The Colts have two
rained-out games to play to
complete their schedule. They
travel to Thorndale tonight and
Newt Collins, assistant manager,
was hoping to arrange a game
with St. Marys for last evening.
The score was tied 5.5 at the
end of seven and a half innings
in a game between the Clinton
Colts and the league-leading
Thorndale ballplayers, but
Clinton - came out on top, with
the scoreboard, tote reading
10-6.

This is the third game which
the club lost in the late innings
