were fast and we're featured with some
very good individual playing. Hicken-

for the local team and were well up to
the standard.
Fort Stevens started out alright in
the first game and held West Astoria
down, but in the eighth inning the visit

The score was 5 to 4. The one feature
of this game was the umpiring. All de-
cisions were quick and firm and allowed
no cause for dispute. The umpire was
some stranger who "blew" into town
and proffered his services, which were

The crowd was good, filling the grand
stand and bleachers. One elderly lady,
hailing from Fort Stevens, proved an
able champion for the visitors, letting

favorites. She soon had the whole bunch
