TOWN GAME.

In the second game this season with
Libby the Troy boys smashed their
way to a 1874 victory on the local dia-
mond Sunday afternoon before a large
crowd of fans The two old rivals played
hard and fast ball with constant urge
for the victory. There were no sensa-
tional home runs to electrify the fans
but close plays, clean pitching and OBJ
vious errors gave them plenty of ex-
citement. Libby, perhaps, was playing
a little off their game but the Troy team
seemed to be up and fighting in good
old style.
Bill Lindsey chucked splendid game,
gaining 10 strike-outs Kidder played
a tight and hard game behind the bat,
with Walt Morrison clamping down on
the ball at first base. Leland McNeill
upheld his record with his excellent
work in center field.
Martin Patt gave the Troy boys plen-
ty to worry about in the first five in
nings, retiring the batters rather regu-
larly until they seemed to locate his
ball and lift it over the infield.
With a $40 victory for Libby and a
1874 for Troy. there will have to be

but the youngsters retaliated in the last
few innings by jumping to IL runs and
holding them there. Sunday they went
