Big Time at Brussels
Thuteday afeernoop ahs evening of
last week saw some lively deluge on
the sport program of Brussels. Day
was breezy with threatening rain but
people turned out from miles roundand
took in the fun.
First came a League Base Ball
match between Blyth and Brussels
which afforded deep interest from the
feet that the soots see -sawed eo that
the victory was not placed until the
close of the game. Both teams had
their batting clothes on and the score
was 21-20 in favor of Brussels, Bobs
Campbell and W. McCann was the
home battery while Spafford and
Laidlaw did the twirling for the visi-
tors. A number of Blythites witneee-
ed the match.
Next came the Kinburn—Brussels
Senior Foot Ball League tussle. It
was a contest web worth witnessing
and was free from either rough play
or seems of any kind. The visitors
are a gentlemanly.' bunch . and play
great ball, one feature being their
combination work but Brussels prov-
ed worthy competitore and although
there were close calls on both goale
there was uo scoring and the hour's
play resulted in a draw, 0-0. F. J.
Kelly, Listowel, was the Refree,
There was a great crowd and both
teams were heartily supported
throughout the matches they battled
for victory.
An adjournment was then made to
the Main street, lead by Seaforth
Kiltie Band and the street dancing,
advertised was entered upon and kept
up for hours. The Wroxeter Orch-
estra supplied a musical program and
the Band took a hand and it was a
real jam-up time.
Financial proceeds went to the Base
Bali management after expenses
were paid. The hydro street lamps
supplied fine light and there was a
free and easy air that appeared to be
enjoyed by the crowd assembled.
