| The weather was very unfavorable, q
high wind prevailing and interfering
with the play, otherwise errors would
have been fewer and scores lower. The
game was far better than we expected to
see, at times professional, at times very
exciting, always interesting. Western

players were gentlemen ali and there
were no scraps and but little wrangling.
The uniforms were natty, Elko in white,
Battle Mountain in blue and white.
The Battle Mountain ladies' particularly
supported their home team, fourislling
parasols, wearing colors, splitting the
air with:

You re too slow!''

the grief OF defeat.
