DALLES RUBS IT
IN 20 TO |

The next game will be with the Van
eouyer team Sunday,
Last Sundays gamer Iou don't
want to hear about it, do you? The
Glacier won't say anything about it.
The Dalles rubbed it in good and hard
and that's enough.
II was pitiable sight to see. Veter-
an PLAYERS fumbled aud stumbled and
made wild throws till the heart OF every
Hood River fan aehed ready to break.
AT 10 stage OF the game were the locals
in the running. To speak plainly, the
boys we're ratified and the playing was
rank. The fact that the visitors had
augmented their nine by the addition
OF three or four men from the Portland
Browns, seemed to unstring the nerves
OF the Hood River boys. They never
got over the ague,
The DaIles team took flying start
and scored four runs in the first inning.
Dunbar's tossup went high in the sky,
and In the next minute Brough found a
safe one that took him to second. The
Hood River pitcher walked two men
and the bases were full. Schmeer
stepped up for smash to the left field.
Tie ball was felded in an ag0nizing
manner and lammed through to first
with the widest sort Of throw. Ma
han finally got it and nearly killed
three spectators at the left Of the grand
stand in an effort to get the ball to the
catcher. During the melee, two men
trotted lelsurely over the home plate
A bungle to Dunbar, coupled with more
erroH at first and second, let two more
men into home, and the Hood River
fans groaned,
Sheets got q grounder out to Williams
and died at first. Haynes swung his
stick through the ozone without resis-
tance, and sat down. Caktner placed
a fly into the hands Of Schmeer, and
the second inning began.
Ball drew first base on balls and then
finished his trot around the ring while
the locals were trying to tie up with
the horsehide sphere. Mahaffey's ter
rifle line drive landed safely in Dun
bars hands, and the bIeachers cheered,
but the visitors ended the inning with
another run to their credit.
Adkins tanned Martin got ont TO
first and Black started him ft,f 9"cond
Mahan walked to the bat and 1t cooked
as II Hood River was about to wake up
Not 50. Another goose egg was chalked
on the score board
Druhbt got safely to first and the
next moment Schmeer drove the ball
over the left field fence and two men
tailed Williams pounded Dunbar for
q safe bit and the score doubled with a
dull sickening thud.
The locals never reached first, and
shortly after The Dalles took another
try. A little side show In which Pri-
vate Benson Of Go. ID and Deputy Sher-
iif Olnger took leading part, drew the
greater attraction for few minutes.
1t doesn't require much 10 start trouble
at base ball game between Hood
River and The Dalles, and had 1t not
been for the cool work Of Manager Early
and one or two others, there would
most certainly have been bloodshcd
Sunday Just enough liquor had been
distributed to make some Of the boys
feel reckless,
Benson IN a it Of excitement drew
his gun on Charley Castner Sheriff
Olnger was at hand and Immediately
placed Benson under arrest. As the
soldier was removed from the Geld, some
Of his comrades took it into their heads
that 0lmger had no right with Benson
in bis custody, They made rush for
the gate with whiskey ON the brain aud
blood in their eye. They we're quieted
none too soon and the game went on.
Benson was shortly after released.
In the fifth inning, Castner drew
forth two bagger Martin brought
him home for Hood Rivers only score.
