'.. m Monday's Daily Yesterday at the Athletic park the final game of the Southeastern Ne braska Baseball League was played In lore a faithful following of base ball enthusiasts who braved the sum mer heat to witness the very well played ball game. By defeating the CCC team the 1, ..,!.- ,.;.w.,,i ,.i .- .i. .-..j I'wif iu me nnai league standings. Preceding the game those in at tendance were treated to some very pleasing music, rendered by the band under the leadership of Peter Grado ville. The game itself was probably one of the best played games staged this reason in the league. From the very first inning it was evident that the game was to be a pitching battle between the dusky CCC hurler. "Smokv" Molden nA .o.i,k.. o . . . ist.

"Herb" then scored on an infield out of Streets. In the sixth inning, "Herb" again led off with a Texas League single. "Hans" followed with a single and these two team mates were again ad vanced on another sacrifice of John Svoboda. "Herb" scampered across the platter for the second time as Streets hit to the Weeping Water second baseman, w ho muffed the ball, and all hands were safe. ' The Platters were able to get two more hits, one by "Dusty" Rhoades in the seventh and one by "Hans," who blasted out a double in the eighth. "Gabby" was without a doubt the main factor in the local victory, but credit must be given to all the locals who played a clean, hustling, fight ing ball game. Four errors were checked up against the Merchants, but with rival men on the bases, the local defense was almost unpene trable. After the battle was over, the tri umphant Merchants were given treats YOUR business or family budget should include not only a lire insurance premium but an item to cover the cost of other forms of protection, such as burglary, rent and business interruption in surance.
