Brook Defeated College in Ball Game Played Decoration Day.

St. Joe’s ball team suffered defeat at Brook Monday afternoon, when Whiting, the star young twirler, let the college lads down without a hit or a run, scoring one of the cleanest shut-outs ever played in this part of Indiana. McGurren, who has always been a puzzle to the Brook batters, also pitched gilt-edged ball, and allowed only two hits, but they came along with errors and Brook was able to cross the home pan twice in safety. It was a great game and was witnessed by a large crowd. The game was played at Brook. Thursday afternoon of this week the St. Joe boys will play St. Ignatius, of Chicago, on the St. Joe campus. St. Ignatius defeated the local college earlier in the season and is an old rival that St. Joe has always found hard to down. It is the team that Hanks played with last year. ‘ ,
