Exeter Six in Exhibition Game
Scanning the
The Exeter puckchasers ran
into Harvey Langford’s goal-

locals were bolstered by Cassel
man and Rhude, they were not

and the high-flying Irish out
played them by a fairly wide
margin.
Bevington and Stretton set the
, pace for the winners, scoring
eight of the eleven -goals. The
worked in a nifty combination
that brought them to Smith’s
door-step tim,e after time, Bev
ington scored five goals, while
Stretton caught the hemp on
three occasions. Elson, N. ’Hardy
and Hearn were the other
marksmen for the Irish.
Lucan got off to a good start
banging in three goals in the
first before Lawson retaliated
for the locals. In the second,
they duplicated the feat before
Trites picked the corner of the
net and, in the final session,
wound up with five goals. Cas
selman and Stire scored for
Exeter in that period.

LOCAL FANS this Thursday
night will have a chance to see

handled by Frankie Coleman,
well-known Forest City ball star
who is now attached to the New
York baseball chain and has
played in the outfield for the

results anything can happen.
