The four positions at which covetous
eyes are being cast are those OF United

the antiquated building will not feel

affected but little by any changes
which may be made.

BEARS NOSE PENDLETON
OUT, WINNING
4 TO 8
Homo Run by Leonard and MiSplay of
Nadeau Responsible for
Final Result.

In game replete with nerve thrill
ing moments and closed with a heart
rending finish, the Walla Walla
Bears yesterday afternoon came back
as strong as the proverbial horse rad
ish and prevented the Buckarooes
from starting the home season with
win by nosing out TO victory.
This, after the crowd of 400 had for
six innings nursed the conviction
that there was nothing to it but PEN
dleton and had begun to develop
little sympathy for the visitors 1t
was splendid game from start to
finish and augurs we'll for the sue
cess of the national pastime in this
city.
Big Tiny Leonard, the sorrel topped
twirler for the Bruin colony. was re-
sponsible more than any other one
man for the way the tale reads. Pitch
ing good article of ball throughout,
ne also started things in the run coll
umn for his home team when. in the
sixth with one man on, he surprised
everyone, himself included by polling
out home run over the left field
fence. Up until this time the wild
west prodigies had been leading by a
20 score and seemed to have the
game pocketed. The tying of the tai
lies by that one clout infused new life
into the Garden City boys while it
took a portion of the confidence out
of the home guard.
Garrett was on the mound for his
team, and. with the exception of the
sixth, when a single and a double be-
sides the homer was taken off him,
pitched steady ball His men outbat-
ted and outfielded their opponents
and showed much more daring on the
paths but they failed where Walla
Walla succeeded. in the ninnhes

The Walla Walla infield looked
considerably stronger yesterday with
Rochan, the little felolw who played
shortstop for the North Yakima Cubs,
kicking up the dust in the same po-
sition. He has speed and good action
and contributed toward victory by

Today is Kids Day and school will
be irksome to every red blooded boy

the veteran Phil put up a stellar ar
ticle of ball. He pulled off an unas-
sisted double and robbed the Bears
of two hits by fielding work that
brought plaudits from the grandstand
1t isn't always the players who are
boneheads. For genuine first class
sample of the ivory dome, the PEN
dleton fans outdid Merkle of national
fame yesterday. In the seventh with
Walla Walla coming to the bat, they
all stood up and stretched. BY pop
ular acceptance this is the omen by
which to invoke a batting rally and
the Bears responded by driving in a
run. Some credit should be given the
Garden City fan who slipped one over
by calling upon the crowd to rise.

1t was good game at that.


1t seems to be decreed that Garrett
shall not win an opening game, no
matter what article of ball he delivers.
Leonard violated the first principles
of a pitcher when he poled out
homerun. 1t is contrary to all Gus
toms, traditions and precedents for
a twirler to do deed of that nature.
