Baseball
Saturday the locals journeyed to
Strasburg to open their county league
season and were turned back by a
score of 7-3. For seven innings the
spectators were treated to as tight
an exhibition of our national past
time as could be wished for, but in
the last half of the eighth, the locals
infield crumbled which, combined
with several walks and hits permit
tied Strasburg to score four runs and
consequently hung up it's first vic
tory. Both teams are to be COM
mended for playing clean, sports
manlike ball. We know this attitude
will continue.
