Double Header Last Sunday

The Kendrick baseball team won
one game and lost one last Sunday
afternoon. The game with the Lap
wal Indians was played first and re-
suited in victory for Kendrick by
a score Of 13 to 0. McCrery's pitch
ing was the feature of the game.
He is showing up in great form this
year and is improving in every
game. He allowed but a hits in
this game. Twice with three men
on bases and no one out, he retired
the side without allowing score.
The game with Avon was one of
the most loosely played games ever
put on in Kendrick. DeCourcey, Nc
Crery and Grow all took turn in
the pitchers box but the multitude
of errors on the part of the Kend-
rick players allowed Avon to pile
up 8 runs. 1t is remarkable that
the score was no larger as there
must have been 20 errors or more
against kendrick. Avon's pitcher
was good one and kept the hits
scattered pretty we'll so that Kend.
rick's runs were made but few at a
time. Score was 8 to 7ln Avon's
| favor.
| Genesee and Kendrick play next
Sunday at Genesee.

ESTANCIA BOND BIDS
PROMPTLY REJECTED

The board of trustees of the town
of Estancia who advertised for bids
for bonds with which to install a
water works and sewerage system,
received but one bid and that at 90
cents. 1t was promptly rejected, as
il should have been.
The town has wisely postponed the
construction until such time as they
can secure 100 cents for their Sc
curities.
DR.. Gray of the state department
of health advised the trustees very
strongly to delay the work until they
can reasonably expect to secure the
material. which is almost impossible
TO get at any price this year.
