RTLAND, Aug. 21—Victoria beat Vancouver 6 to 5 in a close and allegedly “clean” game of la cromse at the ball park here yester. day afternoon. An extra period was required to break a five to five tle, and it was after 20 seconds of play that Cyril Baker of Victoria slammed the winning ball into the net. The game was fast and several ex- citing encounters, looking remark- ably like a combination of an Irish wake, the World war and the rail- read strike, occurred near the goals. Three or four p s took the count, but old lacrosse players sald it was a “mighty clean game.” More than 3,500 pcople saw the game.
