Y M C A Team Plays Engravers In Early Dark Loss

The Engravers and Y M C A teams started a scheduled game last evening but could not finish due to darkness. The umpire halted play after the first half of the third inning with the Y team leading 6 to 0. The result does not count as five innings were not completed. The Chronicle notes shorter evenings require faster play and earlier starts. A doubleheader is hoped next week if possible with Nauman and Post Office games also on the slate.
