Our bunch of ball tossers went to Mar
ienville, uckwheat day, August 10th,
and captured two games from a picked
team from Marienville, Redclyffe. Clsr-
ington, st. Petersburg, &c. They took
the first game handily by a score of u TO
l. Not a man got a hit or farther than
second base till the second inning. Hayes
pitched winning ball, allowing three hits
and striking out 10 men. The first game
took the heart out of them and we won
the second game 0 to 2, Hayes allowing
only two hits.
Saturday, August 2lst, the boys jour
neyed to Mayburg and larruped them s
to s. 1t was a slugging bee, as we got 10

pounded their old hoodoo, Paul Green, to
a standstill. Hayes struck out Is men in
this game, against Green's six. This
puts US at the top with nine games won
and five lost, per cent. 693. Mayburg
second, with six games won and four
lost, per cent. 600.
FROM ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT.
By referring to the daily papers of last
Friday we note with much pride that
Kribbs & Rays racer, King Burdo, won
the 2:2I trotting race a three straight
heats at Kittanning on thursday. Time,
2:22l, 2:23I and 2:22l. The purse was $500.
The horse was driven by Mr.. Kribbs and
in starting was in sixth place, but with
out much effort he soon gained the pole,
coming under the wire with plenty of
speed 10 Guido the other eight entries
very easily. After the race the horse was
accidentally injured by being side-swiped
by a runaway horse which was driven by
a person considerably under the influence
of a strong narcotic of some kind. 1t was
intended to enter the horse for Fridays
race also but the accident necessitated
changing the plans somewhat and he will
not race again until September Sd at In
diana.
Every available conveyance in town
was brought into use last Thursday to
carry the people who wished TO attend
the third annual reunion of the Buck
wheat Club, over to Marienville, where
that club proceeded to do things that day.
We think without dispute that Kellett.
Vile furnished the majority of attrac-
tons, which assisted very materially in a
good days sport with the buck wheaters.
The merry-go-round was taken over on
Monday and Tuesday and was prepared
to handle all those who wished to ride,
while the ball team did a double turn that
was very highly appreciated, the boys
bringing both games lone by scores of
1915 and SO.
The Kellettville Concert Band furnished
excellent music during the lawn and
porch festival at G. r. Johnson's, Satur-
day evening, which was held for the BEN
eft of this excellent organization. The
handsome sun of $62 was realized by the
management.
The Kellettville ball team will give a
pie social in Andrews hall on Saturday
evening. 1t is hoped a good amount will
be realized, which will gladden. the hearts
of the management.
Prof. and Mrs. j. l.. Simmons returned
home Thursday, after a pleasant three
months visit with relatives in West
moreland county and other points.
1t is not definitely known yet whether
the schools will open here on the Both or
not, as it is not likely the rooms will be
completed by that time.
