GETTING TO A BALL GAME
UNDER MANY DIFFICULTIES

Five automobile loads of Ro-
nan people drove to Somers last
Sunday to witness the ball game
between Roman and Somers.
Part of them attempted the trip
by way of the east side of the
lake and when they arrived at
the ferry above Big Fork were
informed that the river was too
high to permit the ferry run
ming. They then went on to
Kalispell and there found the
water so high as to prevent them
crossing the bridge and were
compelled to go on to Columbia
Falls, where they reached the
other side of the Flathead river
and drove back to Somers. Think
ing they were out of the woods
and with easy sailing for the
home trip, they took in the ball
game and started back about 8
o'clock, but their troubles were
only commenced. They encoun-
tered high water, rain and a
strong wind and at the Big Arm
hill found Is or 20 trees blown
down and lying across the road.
After worming around through
woods for a couple of hours they
finally all got back into the road
and arrived in Roman at 2 a. m.
Mon day, feeling themselves very
lucky to not be marooned along
the road between here and Big
