The loosing bat- tery played well together, but the team failed to give the necessary support, The Greenbank nine, took the lead in the second by scoring two runs, two more were added in the third, four more in the . fourth. Thirty-one went to the plate in five innings, eleven singles and one double and a walk told the story. M. Luke had a perfect night, 3 for 3, also J. C. Dyer, 2 for 2. Fos- ter and Beare had 1 for/4. Murray Lee and Mac Christie 2 for 4. R. Lee 1 for 3, The Greenbank bat- tery was in command throughout. Lloyd Lee kept on top of the situa- allowed 4 hits well scattered and the team backed him with only one error, not figur- ing in the score. The team looks good' and ought t have more sup- port from the community. Profanity does not make for good sport. This is always regretable on a play ground. It is neither pleas- ant nor profitable to the people on the side lines. We claim the right of every player to differ with the umpire's decision, but in the heat of the game it is unsportsmanship to emphasize difference with vulgar language. Good sport and manli_ ness never gloops to insult the crowd or umpires in this way. Let us be big inside. Rumors have it that some of our team are cultivating a habit for practice on the Sabbath, on the school grounds. This to us is not conducive of exemplary conduct, surely there is opportunity to get together during the six days of the Hoe Tor So-onna tion. in individual m play.
