The Benson team this year has been
playing a classy article of base ball,
and at this writing have won five
games straight, without a loss. Will
mar plays at Benson on Sunday, July

be able to make creditable showing,
as victory over Benson is always a.
pleasant morsel for Willmar fans to
digest.

Next Sunday Morris comes here for
return game. Willmar will, in this
contest present their strongest lineup
of the season, and. should get away
with the game. So far this season,
the main fault has been lack of team
play and unity, but this is gradually
being remedied, and one of these days,
the crowd will be surprised by the
neat work of the team. It has been
necessary this year to almost entire
ly reconstruct the infield, and of
course this takes time to get the new
men working smoothly together.
