CENTRALIA WINS.
Mexico Loses Practice Game to
Centralia, 10 too.

Mexico invaded the Centralia
camp the Fourth Of July for a
little exhibition game and were
defeated by the top heavy score
of 10 to 0. This will have no
influence on the standing Of the
Athletics in the Central Nilsson
ri League, as the game was only
a practice one. Mexico is now
in second place and if they can
hang a good score on Moberly
next Sunday viii lead the league.
The Centralia catastrophe
was unique in the number Of err
rors chalked against the Athlet-
Tics. The game was played on a
poor diamond, however, which
helps to explain the unusual
slump of the local players. Mex
leo got four hits and Centralia
pulled down twelve.
The most interesting part of
the game was the little "argu-
nfent" between Gross and Kist-
Ter, assisted by the Centralia
manager, Hop Miller. Gross
