Salt Lake crew.
Even tho winning OF the bunting could
have brought but little more jos 10 the
Ogden fans than does this exceptional
defeat OF the Cooley band. Ogden. once

the season in fourth place with "A record

THE 1912 season of the Union Association of
Baseball clubs came to a close yesterday.
Missoula won the pennant. Salt Lake was
second, Great Falls third, Ogden fourth, Butte
fifth and Helena sixth.
The feature Of the year playing was the re-
rnarkable squirt made by the Ogden team at the
finish. Had McCloskey got his Ogden team into
working order earlier in the season he certainly
would have been strong contender for the flag
Salt Lake did not make the showing the fans in
this city had hoped for. Indeed, the Skyscrapers
slump of the last five weeks has been little short
of disgraceful. At one time Salt Lake was nip
and tuck with Missoula the race between the
Cooleysox and the Highlanders as to which should
top the percentage column was exciting.
Salt Lake performed acceptably until the team
started on its last trip around the circuit. That
iaunt was disastrous to the club and heartbreak-
ing to its friends. Salt Lake got only one out of
seven in Missoula; only two out Of seven in Great
Falls four out of seven in Helena and in its final
roundup with Ogden Salt Lake got only four out
Of sixteen.
list of reasons why as long as a Roose-
velt letter might be written about Salt Lakes
failure to bring the pennant home. In the first
place. Cooley's best pitchers went wrong in the
early part of the season, probably because the
management insisted that they should 'cut loose"
