By defeating Atwater here last
Saturday by the score Of S to 4, Will
mar kept her slate clean of defeats
for the year, and incidentally chalk
ed up her tenth straight victory.
Williams, who was pitted against
Litchfeld the day before. was back
again and pitched even better, al
lowing only 8 hits and giving only
two passes. Anderson for Atwater
pitched a good game. but was wild
and had poor support. He issued
five bases on balls and four hits.
Owing to the high wind the game
was slow, and only a fair crowd

PLAY GOOD BALL
Win Ten Games Straight. Re.
turn Game With Lftchfield
Here Friday Afternoon.

In the best played game of the
season the Willmar High team de-
feated Litchfeld at the latter's
grounds last Friday. Although the
score was six to two at the finish,
at one time Willmar was two be.
hind and won out only by heavy
batting in the last innings. Will
liams pitched a great game and ex.
cept for his one bad inning would
have scored a shutout. He allowed
seven hits and passed only one man,
while McCusker for Litchfeld al
lowed nine hits and passed two men.
Nelson, who relieved him in the
ninth was only saved by good sup
port. The game was very fast and
clean, and Willmar PLAYED errorless
ball. A return game will be played
next Friday. May 19. on the local
grounds. Those who enjoy the
National sport ought to come out
without fail to witness this game.

THIS IS WHAT SENATORS SEEN
TO FAVOR.
THEY REFUSE TO ADJOURN
This, considered by Many, az Eesults
in Favor Of the Proposition Un-
der Discussion.

WashinSton.-Tbat the senate Al
this session must face the question
as to whether the constitution shall
be amended SO as to require the cleo.
ton Of senators by direct vote of the
people was made apparent Friday. A
vote which many senators considered
test of the sentiment of the senate
was taken and resulted largely in fav-
Or Of the proposition.
The matter arose in connection
with the joint resolution for the
amendment of the constitution re-
Gently reported from the committee
on judiciary. When that resolution
was reached on the calendar Mr.. Kean
was ready with an objection which
would have had the effect of prevent
ing immediate consideration under the
order of business.
Mr.. Gallinger appealed to Mr.. Kean
to withdraw his objection. Mr.. kean
consented. and the senatorial election
resolution was launched upon its leg
islative voyage.
The situation was such as to arouse
the immediate interest of the senat-
Ors. Mr.. Sutherland was prompt in
obtaining the attention Of the chair.
SO as to strike out the provision OF
elections and making other changes.
Mr.. Rayner suggested that as the
amendment went to the heart of the
question there should be time for con-
sideration.
Mr. Raynor did not press his point.
out his plea was taken up by Senator
Hale of Maine. whose position on the
merits Of the measure is Numerically
opposite. He said he was sure that
the resolution could not be acted upon
without protracted debate. He urged
deliberate movement and moved an
adjournment of the senate. The first
vote was viva voce. The ayes appear
to have it," announced the chair. :.
"Never!" exclaimed a half dozen
senator's. Let us have the ayes and
noes"
Accordingly a roll call was ordered,
With the result that fOrty-three OF the
sixty senators present voted against
adjournment.
OF the forty-three negative votes.
:wenty-three were east by repub-
licanS.
Encouraged by this. Senator Borah
prepared to press consideration vigor-
Ously. He did not desire to prevent
debate, he said. and added he would
not do SO if he could obtain the con-
sent of the senate to name a day for
vote on the resolution and all
amendments He suggested Tuesday.
