game was evidenced last Sunday
when more than two hundred fans
gathered with only a few hours
notice, to witness the contest be-
tween the Victoria team and the
local Regulars and we'll were they

made, tho there were some rank"
errors. Test was added to the
contest by the fact that three of
the visitors were players who had
helped the Regulars win victories
in other games, -Burleson, Gray
son and Norman. and it put the
home boys on their metal.
The first inning both sides scored
goose egg. For three more. the
visitors scored run in each. but
in the home teams half OF the
fourth, there was a blow up
Peters securing first on a wild
pitch of the third strike; Henry
followed with safe single; O..

base on an error; G. Ilimel famed,
Breda got first on balls; then
Jones and billiard followed with
three base hits, the inning resulted
in six runs.
The visitors could never rally,
and only got one man around the
bags thereafter; and the home
team scored again in the 18th and
8th-ending the game by 8 to 4,
with an inning to spare.
