you accomplished it.

Acosta, who is on the roster of
the Miami club, also played on the

as far as can understand, Baker

Ubieta is not hitting. He has

hitter for Mitchell on Thursday,
and came through well. / wish
there were a few more Key West
boys on that Miami Beach club so

Talking about the local boys, I
hope that the clubs get together

league. / think if the three man.

At diamondball I saw on Friday

Gillentine, pitched for the dairy
men, and A. Bethel, a former Key

Walterson. Gonzalez played at
second; Ubieta, third; Baker, IS;
Acosta at first--a real Key West

boys that played on the club were
A. and D. Walterson. Lucilo Con-
zalez was responsible for the win
ming run when he sacrificed d.
Walterson home in the seventh in

In the first frame, Gonzalez
walked, advanced to second when
Ubieta was thrown out at first.
