All Leaguers Played Ball Sun

tlonS permitting, lne NeZ Ierce
Tribe and the Grangeville Cam
as Eaters will mix up things on
the local diamond for the first
time this season; and while the
sporting editors heart is right,
in view of transpirations which
have already eventuated, his
judg gment at sober second
thought, counsels him to raise no
false hopes and make no rash
statements or prophesies regard
ing what may or may not take
place on that occasion. But be-
ing a loyal citizen, regular at
tendant at all base ball seances,
and promoter in that line, he
will venture far enough to state
that Grangeville has the best
ball park in the league, with a
grandstand seating capacity of
over 600. and he, along with all
other interested citizens, would
like to see it filled to overflow
ing with two biters-and that no
matter what humiliation we may
be called upon to undergo, it will
be borne heroically.
Grangeville- Winchester Game.
Grangeville's Camas eaters
went down to defeat at the hands
of the Winchester wood butchers
last Sunday among the stumps
and tall pines on the Winchester
wood lot, to the tune of s to 6,
in game neither brilliant nor
entirely listless. The two inning
hoodoo at the first of the game
was still with us and his royal
highness "Jinks" was master OF
cere monies and had his (boo)
sign on every man. Carr, after
thos e two bad innings, pitched
good bail, had his spit ball work
ing fine and kept his hits scatter
ed. Turnbull, Winchester's twirl
er, from first to last had the
Grangeville tossers swinging thei1
heads off when hits meant runs
Grangeville, first to bat, wen
out in one, two, three order OF
two infield hits and a fly behinC
second, the ball going on an easy
bounce straight into the fielder I
hands; but with Winchester
first time up the trouble began
On slow hit to Carr the bal
took a nasty sidestep which pu

hit over second brought in tn
first run, and that ended the fir

Grangeville could do nothin
but get a man on the middle sta
