organization of a new troop. Six new
boys were admitted at the meeting of
Troop No. > at the Presbyterian

appointed scoutmaster for the new

Under the motto of "Helpfulness"

boys are planning to raise vegetables

the order.

favored it. But being unaware of the

they did suggest that the wording OF

the change. Then F. 4. Silcox cx-

The West Side team scored it's
initial triumph at home. The Jumbo
district team won its first game on
alien soil, defeating the Bruin Juniors
on their diamond at the north end Of
Higgins avenue.
The opening day was marked by so
many brilliant successes that the one
disaster caused little dismay. In the
course of the Bruins East Side game
some one hit a hot liner through Il
| window, and playing was suspended
| until the league had paid an indemnity
of Is cents.
Ulrigg, pitcher for the West Side
| team. was hero of his game. He
| struck out 90 men. establishing the
| initial league record. He was hard
pressed, at that, by Ross of the South
Side nine, who famed an even dozen.
