PENDLETON LOSES GAME

TEAM FROM WALLA
WALLA ADMINISTERS DE-
FEAT J TO 5.

The Pendleton Buckarooes tasted
defeat for the first time Saturday aft
ernoon when the doughty little Mis-
sionary team from Whitman college
gave them a Z to lemon to suck.
All credit to the collegians for they
have a clever team. but they were
lucky at that Baker, their one best
bet in the twirling line, carried
horseshoe in his pocket and every
time things looked dark for him, the
said horseshoe shed its charm.
The seven runs chalked up against
the local Tri-staters were not so much
the fault of Senner and OyDell, who
worked in the box as they were of
Peterson and Bowden, who worked in
the infield. Both of these players
had an off day. Peterson put a cou-
pie of throws over first base and va
ried his errors by booting the ball,
style of play that Bowden had mo-
nopolized up to that time. Naughton's
sore arm caused him to make a bad
peg or two and, altogether, in the
words of Big Buckaroo Lodell, "the
team made enough boots to last 1t all
season"
Senner, the Nevada recruit. worked
the first five innings and he looked
pretty good despite the fact that he
was touched up for couple of runs
in the opening. In his last inning an

Uric acid in meat excites the kidnes,

irritated, and you may be obliged to
seek relief two or three times during
the night. When the kidneys clog

body's urinous waste or you'll be a
real sick person shortly. At first you
feel a dull misery in the kidney re-
gion, you suffer from backache, sick
headache. dizziness, stomach gets sour
tongue coated and you feel rheumatic
twinges when the weather is bad.
Eat less meat drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; take a table,
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This IA

FINAL FRAMES ARE
FATAL FOR BAKER

PORTLAND, Ore, April 6.-Singles
and doubles stacked up In the last two
innings of the game, off substituted
pitchers. gave Helena the second set
to of the series with Baker. after
Baker held 6-to-O lead until the
fourth inning, when Helena got two.
The final was to for Jess CARROTS
club from the Union association. Hell
ena took the Friday game, 6 to 0.
Everything looked flourishing for
Baker of the Western Tri-State. until
Pitcher Sutherlind was "yanked" from
the mound to make room for Darling.
Right away Helena got out of the
cage and. the seventh brought one
run. The eighth brought in two more
when Lusi and Steppe brought in runs
with doubles, Steppe scoring Lusi.
Gleason Gets start.
That brought the scene around to
the ninth, with Baker still possessor
of the score, 6 to 5. Then Gleason, OF
Helena, got on first on Yarrow's mo-
lasses play over at third.
There was still a chance, but the
idea of Helena's scoring had the Ba-
ker bunch so up in the air that when
Ames rolled one down to Pitcher
Darling the latter forgot what was
most expedient and watched Ames go
to first and Gleason to second.
That set the stage for RAIDER, ex-
White Sox tryout, who refused to be
farmed in the Western League. He
peeled two-bagger off Darling and
scored Gleason.
Amesbury followed him and drove
one. through the meadows that would
have brought all but himself in. That
last one was off Meile, who replaced
Darling just before the game was lost
Aside from the one or two shady
spots, the game was well worth
watching. Sutherlind, Of Baker. went
in and pitched wonderful ball. He
famed but four men and his deliv'
cry was something which forbade any
mutual acquaintance twixt the bat and

SPORT s

The army of the invaders was re-
inforced by two of Lodelrs twirlers.
Southpaw George Kelly undertook
the task of mystifying his teammates
at first and after eleven scores had
heen run up in three innings McGar-
rigle was sent in to his relief. Mac
worked three innings and let the
Bucks down with three hits and two
runs. Newt O'Harra, the regular
box artist for Weston, officiated from
the slab the last two frames and sent
the fans into raptures in the eighth
when he blanked the locals and
struck out Bowden and Peterson.
However, in the ninth he got his. The
team battei around and then some,
and six scores were made. Lodell
raped out a triple, Naughton and
Bowden delivered doubles, and Peter
son singled. White was hit in the
ribs and an error also figured in.
Lodell worked Gravelle, Duff and
Mcclure in the box for the Bucks
and each got away without trouble. In
the three cantos he worked only nine
men faced Gravelle and six of these
famed the breezes. The little slab
ster seemed to have perfect control.
Duff worked four innings and though
he allowed Weston's only three hits,
he pulled out nicely with men on
bases. Mysterious Mcclure worked
the last two innings and seven men
faced him. All seven ere put out,
too, for in the eighth he slowed away
the first three so quickly that a
fourth man was put out for good
measure. This was McClure's initial
workout in a practice game and his
showing pleased the bugs.
Kelly demonstrated that he has
not yet got control of his slants. In
the first inning he walked four men
and in the next two he was in such
trouble that he had to let the Bucks
hit the ball or walk them.

other runner scored but his support
was responsible for It.
O'Dell, the big Portland boy, went
into the box in the sixth and he was
given even worse support though two
scores were made off him right off
the reel without the aid of errors. He
had two down when he walked Roddy
and then made the mistake of shoot
ing his fast one down the groove to
Woodward. That slugger responded
with a clout over the center field
fence good for the circuit by stipula-
ton beforehand.
In the eighth two more Missionaries
registered. couple of errors, bunt.
a clean single and a sacrifice fly do
ing the business.
Fendleton registered first in the
second when Briggs opened with a
screaming two sacker. took third on
passed ball and scored on Whites
single. White brought in the second
run also. In the fourth Peterson
drew four wide ones and with two
down finished the circuit when the
big catched laid his willow against
the pellet for two bagger. Likewise
he figured in the third and last
score. In the sixth Lodell walked and
White sent him along with a single.
Colvin was hit by a bender, filling
the bags with none down. Varian.
who had been on the bench nursing
sore thumb, went in to hit for Gra-
vile and drove out high fly which
enabled Lodell to score. O'Dell
walked. again filling the bags and
then Naughton lifted long foul to
right. White should have scored
from third but misjuiged the ball and
was not on the base when Post cap
tured it. Bowden forced O'Dell al
second, retiring the side. and again
Baker pulled himself out of bad
hole. In the fifth, seventh and eighth
he had equally good luck and the
Bucks couldn't push another runner
across.
