Show Logan City Has Half Holiday Everything Peaceable but Wellsville Wallops Wal-lops Local Ball Team 10 to 0. Tiie Hrst' mid-week tiiiir holiday or the series that Is to be given during the summer mpnths was remarkable , for nothing In particular. The busl- - ncss houses.wlth the exception of the - three large Implement houses, closed i Thursday at noon and remained clos- ' cd. The saloons, drug stores, and can- ', ly kitchens opened at six o'clock as per agreement. A ball game relieved tho monotony of the afternoon, and at , night there was a dance, a Scandln- I li avian celebration and a colored con- t ji 5r cert, tlieso latter two not necessarily fj arranged by those who hoped to make the afternoon one of recreation and p pleasure. jj The Ball Game. ; was merely a demonstration that the i Maughan family of Wcllsvlllo Issu- prcmoontho diamond up to date. A bunch of ball enthusiasts who have been practicing around in back alleys for a few days went up against the Wellsville team on the H. Y. C. campus cam-pus and gave their visitors ten runs, generously lefus'ugto take any thbm. selves. The local boys showed up well In thoso $700 C. C. C. suits and a goodly good-ly crowd was down to cheer them on to victory, but thev couldn't deliver the goods This Is mentioned merely as a fact, and not as a ciltluism, for it would be unreasonable to expect the Logan tc.im, newly organized and without even one practice, to defeat a team such as the Maughan aggregation' aggrega-tion' from Wellsville Is known to be. The Logan bojs propose to get In somo good practice work and meet all comers Thursday afternoons. Next Thursday, a Mlllvllic team will be here, One feature of note was the debut of Leo Jenkins as a pitcher, batter and all 'round profesh, The young man shoves billiard balls at tho hall on Main, but he knows baseball, too, and is one of brightest promise |
