High School Defeated by Alumni in Early Baseball Clash
In a lively morning game at Landale Field, the fast high school squad fell behind early as the alumni rallied with strong hitting and solid pitching. Rosa Weygandt started for the high school, but fading support led to her exit. Cameroo replaced her and held the alumni to five runs over seven innings. Carl Weyngndt started for the alumni, with H Bricker finishing, while Alonzo Switch delivered a notable leaping single on a deep fly. Attendance was modest, with umpire Weygandt performing well despite limited rule familiarity.
