Heppner's Crack Ball
Team.

Heppner has a ball team this
season, the first time for several
years. and much credit is due the
management. Vaughn and Smead
said they would develop a good
team aud they have made good.
At Fossil the boys played three
games, losing the first game with a
score of 5 to 6. Heppner took
the next two games of the series,
the score being 7 to 5 in both
games.
When we take into considera-
ton the fact that Fossil had the
very best men to be found in Gill
liam and Wheeler counties, and
Portland catcher, it shows up we'll
for our boys.
Our team has twice defeated
Condor this season, once at Hepp-
ner and last Sunday at Condor.
The final game for the season
will be played On the Heppner
grounds next Sunday when Con-
don will again try to wrest VIC
tory from the Heppner team.
On this occasion Condor will
run a special train and big crowd
will come from there and way
points.
Condor will in all probability
materially strengthen their team,
while the Heppner line up will be
about as usual.
We have no hesitation in saying
to the people of Heppner and vi
cinity that if you want to see
good game of baseball, be on hand
next Sunday.
