College Nine Lost to English High

The College nine was defeated in a close but loosely played game by English High School yesterday on Soldiers Field by the score of 8 to 7. The College nine easily out batted English High and made six earned runs to their two, but lost the game through errors.

Rogers's hitting was the feature of the game; in five times at bat he made a home run, a three-base hit, and two singles. In the ninth, with the score 8 to 6 and only one out, it looked as though the score might be tied; Rogers made a three-base hit and came home on Foster's single; Foster stole second, but Bolton filed to shortstop, and deWindt was thrown out at first, ending the game.
