Baldwin-De Soto, ppd.

Baldwin City — Baldwin High School’s home football game against De Soto was called because of an advancing severe thunderstorm.

The decision to call the game came after a 90-minute delay at the start of the contest because of lightning visible to the west.

Because of Baker University’s homecoming football game this afternoon and a soccer match in the evening at Liston Stadium, where Baldwin High plays its home football games, the game will be played at 6 p.m. today at Free State High.
