city series the Corhin team alone
bcttered them, the Pirates and Fal-
cons losing out in the preliminary
games between the two clubs.
In the game last Sunday the Ken
sineton boys played fine game, al
though they wcrn defeated, and had
! it not been that the battery of Berg

| hittable offcnso the final result of
| the series might have been different.

! tlne game it played and the good
workmanship that was exhibited.
