MANNINGTON, July II. The
American Legion baseball team has
never been satisfied with the result
of the game played at Blackhere
Park with the Boys Club, and it
was announced this morning that
another game between the two
teams has been scheduled. 1t Is
possible that they may meet to-

With the exception of the last
inning. the game Friday was very
interesting. IN the seventh. how
ever, the Legion nine let down suf-
ficiently to allow the Boys Club
to run in three scores which made
the final score somewhat sone-sided
The Legionaires are determined
that the result must be different
next time, and will play harder than
ever. it is assured.
