Last Sunday afternoon about zoo

fans had the pleasure" of seeing
Staley's Colts trim their fast team to

came well supplied with horns, COW
bells and other matchmaking con
traptions which they found that they
had but very little use for, long be-
fore the game ended.
But while the good citizens of
Soda were watching their idols so
down to defeat. they had the salts
faction OF knowing that they were
witnessing one OF the fastest and
cleanest ball games that has ever
been played on an Idaho diamond.
In fact, Sundays game was major
league ball.
For the first two or three innings
1t looked as IL ii was going to be
battle between the pitchers. for
Swayne of Pocatello. who occupied
tile mound for the Colts, and Lind.
Soda's imported twirler, were fan
ming 'em about as fast as the batters
would step up To the plate. But In
the fourth frame the Colts began do
ing business and from then on to
the close of the game they pounded
out somewhere close to a dozen hits,
while Soda got but two hits off
Swayne That he had got the Soda
boys goat" is evidenced by the fact
that he struck out II OF them, while
Lind found only of the Colts and
most Of them went down In the first
three innings.

the Colts cantered around the dia-
mond in their half OF the fourth.
things didn't look so good to the
Sodaites. Then after the Colts add
ed two more runs TO their credit in
the fifth, there was a noticeable de
cline in the noise from the Soda sec
tion In the grand stand and only once
or twice after the fifth was there any
occasion for the visitors to use their
horns and bells.
However, the Sodaites took their
defeat with good grace. They real
lied that they were outclassed and
made the best of II. They could not
lay their defeat TO the nmpires. for
Hugh Dorien of Soda. and Charlie

gave such fair decisions that only

they were somewhat disappointed
over the result OF the game they hat
the satisfaction of knowing that they
