The most interesting event of the day
was the baseball game between the
team, representing the Butte Reduc-
ton works, and the Alerts of Ana
conda. The game was won by the local
club by a score of 16 to a. Although
the score would make it appear that
the Alerts won hands down, this was
far from being the case, and the local
boys had to work hard to get the Tic-
tory. The Alerts won by punching
their hits
"Mcky' Lynch, for the Alerts

men and only giving two passes to

game.

terday. He made three hits. single.
