SHELLEY

Shelley dill not celebrate on the
fourth, so many people from here
went to Blackfoot and Idaho Falls
There was large fourth of July
dance here in the evening, which
was well attended, many people
were down from Idaho Falls.
Shelley played Blackfoot at the
latter place on the fourth of July.
This was the most uninteresting
game that the baseball fans here
have witnessed this season, it was
much worse than the game at Idaho
Falls on Sunday, June 80. The
game looked as II everything was
coming Shelley's way during the first
four innings; at the first half of the
fourth the score stood six to two in
favor of the Shelley boys. But this
wasn't the start of the game for
BlackfoOt, whose boys soon rallied,
as the Shelley boys began to make
many errors and did not have any
control of the ball. The score ended
rs to 6 in favor of Blackfoot. Shell
ley put in three pitchers but neither
of them had any support. Shelley
must get together and play better
ball than this or they will not be in
the league long.
The Commercial club met last
Tuesday evening and during the
meeting decided that Shelley should
celebrate Pioneer Day the twenty
fourth.
Many people went fishing on the
fourth of July. Several of our pro-
minent citizens have been fishing
