FIRST GAME OF THE SEASON.
The first baseball game of the sea-
son was played here Sunday, Moore
vs. Capitol Hill. This was the first
day our boys had been together this
season, but they played a splendid
game, holding 3 to 0 in their favor
through the first half. Hall, the pitch-
er, became weaker in the last half,
due to insufficient practice, and the
Hill boys began to score. The game
closed 9 to 6 in favor of the Hill, but
our boys are confident that they have
a splendid line-up and are sure of
many victories after they have gotten
into form.
