The Libby Midgets again went
down to defeat before the Troy
Midgets on the Libby diamond last
Friday night, the visitors winning
by a score of 3 to |. The Libby
lads are much younger than their
Troy opponents and are not strong
enough to win over the brand OF
ball put up by the Troy team. Heath,
sent in to pitch for Libby after Nor
tenson had allowed six runs, held
the Troy sluggers to two additional
runs. Although on the losing end
of the score throughout, the Libby
youngsters had the true fighting
spirit and didn't seem at all down
cast even though they were losing.
