DOPE in BASE
BALL CIRCLES
When, How and Why 1t Was
Done to Us, Likewise to
the Other Fellow.

Genesee high school bunch, fresh |
from a defeat at the hands OF
the Cottonwood team principally
made up of material from the
first team, met the local high
school ballists on Friday last, ,and
took a game from them by the
score of 8 to 5. The result of
the game was not due to the fact
that the visitors have our boys
skinned as ball players, but was
brought about by two errors
which could have been easily
avoided and the punching of hits
in one inning. The locals real
ly have. better colony than the
visitors. There was very good
crowd witnessed the game. The
high school misses gave the Wis
itors a reception at the high
school rooms in the evening.
From here the visitors went to
NezPerce where they added an
other scalp to their string OF
trophies.
White Bird VS.. Grangeville.
Saturday a game was pulled
off here as per advertisement,
between White Bird represented
by Clark LYDIA, James Large,
Lawrence Upton, Dick Upton
Earl Kirkham, Grover Newman,
Paul Shinkle, Gus Wright, Ben
Large, with Milo Newman and
Seth Jones as boosters, and the
local league team. The game re-
suited : in score of 13 to ! in
favor of Grangeville. The locals
played an exceptionally good
game, while the visitors were not
up to their usual form and were
handicapped by an extremely
hard run of luck; every error
they made was costly and when
they found the ball it went di
rectly into the hands of some
waiting Rube of the opposition
The result of the game does not
by any means guage the playing
capacity of the visitors. An eff
fort will be made for return
game in the near future. Th'
visitors are fine lot of boys ano
accepted their defeat and thu
song and dance of the local root
ers during the game, in the very
best of spirit. They remained
over night, taking in the count!
seat sights and had a good tim

Grangeville Highs at Sites.
The Grangeville high schoo
bunch treked it to Sites Satur
day, where they claim they play
ed a collection from all the SUI
rounding aggregations in tn
Clearwater country, with the un
pire piled on top. From the re
suits of the game, 9 to l,
would look like they went u
against something of unusus
proportions to get torn up i
that shape. Howbeit, the boy
say they were treated hospi
ably by the Stitesites and ths
they had a good time, even
they lost. Most of them stage
for the dance in the evening
They were accompanied by SUI
erintendent King.
