BASEBALL LEAGUE STARTS.
Athletics Defeat Squads and Braves
Beat F. of A. Juniors.

After several postponements the
town league got underway Saturday af-
ternoon with two very interesting
games, in which the Athletics won
from the Squads 8 to and the Braves
triumphed over the f. of A. Juniors Z
to 2 after going three innings beyond
the allotted seven, scoring five runs in
the 10th on three hits and three errors.
The playing of the teams in general
was excellent, considering their lack of
practice, and gives promise of some
good sport during the summer, as the
mines are apparently evenly matched.
Thayer led the hitting in the after
noon s sport and turned in an unassist-
ed double play. Cunningham behind
the bat made very favorable impress
sion with the fans.
Preceding the games there was a
street parade by the four teams and
their mascots, headed by the drum
corps. The +. of A. Juniors wore their
new uniforms for the first time and
presented a fine appearance.
A disappointing feature of the after
noon was the small attendance, but the
managers hope for much better patron
age next Saturday. The scores:
