the county into Clover valley, where
the battle occurred which resulted

Indian girl and her two brothers.
When the Indians were discovered.

DECIDING GAME WILL
BE PLAYED IN ELk0

Tuesdays issue. of the Elko Free
Press contains the following contrib
uted article giving an account OF
the recent ball game played in Eu-
reka, and was no doubt written by
one of the visitors here from Elko:
On last Saturday in the fifth game
Of the season, E. H. S. suffered her
first set back. On Friday afternoon
the E. H. S. baseball team journeyed
to Eureka and tasted the bitterness
of defeat the next day at the
hands of the Eureka high school team
by the o of 16 to a. The game
was a very exciting n and a large
crowd attended. Wahlund, pitching
his first game of baseball. was rat
tied in the first three innings and
was hit hard, allowing sever runs to
cross the pan. The Elko boys we're
over confident at the start by reason
of their easy victory in Elko. and at
the end of the third inning they had
a violent attack of stage fright and
went up in the air. At the beginning
of the fourth Wahlund frightened and
from then on pitched a wonderful
game, and was given the worst sup
port ever afforded a pitcher. Easy
grounders and flies we're dropped
and wild pegs were the style with
Elko.
Stoker played a good game for
EIko, knocking three flys which if
missed would have meant at least
two baggers. but Eureka's diminu-
tive center fielder made three fine
running catches. Breen. shortstop
for Eureka. made the most sensation
al play of the game, by the catching
of a long fly one-hand on a dead run.
Merialdo. for Eureka pitched a fine
game of ball, tanning ten men. Cas-
sidy played in hard luck the whole
game, being hit in the first inning,
spiked in the third, and suffered a
twisted knee in the sixth. In the
first of the eighth he was relieved by
Magee and Robear went in right
field.
The Elko boys were shown a royal
time by Eureka. A dance was given
on Friday and Saturday nights and
other things went to make it a very
enjoyable trip for Elko. The third
deciding game is expected to be
played in Elko on a date not yet set.
A good crowd is expected as Elko
won the first game. 16 to 5. and Eu-
reka the second, 16 to d. and the
third will be a fast contest from
start to finish.

THE BASEBALL GAME
Eureka High School Defeats Elko
High In Return Game BY
Score of Is to 4

years played on the local diamond.
the Eureka High School baseball
team defeated the Elko High team
last Saturday by the safe margin OF
Is to 4.
This was the second game of the
season played with Elko-the first
being won by the Elko boys by a
score of Is to 5 on home territory.
The Eureka team went into battle
determined to win, and according to
various reports from the citizens of
Eureka they put up the best game
of baseball witnessed here in a long
time.
The Elko boys were the first
to handle the stick, but they were
speedily famed by the curves of
Peter Merialdo.
During the second half of the frs.
inning the home team christened
Elko's new pitcher with a heavy bat
ting average. and two men romped
home for two tallies. The $50 or
more spectators sensed victory for
the local high school boys. and en-
thusiasm ran high for the rest of the
game.
Between the first and sixth inning
Elko's heaviest hitters slammed the
horsehide freely enough. but their
high hys fell into the hands of the
outfielders, and only one well placed
hit was fumbled. Peter Breen
starred when. after a hard run, he
caught a fly backhanded just as he
tripped and fell. He hung on to the
ball and the batter ceased his sprint
to first.
1t seemed as though there was to
be a shut out for the Elko team when
at the close of the sixth the home
team had rolled up the score of 8 to
o.; but Elko had a seventh inning
rally, and one man sneaked home.
Several high-1ys that looked like
home runs nestled securely in Victor
Rattazzi's hands, and the Eureka
boys came to the bat; and in a short
time the score looked as big as a
Liberty Loan. judging by the en-
thusiasm of the rooters.
During the eighth inning the visit
ing team filled the bases after two tai
lies. There were two down and the
pinch hitter came to the bat. He
connected with the missile, but it
was caught by Peter Merialdo who
baked the man on third. and tossed
the ball to first for the third out. (,
The last half of the ninth was not
played as the home team vas well in
the lead. ,
There were few errors on the part
of the Eureka high school team and
everyone played a heady game. The
Elko boys were at a disadvantage be-
cause they had lost their regular bat
tery-leaves of absence being grant
ed to two men for farm work since
the first game.
Following was the lineup in Satur-
days contest:
