One Of the best ball games seen
in Ladysmith in this year of grace,
1917, was witnessed by $3.50 worth
of people-that being the amount
of the colection-at the fair grounds
Monday between the business mems
team and the professional men.
There was no air of sadness among
the professionals though they lost,
to 2, for it was a day of real sport,
good snappy ball, a few errors fair
y good fielding, some excellent
baserunning and : pitching that held
the hits down pretty close. Griffin
was on the mound for the business
men and Woodwork for the profess
SIGNALS. Doughty and Johnson, back
stops, handled the ball well, the for
mer making two classy catches of
fouls.
