The teams played evenly until
the fifth inning when the Colts
manager thought it advisable to
take Hunter the box, but
was unable to find another man
to stem the tide, the fina! score
being 9 to 6. The CG. G.’s have

the season and have never stop-

have always played a clean game
of ball, but in playing many new
