Silvis Easy for Davis and Company
The Silvis regulars defeated Pearl City 8 to 1 in a weekend matinee at the fair grounds park. Terry twirled the ball for Silvis, limiting Muskies to singles while Kremer debuted for Davis and Galena observers noted his effort. Fielding miscues and damp conditions marked the game as the locals bloomed with errors, though Davis and crew plated enough to secure the win.
