YER|NGTON WINS
FROM INDIANS

The game between Yerington
and the Schurz Indians was very in
teresting. In fact it was the best
game that our team has put up this
year. The new battery, Snyder and
Mcfarland did fine work. The In
dians played good ball, making only
one error to Yerington's eight. A
little more practice would improve
the team, as their team worl. is still
ragged in spots.
