NOVEL BALL CANE
At new ROCKFORD
Ladies of Catholic and Con-
gregational Churches
Meet in Game

New Rockford, July 8.-The best
and most eagerly watched ball game
Of the eas vas played by the girls
IND women Of the Congregational and
Catholic churches.
The game was called at GAS p. m.
sharp with Mrs. I. Amondson and Miss
Minnie Syftestad as the battery for
the Congregationalists and the Byron
girls for the Catholics.
The two teams had been practicing
for the past two weeks and as a re-
suit it was the most interesting game
seen on the home diamond.
The two professional score keepers
hired for this occasion were w. c.
Dresser and W. A. Farmer with sam
Rich as official umpire.
About the fourth inning the team
were not satisfied so Tom Sharkey was
called into even up the decision.
The largest crowd ever seen at a
ball game was there to root for their
respective favorites and the music for
the occasion was furnished by the
Midway City band which was much
enjoyed by all the fans present.
At the end of the seventh inning the
game was called on account of dark
ness at which time the score keepers
announced the tally, W. A. Farmer
having 14-15 in favor Of the Congre-
gationalists, while w. C. Dresser had
1914 in favor Of the Catholics, SO
they'll hav to decide who is the WIN
ner among themselves, but we think
that the w teams are the best
matched that ever touched the fertile
soil of a baseball diamond.
The proceeds amounting to ABOUT
800 was divided between the two
churches, each receiving an equal
part.

this time. and will soon be out again,
