on account of absence. Consequently
it is impossible to give full details OF
the game last Sunday with Elysian.
Nevertheless the game was a hot one.

mercifullO hard An exceedingly strong
wind prevented Peg as we'll as others

the ball to its rightful destination. By
virtue of a few walks and of fumb
ling the ball helped Elysian to ring
in on a few more runs. Then, too,
numerous questionable decisions by
one of the umpires completed the luck
for Elysian, making the score 7 to 5

turn game with Elysian on July "a
