day afternoon. Cove players showed
up strong, and. though the local took
frequent turns at lining out safeties,
all fear of defeat vanished from the
visiting adepts after the second Inning."
By clustering hits and taking advan
tage of an error matinee, the Boosters
gained a lead early, only to be over
taken and passed. '
Nelson, the Perry twlrlcr. was not
supported, and soon allowed a "swat

displaced him, but It availed nothing,

about by reason of the fact that Mr.

and effective scheme of advertising.

mind of the tourist, as to where tho
cherries came from. All westbound

long as the cherry season lasts. All
