Cresco Defeats Lansing.

The game last Sunday was some
! what of Z disappointment as the Lam
sing team had defeated most of it,
opponents, but proved easy picking for
the Cresco team. Lansing was shut
out while Cresco accumulated nine
scores. The boys from the river we're
no match for the prairie boys in any
respect. Dye pitched hot game for
Cresco and our infeld gave the usual
star support. Michselson's spectacu-
lar run from third in the seventh in
ming earned q score for Cresco and the
applause of the crowd.
Judging by the size of the crowd, the
receipt being about $40O, the effort Of
the team is highly appreciated and the
promoters of the games are highly en-
couraged for their effort to provide
some good, clean sport.
Next Sunday Cresco will play Decor
ah at the latter place. 1t is expected
that the two next games will also be
played away from home. but thereaf-
