WON PRETTY
GAME, 4 TO l
Crack Reubens Team Defeat
ed by Locals off to
Nez Perce.

Grangeville was all to the good in
Sundays game with Reubens at the
ball park and won decisively, to 1.
The locals had the visitors outclassed
at every turn.
Clyde Moses, curve merchant for
ON the three batters who opposed
him I'm the first inning and each went
the way of the hopeless. Grangeville
did big things at her first wiggle of
the willow, a bingle by E. Moses and
an overthrow by one of Reubens out
fielders bringing In three of the
points that count. The second seanct
yielded nothing for either side but
i'm the third our laddies ran in an
other counter. The visitors only
score came i'm the seventh ON a hit
to right field which Brown had hard
luck i'm connecting with.
The game was played before an en-
thusiaStic bunch of fans who braved
the discontinue of the high wind to
see a rattling good contest.
Notes of the Game.
The stiff wind made accurate judg-
ing of fly balls very difficult. The
FIELDING in this respect, however, was
creditable.
Clyde Moses pitched a heady game
and moved down the heavy sluggers
of the Reubens team at will. He got
nine strikeouts and Henry, the OPP
posing slabster, is credited with five.
The manner in which Moses field
ed his position was sensational, many
of the Reubens batters being de-
prived of communing with the village
Idol at the indtial sack by the pitch
er'S fast and accurate throws. His
work in the seventh was especially
brilliant.
A fast double play was pulled Off
by the locals i'm the sixth, Moses to
Carr to- Abrahamson.
Reubens fought hard for few
scores in the ninth but superior work
from the pitchers box and some
clever stunts by basemen put the
kibosh on their hopes. Cleveland
was caught between second and third
by cool work ON the part of Carr
and Weider.
Held, at short for the locals, was
considerably short. His work with
the STICK was below PER and as q
fielder he mussed things awful.
The visitors came a man short and
Charles Branscombe, of the loca
high school team, filled up the hole
Gee, but this GTangeville team il
improving. The seasons scoreboart
now shows three defeats and three
victories. And, by the way, it means
something to beat this fast Reubens
aggregation.
Play kamiah Today.
The local team left today for Me-
Perce where they will play the Kan
iah Indians this afternoon. Nez Perct
has arranged for a three-day bal
tournament between four teams
