EASY GAME FOR BLYTHE.

The Palo Verde All-Star team de-
feated the Parker Indians last Sun
day by score of % to 6. Heavy
hitting by the Palo Verdeans and
loose fielding on the part of the In
dians was responsible for the one
sided score.
Clayton occupied the mound for
Blythe. He went into the box with
a sprained arm, but stuck out the
nine innings. He had the redskins
guessing every minute.
Captain I,eBarron played an error
less game at second. He kept the 10
cal boys on their toes during the
entire contest by his vOciferous style
of coaching, and he deserves the
lions share of the credit for wallop-
ing the Indians.
The MohaveS held the score at
to 2 till the third inning, when Will
kinson knocked a home rum that
started the batting rally for Blythe.
The game closes a series with the

their native haunts near Parker. Mon
day. The Palo Verdeans won four
straight games from the redskins.
