BORSUM HURLS TERRACE BAY TO VICTORY OVER SCHREIBER In a hardball game played at Schreiber last night (June 15th) Bill Borsum hurled the Terrace Bay team to a 15-5 victory over Schreiber in a seven inning contest. The game was close for the first five innings with Terrace Bay leading 4=5, but the local boys broke loose with a barrage of hits in the sixth inning to sew up the ball game. Johnny Schritt played an excellent game behind the plate for Terrace Baye This was Terrace Bay's first victory over Schreiber in 3 starts and the boys are now hopeful that the practices which they have had recently have really put them in good form and they hope to arrange games with other teams in the near future. 0-0-0 DOMINION DAY CELEBRATION PLANS EXPANDING During the past week a considerable amount of organization work has been done by the committee in charge of the Dominion Day Celebrations.
