No. 205 LAKELAND WON GREAT GAME YESTERDAY In the fastest game that has been played on the home grounds this season, the Lakeland team defeated the fast team from Fort Meade in a ten inning contest by a score of one to nothing. It was a pitchers' bat- tle from start to finish, neither twirler having anything on the oth- er, although Beck fanned twelve men and Gillespie but seven. It was one of those kind of games that keeps the player and the spectator “on their toes” all the way, and in many a tight place hearts rose and fell. Time and time again it looked as if Lakeland would score, time and time again it looked as if Fort Meade would do likewise, but every time a ightning like play removed all pos- sibility. A bevy of pretty girls came up from Fort Meade with the team, also quite a number of rooters, and their words of encouragement went a long ways. It must have been dis- heartening to lose a contest like that but the OLD LAKELAND LUCK was richt there again. This contest was similar to the one played in Dade City when our boys were victorious by the same score, winning in the ninth on an error through first.
