The Bee-Dee Co. team opened the season with a victory by defeating the strong North Western College team on the college campus by the score of 6 to 3. George Richards did the twirling for the Bee-Dees and pitched first class ball while Miller did good work behind the bat. Berg, Masch and Mahnke were the batteries for the college boys. Unfortunately the stunt Creuz tried to perform and pick up the ball with his teeth turned out to be a fizzle and allowed the N.W.C. team their runs, who might have left the diamond with but one run to their credit had it not been for this incident.
