played game and neither team was at
all pleased with the exhibition they
put up.
Glover and Kershaw are scheduled
to play in Rock Hill this afternoon.
Kershaw is said to have one of the
best high school teams up state and
there is no question of the fact that
Clover is good. Glover went to Ker-
shaw two weeks ago for a game; but
rain prevented.
Lee Killian, Glover High pitching
ace got married few days ago; but
that's no reason why he should not
continue to pitch n good brand of
ball. Killian, however, has the dis
tinction of being the only married
high school baseball player in the
state.
- Yorkville High would like very
much for some big hearted fan or q
bunch of them to come along and pre-
sent the baseball squad with new
uniforms and other paraphernalia
The treasury of the club is almost de-
funct and in fact it is said that tho
team is quite up against it finan-
cially. Judging from the brand ol
ball put up so far the team is quite
deserving of support.
