SherbrOoke Paper
Praises Our Celebration

A very fair and impartial story
of the Sherbrooke game here on
July A appeared in Tuesdays
Sherbrooke Record with some
highly complimentary remarks
about our big celebration. In
the opening paragraph the writer
says:
"Scores Of Sherbrooke baseball
fans motored down to st. Johns
bury Monday only to see the locals
deservedly beaten by score Of 8
to 8. Gaudet was in the box for
the locals, but complained of
sore arm and his lack of speed
and the issue of five bases on balls
clearly evidenced the fact that he
was not in condition to pitch. He
only struck one man out during
the whole game and was touched
up for Is hits. He held his own
pretty well until the fifth, but the
successive four innings spelled
disaster"
In running account of the
game In referring TO MolyneuX
being called out at second for not
touching the base on his three base
hit, the Record saws, at was a
piece Of real hard luck, but Molly
neux alone was responsible"
: Their story concludes with fine
appreciation of our celebration as
follows: "a large crowd attend
ed the ball game and st. Johns
bury put on an entertainment
which put the local Dominion day
celebration entirely in the shade.
All roads led to St. Johnsbury
Monday and the days program
included hill climbing contest for
autos, horse riding contests, pa
rades, carnival, dancing, base ball
game, and multitudipous decora-
tons, with every store closed and
suitably bedecked, while four
bands provided the music"
