Durango and Ouray Break
even on Ball Games

Durango and Ouray break even on
the summers games. each having
won two, dividing the honors on the
home grounds The two games
were as fine ball playing as one will
see in any place with the exception
of the last inning of Sundays game
when the Durango boys went to
pieces and allowed four runs, al
though two previous runs were on er-
ror, making the score Sunday G to
in favor of Ouray while Saturdays
game went to the locals 6 to 5.
The weather was very good. Sat
urday afternoon five minute show
er interfered with the game for that
many minutes but did not wet the
grounds to any extent. Sunday at
noon very heavy shower for half
an hour threatened a bad afternoon,
but 1t cleared up towards two o'clock
and by three the sun was beginning
to come through the clouds and the
rest Of the day was elegant, the rain
having improved the grounds. The
attendance was trifle less than usu.
81 for Sunday game, possibly not
over 500 witnessing the contest. Sat
urday the crowd numbered about 200
