LAKE CHARLES ATHLETICS WERE SHUT OUT
BY THE FAST WORK Of LOCALS TO0

tuesday, on the local diamond
the Welsh tea m defeated the Lake
Charles Athletics 5 to 5. OIevia
pitched this game with Koch he
hind the bat. Reynolds men tried
hard through the game to cover
the big lead run up by the locals
through a series of safe hits and
shrewed plays but they were out
done on every attempt. The grand
stand was wild throughout the
game.
With confidence lent by the
victory the day before, and Dutch
Vo8ol on the pitchers mound, the
locals trOtted to their positions on
the diamond Wednesday after
noon determined to do just what
they did. They wanted to take the
too confident Reynolds men to a
first class cleaning; wanted their
goat. 1t was no accident or circum-
stance, but a premeditated plan
backed by pep, vim, vigor and
ability. The Reynolds men were
shut out by a score of 7 to 0.
The Lake Charles Press has
been cenSured for not reporting
the results of Tuesdays and We'd
nesday'S games and the Journal
is liable to part of the same criti-
cism for the same reason. The
official score was not turned in
to the Press and the Journal now
finds itself unable to get the book
for reason that it was sent to Lake
Charles, however we want the
world to know that we are proud
of our base ball team and are with
them whether they win or lose.
