To Us, Likewise to the
Other Fellow.

The best game of baseball wit
messed OH the local grounds since

bringing home the scalps was
pulled off last Sunday. The game
was an extra session affair with the
Libby Cubs and the members of
the Boomers Ferry high school con-
testing for the honors of the dia-
mond.
1t was a pitchers battle from
start to finish with Zimmerman,
the local pill shooter having a little
the best of the argument in the
pinches. Both teams played fast
and snappy game, and errors were
few and far between,
The Cubs took the lead in early
part Of the contest by good hitting,
coupled with an error or two. it
looked as-if the Cubs were going
to run up the score a couple Of
other times, but in one instance
Causton, our center gardener, stop
ped them by grabbing a hard one
out of the grass, and Zimmerman
and Boileau pulled off fast double
play that stopped the run-getting
the other time.
Boomers frightened up and at the
end OF the 9th the score was 4 to 4,
Libby made bid for the game in
the 10th, when they had a man on
third with none out, but thinner
man famed the next three men
that tried his offerings.
The local scholars grabbed the
game in the 18th, when, with two
out and a man on third. Yahne
| lined out clean one over first base
