The host Ada baseball team defeated Waynesfield-Goshen 10-4 in a non-conference game Tuesday evening. The Bulldogs improved to 6-4 with the win, while W-G fell to 1-6 with the defeat.

Ada led 3-2 after one inning, then broke the game open with a five-run second frame. Sophomore center fielder Zac Swaney doubled, hit two singles and scored three runs. He also swiped four bases to ignite the Ada offense. On defense, Swaney made a nice tumbling third inning catch on a deep Tiger fly ball. Junior Phillip Coulson singled, scord two runs and drove in another while stealing three bases.

Ada Junior Civic League members met at Dear Darling Boutique in Ada, with the owner Rayel Rose, to tour the shop and do some shopping.

She said that the name of the shop had its origin in the Song of Solomon 4:7 “You are altogether beautiful, my darling, beautiful in every way.”

She will close the storefront soon and will continue her business online. Meanwhile she is offering good sales in the boutique.

Members continued their meeting at the home of Anna Poling.  Cohostess was Colleen Marshall. Sherry Evans led the business meeting. Jamie Wills, Ways and Means pecan chair, reported that there are seven bags of pecan pieces and one bag of halves left to sell.
