After two innings of furious fire- works, the scoreboard showed six runs for Company IT and four mark- ers for Company I. Then with Company I threatening to tie up the ccore, Dolly Gray managed to lose the ball and the game was called on account of darkness. “The um- pires sold out,” was Company’s I claim and Company II was crowned for 1936.

He has won a flock of ball games in the years that have passed, but it is extremely doubtful if his victories were ever more welcome than they are today.
