Good City League
Game for Tonight

In the City league this evening an
other good baseball game is sched-
uled when the Owens and Watson
Building baseball teams play. Owens
will be out to win and it would not be
to hear of a close score, Poe
will likely do the pitching for Owens
and Chenoweth will likely oppose him.
The game this evening will be the
second Of the postponed games which
are being played for the City league
championship.

insist on amending some OF the pro-
visions TO meet their own particular
