PAGE TWO HIGHS FACE EPSOM IN DIAMOND TILT Game Scheduled for Frank lin County. Village Tomorrow By SEYMOUR DWORSKY Tomorrow the Bulldogs will play Epsom at the foes diamond. It seems that since the Bulldogs hove started taking trips they have, gore on a los ing streak again, well at y rate we hope that they will pull c of it, and win all the games this week, since it is the last week for the local team to go out on the field this year, it is also the last time that some of the play ers will be out on the baseball dia mond fighting for the blue and white. On last Friday the Bulldogs were to have played Middleburg, at Middle burg. Well Coach Miller’s nine were getting batting practice, and getting ready for the game when it started paining, hence they had to pack up and leave Middleburg and turn back. Since Middleburg school was over last week plans are being made to play the game this week if it can be ar ranged. Middleburg is noted for its county famous toam, having lost only one game this year, -would make a good match for Henderson High. And if it can be arranged for a game this week no one would be wasting time if they come out to see the game. eirsiHleni HELD MEM Golfers Will Square Off in Teams Under Captains Strause and Phillips Keen interest is being displayed by golfers in the approaching red and blue tournament for West End Coun try Club Wednesday afternoon, to be followed by a supper in the club house.
