at the highest pitch „ • Every
body on C. H. S. play fine. The
box score resulted in 19 to 28 in
favor of our own school. The
ball players were served with
refreshments, and Estacado re-
turned home and will stay, until
they think they can play ball.
Good results are expected this
year. Games with several
schools are predicted and our
team will go to Lorenzo Nov. 4,
to carry off again the fruits
of victory. With the help and
boosting of the home people.
I jeel confident that Crosbyton

through the valiant playing' of
the ball team. Don't fail to see

account of the game Friday will
be given. Boost the school and
give the team a name. v
