It was a thrilling battle, with light hitting and a few juicy errors feat- uring the contest. Leland Ashton and Glenn Johnston were the rival pitch- ers and both were effective, especially. with nien on the base lines. Art Mc- Laughlin was the leading hitter, with four singles to his credit, two being of the scratch variety. Itt their final. innings both teams made a big effort to increase• their score, each had three runners on the paths, but no tally re- sulted. To select star players would be unfair, as every man gave his best, but it was gratifying to note the high degree of sportsmanship displayed by players and spectators alike.
