WHITING CLUB GIVEN BAD TROUNCING BY LOCALS

The St. Joseph college baseball team defeated St. Cyril Method club of Whiting at the latter place Sunday in a game featured by the pitching of Wellman and the heavy hitting of the collegians. The Red and Purple stickers collected thirteenbase knocks for a total of eleven runs, while Wellman was blanking the home club with three blows. Wellman was credited with pineteen strikeouts while eleven St. Joe batters went the same route. St. Joe exhibited a tight defense and their backers are greatly encouraged over their showing. The Crane, Jr., college of Chicago will display their wares on the St. Joe diamond Thursday. On Sunday the collegians go to Wheatfield for a game.
