Sunday School league baseball games draw strong support
The Sunday Schools completed their organization and opened with Baptist beating Methodist 5–3 on June 20. A June 22 game ended 14–5 for the Baptists, while a Christians vs Methodist clash went 7–6 after a nine inning rally. Nicolett hit a home run and three doubles were noted, with fans urged to attend to back the team for the Howard's Confectionery Loving Cup. Games incur expenses for grounds, bats, and equipment, and contributions go to United Charities if funds remain.
