BENSON TWIRLS FINE GAME
Saturdays Game COPIED by Locals
by Score of to S. Havre Leaves
Field in Sundays Game.

on Saturday and getting the next
game when Havre forfeited, Glasgow
won the big end of the three game
series scheduled to be played between
the baseball pastimers of the "Gas"
city and the locals.
Havre's professional baseball club,
claiming the championship of North
ern Montana, came down Saturday,
confident from the time they landed
here that they had the series "sewed
up in sack" In this they were
sadly disappointed, as they departed
for their native haunts Sunday eve
ming, carrying the sting of a 6 to
5 defeat on Saturday and forfeiting
the other two games of the series
to Glasgow.
"Umpire batting" seems to be
long suit with the Havre ball play
ers, and they took advantage of ev-
cry opportunity to rush out on the
field, when apparently dissatisfied
with a decision. 1t was apparent to
the crowd that witnessed both games
that unless the Havre boys could have
their own way, they wouldn't play,
and this was clearly demonstrated in
the tenth inning of the second game
of the series on Sunday afternoon
when Captain Gallogly led his men
from the field, forfeiting the game to
Glasgow. Another game was to have
noon. but the Havre team refused to
been played at 5 o'clock Sunday after
play.
While the games were marred to
degree by the rag chewing, they were
sensations from the first man up to
the last man out in the ninth and
local fans were treated to seeing a
pair of games that for excitement out
classed anything ever seen in the To-
cal park.
Saturdays game was pitching
duel between Cadreau and Comartin,
with Cadreau having the edge al
though he allowed one more hit than
his opponent. Fourteen Havre men
swung thrice at the ozone, attempting
to connect with the Chiefs elusive
offerings, while Comartin had only
three strikeouts.
But for one bad inning, there would
have been no question whatever
about the outcome of the game. In
the fifth inning an error and three
hits netted Havre four runs, putting
them in the lead. Up until this in
ming they had only been able to con-
meet safely for one bingle off Cadreau
and after this almost fatal frame
they only got two hits and one run
Glasgow was the first to score IN
Saturdays game, getting one tally IN
the opening round. After Havre hao
scored four runs in their half of the
fifth Glasgow came right back ano
put two over the pan, when Jobst
lifted one over the left field fence
for a home run, scoring Movold aheao
of him.
In the eighth inning Havre addec
another score and in their half of the
same inning Glasgow did the same
when Movold was hit by Comartir
and Herstrom hit for two bases, scor'
ing Movold.
With Havre one run ahead Whef
Glasgow went to bat in the mnth
things looked rather dark, but before
the inning was over two runs mac
core IN and the game was over II
thu. exciting frame, Tappon, the flrs'
man I'D was out. Whi*e to Gallo'-'y
Slette was sent in to bat for Grace
and reached first on an error b!
White. A dispute arose over thu
decision but despite the protests O.
the Havre players, it was not chang
ed. Cadreau was given free ticke
to first, and Mccoy hit one in from
of the plate, Slette being thrown ou
at third, Mccoy getting safely to frs
on the play. Movold hit a hot on
to Comartin, who failed to handle it
and also filled the bases. With tw'
men out, and two strikes on Jobst
he cracked out single to right field
scoring Cadreau and Mccoy.
Two games were scheduled to b
played between the teams on Sunda,
afternoon, but the Havre team lef
the field in the tenth inning of tn
first game, forfeiting to Glasgow an
refused to 60 back to play the las
one.
For seven innings both teams ha
