It is estimated that the men and
featured the game yesterday in which
the Bankers walloped the Merchants
with a score of 16 to 11. The empty
soda pop bottles lying around came
near being called into use in the first
half of the ninth when a squabble
arose over the decision of Umpire L.
C. Kay.
With two outs and two men on
bases Northington was sent in as a
pinch hitter and knocked a home run
over left field. Barton was on 3rd
and Woodward on 2nd. Woodward
developed so much speed that he came
very near running over Barton but he
also is alleged to have run so fast
that he neglected to tag the pad at
third and vitiated the three scores
gained by Northington'* home run. j
With the exception of the squabble
in the ninth good humor prevailed,
throughout and no one begrudged the j
quarter they paid^to see the exhibition, j
