Five league games have drawn growing crowds in the Sun’s Sunday School baseball round up. The grand stand was nearly full for a double header on Wednesday as local farmers tail off harvest duties. The Sun’s Red Gordon reports in a light tone from the field noting an eventful day at bat. Christians beat Presbyterians 4–1 on Thursday, Baptists 9–3 over Methodists on Friday, Christians 11–3 over Presbyterians on Monday, and a Wednesday slate with Methodists 4–3 and Baptists 10–6 over Presbyterians. An accident saw Gilmore Webster collecting a two-base hit amid the action. Presbyterians led early, with City Marshal Montgomery stealing bases repeatedly but nearly exhausted him.
