out on the short end of scores on sew
eral occasions. BY rallylng IN the
late innings of their game with the
Tourists last Thursday at Ca-Vel, they
eked out a one run margin OF victory
in the tenth inning of the setto. Pow
ell hopes to avenge that defeat to-
morrow.
The Tourists have been bOlstered to
some extent during the late stages of
the season, and will present a combi-
nation tomorrow that should GER
tainly be a winner
Baseball will be had here far into
September according to the manager,
if he can get the support at the turn
stiles he should have. Already sew
eral games have been carded in ad-
dition to the regular league contests,
and the locals are looking forward to
a pickup in attendance. All the play
ers get out of playing is a division in

grew suddenly tense. She flung her bathrobe

manager must just be coming to wish them
an effusive goodbye. He was that sort -

only she felt that horrible inevitability.
Things must 60 on and on. there was never

The gruff voice continued:

She heard her husbands calm answer:
