GOOSE-EGGED.Blues Handed a Lemon by Plaquemine

Maroons at Persimmontown-Same

Teamas to Meet Tomorrow

on Local Lot.

The Blues went up against theirboo-doos at Plaquemine last Sunday,and, as usual, met defeat at the handsof the Persimmontown aggregation,being handed a large, juicy lemon inthe shape of a brilliant coat of kal-souine. Lefebvre, the Maroons'speedy fooler, was in splendid formand although the locals touched himup for seven bingles-one of them atwo-bagger by Wallace Prejean-hekept them from connecting with theball when hits meant runs and inci-dentally chalked up ten strike-outs.

Gondolti officiated in the box for the

Blues and for the first three inningswas touch-me-not, but in the fourth

Ed. Wilbert slammed out a safety and

Bauer followed with a two-sacker,after which Dan seemed to let upconsiderably, permitting the Ibervill-

iaus to slice off live more hits duringthe remainder of the game, including

a homer by Ed. Wilbert over the cen-

ter-field fence in the seventh inning.At the conclusion of the painful

spectacle the score-book looked likethis:

The Maroons and Blues will hook-up again tomorrow afternoon on thelocal lot, and it needn't be added thatthe game is likely to prove the fastest Iand hottest of the season. Our own"Bob" Murch, who arrived here thisweek from Gulfport, Miss., where he h asbeen pelforming great stunts with theGulfport team of the Cotton StatesLeague, will hold down second basefor the Blues, and as the team hasotherwise been strengthened and re-viviged, it's a cinch bet that the Per-simmontown aggregation will not coptomorrow's game with the same easewhich has characterized their previousvictories over the Donaldsonville dia-mond heroes. The Blues are just asstrong as the Maroons in practicallyevery position, and if they play theright kind of ball should win goingaway. The excitement will beginpromptly at 3:30 o'clock.
