Local News: The largest baseball crowd of the season, estimated at 1,200, turned out last Sunday at Campbell’s Bay to see Vinton take the opening game from Campbell’s Bay in the Pontiac Senior League. Vinton took the first game in the best of three series by a score of 3 to 1. The game, which went ten innings, was all Campbell’s Bay’s who led Vinton by 1-0 until the opening of the ninth inning, when Vinton scored a run and followed this in the top of the 10th inning with two more. The Campbell’s Bay run was by Martin on Bowie’s hit. Donnelly scored two for Vinton and O’Brien one for the same team.
