Aside from a spasm in the eighth in ming. when three errors contributed to hand Mesa two runs on a silver platter, inc outlaws played some real baseball yesterday. the class of ball that is seldom witnessed outside of the faster leagues. and easily took revenge on the southside representatives by q to count. The only regre table feature is that Anderson, who tN irled one Of the prettiest games of the year, was robbed of a shutOut victory
 Not trying to make excuses for the terrible play of the Outlaw members in the eighth frame, the scores really should not have been allowed. It all started when Parathon threw into the crowd after fielding Moore's grounder one man was on base at the time and two were out. Under the ground rules, the lall was dead but both base runners were entitled to advance base. F. Westfall however, thought that he would "slip one oVer' on the umps and picked the ball up and attempted to catch Moore going to second. He threw badly with the ultimate result that an other error contributed to give the wis itors two runs. After the play had been completed, a protest was made to Um- pire Godfrey, but he refused to allow the contention of Manager Westfall.
 All credit for the victory belongs to Andy Anderson. The writer credited the opposition with four hits, but two of these four bingles could easily have been scored errors. Only once during the entire battle did Mesa succeed in getting the ball out of the infield, this being in the eighth when Riggs got the

only clean hit for the visitors, a line single over second. Pomeroy beat out a bunt on an attempted sacrifice in the fourth and was of course credited with a hit. The other two hits, however, both of which were of the scratchy infield variety. were hard to distinguish from errors. The writer scored them hits be- cause. in his opinion, the runner would have beaten the throw to first had the ball been fielded cleanly. This is mere ly a matter of opinion which is left entirely to the option of the scorer and for this reason many will probably dis agree with these figures. Both hits were slow infield rollers and would have talk en fast fielding to retire the runners.
 Eleven men were retired by Anderson by the swinging route. Twice Hegi fell q victim to his slants and Pomeroy who is said to be somewhat of a slug ger. went out the same way on three of four trips to the plate. Six of the ten men who faced Anderson were struck out at some period of the game.
 Despite the fact that he was wild at times. Anderson was master of the sit nation at all times. Only one man reached third base outside of the two who scored in the eighth, and only four men reached the midway station with this exception.
 Harry Westfall also enjoyed big day behind the bat. In addition to hand ling Anderson in superb manner, who had eleven putOuts and six assists without the least semblance of an error, which is some work for backstop for one day. Not satisfied with his defens- i've work Harry went to bat in the fifth and got a home run, which was one of

 This information comes to the Automobile Club of Central Arizona at the chamber of commerce building and the informant. who wired his news, did not state whether the river could be forded or not He suggested that the forest supervisor could un- dOubtedly give further information, since he is i'll charge of the bridge construction, and the auto club has wired that official asking for further facts.
 It is stated that the bridge will be done very early in June that it may not bc long until autosts will be able to take this trip Of course it is not direct route but it is picturesque drive for those who like to go the mountains and is therefore popu lar Ill summer.
 The automobile club is seeking information with regard to all roads in this section and auosts return ing from trips requested to log their trips that others planning journeys may be advised. Particu- lar interest will be taken for the next 90 days in the roads leading northward and to the coast for in these directions the bulk of the travel will be during the hot weather.

the longest hits registered on the Polk grounds in sometime past. The ball travelled in the general direction of the fair grounds but no one seems to know whether or not it ever got there. Suf- flee to say that Harry, who is not the speediest man in the world on the sacks, completed the circuit before the ball had been returned to the infield.
 The Outlaws also showed some speed in fielding as is plainly evident from the fact that one triple and three dou ble plays were made during the course of the game.
 Phoenix made four hits of it's five runs by real hitting, the fifth counter being contributed by a couple of boots Mesa, on the other hand. scored both of it's markers as a result of some wild baseball It should have been a shutout victory by all means.
 The box score shows that F errors we1e made by the two teams, but only 1 four of these had any effect on the final result. Three of the Outlaw errors were punched in the eighth. Aside from this inning, the home team played remark able ball for semi professional club GAME BY PLAY
