Upon tho outcome OF the contests
rests the 1920 title. Central, Business
and Western were tied up IN the
championship series. Central PLAYED

Mount Pleasant boys gained their de-
cision on the rather loose felding OF
the Business lads and the fact that
Claiming Walker held the Stenoss
down to two hits.
Tomorrow game will be the last
for two crack athletes from the
schools. Dick Newly. Central star
all-around athlete. is playing the ma
game Of his career at Central. New

and Jump event, won his letter in ten
mis- and in basketball in addition tc
being on the baseball team for the
past two years.
Handiboe and Hughes are down tc
work tomorrow's game. II is ex'
pected that Frank Krupp will do tho
hurting for Central and Reece Hail
the pitching for Western. krupp was
slammed off the rubber by the West
erners and was taken out in the las'
game in which the teams met. whlcf
was won by Western and 6.
The teams are pretty well matched
and the contest is expected TO be un
usually well contested
