SPORTI Sport Results on To go into details with this game iwould be almost {impossible, there {were so many of them. Suffice it to say that it was a very loosely played |game. There was plenty of hard | hitting and plenty of errors, while oc- | casionally there would be a brilliant | play either in the outfield or the in- !fleld. There also was some nifty base running. | Each team showed the need of con- | siderable practice, but in this respect |the Stanley Workers were the most {noticeable. Captain Frost, who was behind ‘the bat, for the losers, worked | hard but worked in hard luck and the ierrors chalkpd up against him do not |indicate that he was not in the game every minute. Hayes, who caught Chant, was a tower of strength to the young twirler and also helped out with the willow, getting four runs and batting for 1000, getting three | bingles in as many times at bat. | Artie Campbell, former Ploneer catcher, gave perfect satisfaction as umplire.
