BOOSTERS HAVE EASY
TINE WITH GENESEE

The Pullman Boosters went into
the game with Genesee last Sunday
with a vengeance, and at the end of
the ninth inning had seven scores to
their credit, while three runs were
the best Genesee could do. The To-
calls played gilt edged baseball and
fully redeemed themselves in the es-
timation of Pullman fans from the
poor exhibition against Colfax the
Sunday previous. VanDorn and Rod
rick, the two chief offenders in the
Colfax comedy, grabbed everything
in sight and hit the ball like big
leaguers. while Moss pitched his
usual brand of baseball having the
Genesee sluggers at his mercy all
through the contest and only slowing
ur when the game was safely tucked
away. Kennedy, who has the MAX
ing of one of the best catchers in the
Inland Empire. handled Moss speedy
ms, wide outs and drops like a vet
eran, and divided the battery honors
evenly with the popular. pitcher.
