BEST GAME Of SEASON WON BY
SHELTER BOYS. SCORE 6 TO ;

look the local boys for a trimming.
Ray had the usual hard luck that they
have been accustomed to in the past
few games and after tying the score
it looked like they would have good
opportunity to win, but in the eighth
inning with two men down the Smell
ter boys succeeded in getting three
straight singles and a double which
netted them three runs, a lead which
the Ray team could not overcome.
Delhi started working on the slab
for the locals and either he couldn't
pitch good ball or didn't want to, re-
sulting in the Smelter boys knocking
the ball all over the field. Extra fast
fielding behind Delhi was all that kept
the score down to a few as it was.
There were several chances in the
outfield that looked like singles and
some two baggers that were recov-
cred that would undoubtedly have al
lowed several more runs
The Smelter boys started right off
in the first inning by scoring one run
when Butler singled, McMurdo got
two-bagger, buddy walked and Bender
was hit by the pitcher. Again in the
third they scored two runs as result
of single, a double, a walk and an
other singled, coupled with an error
by Tobin when he failed to pick up
the ball and catch Bender at the home
plate. In the fourth Ray evened up
the score in a batting furry. In the
eighth the Smelter scored the three
winning runs. In the last half of the
ninth the Mines made a valiant effort
to get back the three lost scores by
sending in all the pinch hitters on the
bench, but the effort was fruitless
