Winter Haven - % 8 IA 1854
One of the largest crowds of the
season congregated at the Athletic
Field yesterday to witness the dou-
ble-header between Barlow and
Lakeland, and incidentally to use a
fan with one hand and hold a bot
tie of something cold in the other.
Old Sol was sure right and the way
he cast his feelers over that ball dia-
mond was enough to give bad man
q chance to see what his hereafter
is liable to be. The whole enclosure
was lined with autos and the grand
stand was full to overlooking. They
came from all over Polk county to
see Barlow and Lakeland play, some
to root for Lakeland and some fof
Barlow. The Moose Band appeared
upon the scene and livened things
up with some good music and by the
time play BALI was called excite
ment reigned supreme. At exactly
2:35 the first game started with
Schroeder on the mound for the To-
Gals and L'Hommedieu twirling for
the visitors. Barlow secured tally
in the initial inning on Phillips two
Dagger and Russell's single, and
again in the fifth tailed on an err
ror and single. The locals had
many chances to drive in run but
were not there with the bingles
Tenny was the only man who seemed
to fathom L,Hommedieu's delivery
the sturdy catcher getting three hits
out of three times up. Sawyer got
the other lone hit. It was an excel
lent contest, only two hobbies being
evident, a wild throw to first by
Virgins and Tenny's muff of POP
fly which was Schroeder's ball in
the first place. The final score was
TWO TO nOtnlng.
