the trick
Finn and Grimes we're in a pitchers
battle in tho morning. FINN had the
better OF the argument until the
eighth inning. when he lost his own
game by uncorking a wild pitch.
which allowed two men to cross the
pan.
Spence outtwirled I,ehr in the af-
ternoon, but the breaks we're against
him. When Grimes went TO the
mound I'm the sixth inning all of Mid
dle.own's chances went up in smoke.
Both games were pitchers battles.
and were positively the best ever
seen here The two teams were as
evenly matched as Il is possible for
any two teams 20 be.
Finn only allowed the soldiers two
hits IN the morning fracas, his Wild
pitch causing his own downfall.
In eighteen innings but four balls
were knocked out OF the infeid. Now
you can see what kind OF a game
was being played
In the two games ffty-four men
we're sent back 20 the bench. OF these
forty-one took three swings at the
pill and missed. Solne pitching for
only thirteen men IN two innings TO
hit ball in fair territory.
The soldier boys put up a grand
article OF baseball, equally the locals
in all departments OF the game. Any
one who mihsed the two games can
certainly feel blue. for they missed
major league baseball.
And Saturdays game. Happy New.

As manager of d. B. Gish, Inc. w. A.
Ward will assume his new duties Febru-
airy /. Hap" Ward, as he is universally
known among the trade, is numbered
among the old guard in the automobile
business. He got his first experience in
the motor car industry in the days Of the
old two-cylinder type. Even before this
time he occasionally tried his hand with
the one-cylinder cars. Coming UP through
the mechanical end of the industry he
understands automobiles, automobile con-
struction, and automobile service. Leav-
ing the shop, he Joined the selling force
of the old United Motor Washington
Company, then representatives of the
Maxwell. When this company went out
Of business and its interests were taken
over by H. b. Leary, jr., he remained
with Mr.. Leary for a time, resigning to
accept position with the Overland dis
tributors as managers of the service de-
partment. He severed his connection
with this concern to enter again the
selling field with the Pollock Car Cor
poration oldsmobile representatives.
1t is from this last concern that he
steps into his new position of manager
of the local distribution agency of the

president OF the company, plans to devote
the greater portion of his time to the

ton decided that the president shall ap-
point a committee to secure tickets for
