This Sure Was Some Game The young men of ball playing inclinations, residing east of Murray, have organized two teams, one known as the Rock Bluffs team and the oth er as the Kenosha team. They ar ranged last Sunday to play on the grounds owned by Captain Harrison Gayer, and while Earl Hutchison looked after the management of the Rock Bluffers, Fred Neal did the same for the team from Kenosha. The game was an exciting one from start to finish and no one could say that he had spent his time in vain watching the boys roll up the runs, r.s they were very unsuccessful dur ing the first eight innings. An then, when it looked like the game might have to be prolonged into the night in order to determine the winners, the Kenoshaites came to bat and made a dash for victory, being suc cessful in getting some twenty-one runs, and felt rather safe as pennant winners. But the Rock Bluffers would listen to no such noise, and in their inning piled up some twenty-two runs before they could be headed off. The contesting teams will try it again next rummer. J. R. C.
