A FEW MONROE ITEMS. In a farce game Monday the Monroe Greys defeated the Geneva Shamrocks by a score of 12 to 3. The game was slow as the locals completely played rings around the visiting team. The feature of the game was the pitching of Smoke Smelzer for the locals, who fanned fourteen men. during the play. Although the day was cool and. somewhat rainy, the crowd was fairly large and the boys feel satisfied, weather' conditions considered. Next Sunday, June 9th, the Ft. Wayne Senecas will be here to cross bats with the Greys. They are reported ns a fast bunch and the game will no doubt be interesting. Arrangements are being made to erect a grand stand on the grounds west of town and everything done to make It comfortable forth/ spectators.
