lvlLLMAR DEFEATS DASSEL .
Joe Holmberg Holds Visitors to Four
Hits and Locals Win, 3 to 2, in
B. Close Contest. 81.

Last Sunday afternoon, at the
Athletic Park, Willmar defeated
Dassel in a close and interesting
contest. Joe Holmberg pitched SUI
.perb ball, allowing only four hits.
Nordeen pitched good game, but
weakened at times, and the locals
managed to connect with him for
several safe hits. E.
Bob johnson robbed Anderson of
a hit in the third inning, by grabbing
a high line drive. He covered his
position in good style, and his work
is worthy Of commentator. Pratt
at first played an errorless game and
is a good substitute for Gordham-
mer. The Willmar team throughout
put up good game, but in the 4th
inning they pulled off 'bush league
stunt" that was somewhat amusing.
The bases were full with no man out.
Nordstrom took big lead off first
in a feint to draw Joe Holmberg to
the plate. The Dasselites threw the
ball around the diamond promiscu-
ously and succeeded in putting two
men out. During the skirmish- Joe
Holmberg scored, after hair
breadth escape from being caught
between third and home plate.
The visitors played a good fielding
game, but were weak with the stick
and every attempt at stealing sec:
ond, but one, was futile.
The locals have put up a good
clean exhibition Of the national pas
time this season, and are deserving
Of good patronage.
