The Junior division has always boasted of having winning baseball teams and is keeping up its reputation this year as well as ever. i The Juniors, although not as strong as they were last year, are well able to cope successfully with any teams in their class. They have broken into the College League and have for some time kept a tight hold' on first place. The Juniors did not receive a handicap as the team did the preceding year, but had to win all their games by superior playing and, of course, an ocea- sional t'horseshoe. . ' Owing to their appearance in the Teague, the Juniors were unable to get -as many outside games as would otherwise have been the case. Their first outside game resulted in a victory over the Belmont Juniors by the score of 2 to- 1. T'he game was verv close and exciting throughout. The Juniors assumed the lead early in the game and held it during the remaining innings. Their next game was an easy victory over St. Michael's Y. M. S., second, by the large score of 23 to Jr. The Juniors scored in every inning, due largely to their excellent. stickworlc. Their schedule includes games with the Taeomahs, llfanakahs, Belmont Juniors, Young Prospects and others. The team is com- posed of J. Seitz, catcher, H. Neumer, pitcher, J. Martin, first base, C.

1 Leagues were again a great success in the second division this year. A handball league was begun towards- the end of September, and Smith and Rayner proved best in the 'CNatienal7' League with a percentage of 905. IC. Deneen and Liddle took the title in the HE-astern League. The Winners in the National League proved themselves champions by defeating beth the Bearders and the Day Scholars. Smith defeated Rayner for the championship of the division. The prizes awarded vvereatvvo hand- some Watch fobs. The Basket-ball League kept the division occupied during the long winter months, besides creating a' lively interest in the race for first place. The St. Louis team took first place rather easily, so the contest was mostly among the other teams for a place in the first division. Each member of the St. Louis team vvas p-resented a .handsome stickpin. I -p 1 I The pins were small golden b-asketballs, crossed by a blue band, upon which were the letters C. 0. B. B.
