Although the boys were up against an older bunch of players, Dysart worked for all they got. This score was 5-1 in favor or Dysart, but the game was better than the score indicates. King pitched a good game and was given good support by the men behind him. Heinrich caught good, Carver starred with the big stick, Shearer at 3rd accepted 7 chances without an error.
