The Audubon habse ball team won
their game with the Dedham nine
last Sunday. Either the Audubon
boys were in fit trim or their oppon-
ents were out of luck, for the score
was very much one-sided. With a
little pep" the Audubon boys ought
to put up a good game. Here's
hoping they will continue their win
ming streak for the balance Of the
season.
