COBuRN and dean
AC ADE M Y PLAY
TIE CAME, z And z

Coburn and Dean Academy played to a
field Friday afternoon, the final score be-
ing to 2. The game was called at the
end of the ninth inning by agreement as
it started raining just before the game
began and continued all through the con-
test. The article of baseball which was
put up by the two teams was of the very
highest order and in spite of the rain and
the wet and slippery diamond there were
very few errors and the game was cleanly
played and quite fast. The wet grounds
did not seem to bother the Dean boys as
undoubtedly had some effect on the result,
of the game. In practically every in
ming each team had men on the bases
and in the most of them the pitchers
would then tighten up and strikeouts
would result or pop flies that would be
taken care of by the feeders. The feature
play of the game was made by Catcher
keefe of the Dean team, who went to his
own bench after a high fly captured it
and held on to it although he went head
long over the bench in doing it. In the
next inning he also went to the bench
and captured fly which was about the
same. He caught fine game and put
lot of ginger into the work of his team.
Woodman, the Dean pitcher, hurled fine
game and fielded in great shape having
six assists and no errors. Alberts, the
Coburn shortstop, put up good fielding
game while the hitting Of Kolseth and
Paganucci was the feature Of their play.
McElwee behind the bat caught a fine
game handling Fagan's shoots In good
shape The Dean boys did q good real or
grabbing, the most of which from the
grandstand appeared to be entirely I'M
called for. Their entire bench rose In
protest over a called third strike, and
again one Of their men called out at first.
although in the case at first the man did
not get to the base. Everyone regretted
that the day could not have been a IA
vorable one as it is almost certain that
great game would have been seen. The
score:
