AM. WooLEN TEAM PROVED TOO
 STRONG FOR OFFICE TEAM

"The old story. that youth must be served, was once more proven when the Mill Team took the honors from the Office Team by score of ' to 0, Thursday night. The battery for both sides deserves a lot of credit. Bennett the star office twirler, had a hard time to place the ball so Dean could be kept from running back to the car line, it was remarked from the bleachers that Bennett had a pret- ty ball suit. Dean is reported to have carried a bale of rags to use as a protector but some of the fans came to the conclusion that it was O'Brien's shirt. Stelzner the first baseman seem ed to be tall enough but somehow he was aways in the air, he was last seen crawling under the grand stand for one of O'Brien's double jointed arm twirls. Peckham, the star short stop, has the honor of playing one inning all alone but Is still unaware of the fact. It seems as though he wanted to kill the ball when he came to bat by the way he was swinging. He thought he was rowing home to dinner. as he holds the record for crossing the Thames. All he lacked in making homer was one of the oars. O'Brien has often said he missed his calling but as far as a ball player, he would make a good bally hoo ma for some side show. Grieve must have lost his tanglefoot as he gracefully did Nick Altrock' on his only fly
 AS he stepped up to bat and started
 to swing the constable approached him and told him there was only enough wind in Norwich for one wind mill. So Frank sat down and O'Leary who batted for him, found himself safe on first, after a small argument
 He started on his gallant run for second and somehow he and the um- pire, Joe Haskell, found themselves neck and neck as they neared sec ond base. O'Leary was out at sec ond by close play. OLeary claimed he would have beat Haskell but ow- ing to his dogs" giving away was unable to compete with such a good athlete as Haskell Mucahay stopped at the foundry and had a new arm made for the occasion. Clabby show ed up in his old time form and seem- to be the only live one on the team After the game was over they had l their usual amount of alibis to offer
 but the Mill Team have heard of these before. The Office Team want a game for next week but what's the use of beating them again,'-but to give l them a chance to come back the Mil Team has decided to give them Q game sometime in the near future.
 The Mill Team showed up in fine l form, Kip Scoval, no doubt will some l day be with the big leagues he car shoot a ball to second as good as anyone. He is credited with put outs at second, Johnson with his usua ] good hurling allowed only two hits l He was quite sore Friday, his leg: I and arms seemed to be muscle bound | but has found out that turpentint
 and linseed oil will put him back 1T
 shape. They say he is going to takt 1 the heel plates off his shoes before ! the next game. Slim Scoval played his usual stellar" game on first, Smitf was there as usual on second, Mug.
 sey Ellsworth as usual put up a flash,
 exhibition at short. Lesenlann, wht l played third, put up his usual goo( 1 game and made quite hit with tn,
 gypsies. Wheeler, Shy and Brewer dic
 not have much to do, but handled al that came their way in big leagu | style. The attendance was large, 35
 people, S2 gypsies and one constable
 Bedford and Connolly, supplied tn
 boys with water. Haskell and Weele
 umpired in big league style.
