A game between Winslow and

here some time during the month
of August. Manager Bazell is
now in communication with the
manager of the Grays and salts
factory arrangements will pro-

forthcoming week and a date set
for the game. AS the Grays are
the present champions OF New
Mexico an interesting time is
promised the Winslow team when
they meet, but with "the help of
the grand stand" we hope to
win out.

The visitors proved to be quite

able to retire FIVE of them bv the

Stafford may be given an oppor-

Chambers, catcher for the visi-
tors, is the right man in the right
place-behind the bat. He is also
handy with the stick too.
Chatheld, catcher for the Wins
low team, continues TO improve
with each game played. This
young man came here stranger
only a few months ago but has
won his way to the hearts of the
fans by his consistent and heady
playing. In Sundays game he
batted out a home run so 1t will
be seen he is not slow with the
bat.
Bazell and Chatfeld, the irwin

the Flagstaff boy S to play there
next Sunday. The Flagstaff team
hope that with the addition of
these two players they will be

the Prescott bunch.

though suffering intense pain and
with but one eye open, Guffy
went into the game and contri-
buted largely towards the defeat
of the visitors.
