Saturday afternoon the Askov Jun

by a score of to 2. The stellar

out Is batters and allowed but four
hits. The Kerrick boys held the
locals scoreless until the eighth in
ming, at which time they staged a
rally netting them the eight runs.
Twelve men faced the pitcher in this
inning. The game last week played
between Askov and kerrick at the
Kerrick diamond, was not such a
happy one insofar as the Askov boys
were concerned-they received a trim
ming to the tune of II to 4. Raymond |
Clegg was the losing pitcher of this
game.
