LEAGUE GAME
IS PLAYED At M'G|Ll

For the first time in the history of
the local ball league, a game was
played at McGill on the Fourth and
it was a spirited one from the start.
The Nevada Northern boys were
again the victors yer the McGill
team but there was no time in the
game when the railroaders could af-
ford to do any throwing off. The
game started off in big league fashion,
and no runs were scored in the first
inning and it looked as though the
railroaders were to be shut out In
the second but Smoot, with two men
out and two on bases, made a lucky
drive to right field and scored the
two men on base.
Both mines played new pitchers
and each put up a good article in the
way of twirling. The fielding on the
port of both mines was %excenent and
this was particularly SO, being that
the crowds closed in on the fielders,
making 1t extremely difficult to get
under the ball. Notwithstanding the
handicap under which the felders
played, there were no errors regis
tered against them.
The game was characterized by
numerous arguments with the UNI
pire anu each nine took exceptions to
many of the decisions.
The game to be played this after
noon at the East Ely ball park will
be between the Ely and Nevada
Northern teams and II the weather
continues as good as 1t has been for
the last few days. there Is no reason
why a good game should not be put
up.
