NO VICTORY.
-Tic Concord and Statesville Teams Fall
to Gain a Victory from Each Other
Not as Good a Game as the Day Be-forc-Some
Trouble Arose.
Our baseball team returned
l$mo Friday night from States
ville after playing a two days
cnagement on the diamond.
Oar boys were defeated in the
game on Thursday but on Friday
neither team gained the victory,
as the score stood 1 1 to 11.
The following scores were made
by innings : In the first inning
Concord scored two runs, and
Statesville gained one run. In
the second neither scored, neither
v as there a run 1 scored in the
third inning. The StateBville
boys made three 'runs on us in
the fourth inning, and we failed to
show anything.
Ai this juncture a row ensued
by a young man of the States
Tille team calling one of our boys
something that is not admired and
the Iredell boy experienced the
blows of a young man who is
probably skilled in bag punching.
A row followed and somewhat of
a disturbance ensued. We are
glad to know that our boys had
reason to complain and even
gome of the Statesville team were
honest enough to censure their
players for such conduct. '
In the fifth inning both sides
scored several runs, and m the
end of the sixth Concord had
9 and Statesville 6. No runs
were made in the seventh. In tho
eighth Statesville scored two and
Concord followed suit, making us
11 to 8. But in the ninth inning
the Iredell boSmade three runs,
and neither could claim the vio
tory. The tie -was not played off
as the boys barely had time to
catch the train.
Our boys are not much elated
over the treatment received by
their brother players A while in
their hands, but nevertheless
every effort will be made to get
them here and they will be treated
like every other ball team mad
to feel that they, are at home and
that "rooting" has noplace ex
cept on the diamond. ?

nation of President Scherer. If
the resignation be accepted the
Board will also proceed r tcv make

Our second nine, termed
"Wheeler's " Cavalry," returned
home Friday night in high glee,
having taken the baseball honors
from the Charlotte team of the
same calibre. Only a few peo
ple! witnessed the game and the
gate receipts amounted to only
$6.25, but our boys got the whole
amount which helped to defray
the expenses. Charlotte lost in a
score of 10 to 9. . Our boys say
that they had to play against the
young men instead of the boys
but nevertheless played them
well.
