Neither team was able to score un- | til the seventh inning, with both] hurlers getting airtight support. In| the seventh frame Glencoe annexed | one tally, and came back with five | markers in the disastrous eighth. Schultz, Glencoe hurler, pitched an | exceptionally fine game, while Lu- chessi, for Winnetka, was equally ef- fective until he weakened in the | eighth. { Winnetka will meet Wheeling at the Playfield diamond this Sunday. It is probable Winnetka will play in Wil- | mette on Decoration Day, with the | possibility that the locals will hook | up in the morning with an aggrega- | tion of Winnetka sxgoligge; stars.
