G~rindelwald. several thousand fe.

birdseye view of the small town with
its scarcely visible houses and minia-

of ribbon, winding its way through
the valley. This beautiful scene has

is characterized by mountains of moder-

stages Of the game and his work for
the locals from the center of the dia
mond was largely responsible for
Cairos defeat. He gave three OF the
visitors passes 10 first on BALI and
then issued transportation for TWO
more by hitting them before they had
a chance to hit the bali. Three out OF
the five beat their way the rest Of
the trip and scored
Ways work was not however en-
tirely responsible for the score al
though he clearly lost his game In
the ten innings he gave only eight
hits His support was IN no ways far
tering and the batting Of the Jacks
was vigorous and most opportune
The game was al some different
stages lively and interesting. The
Jacks got a good start and in the
second inning scored three runs One
base on balls. a blocked bali and a
sacrifice hit did the work The lo-
calls overcame this lead the next
three innings with good trong hitting
and held he Jacks down. In the
eighth the Jacks made two runs
making them one to the good The 10

the game went into extra innings IN
