Defeat. Which Means a
Hot Game Results

Eagle River is going TO see fast
game Sunday when the Laona Irwin
cibles meet the home team here. De-
feat hasn't visited either team this
season, a statement we will be unable
to make after next Sunday, because
something is going to happen In that
game to mar the record of either one
or the other of the two top-notch
teams, unless, of course, the game
goes into tie, which is hardly prob
able. Eagle had to pass up its game
scheduled for last Sunday on account
of injuries to some of its players re-
ceived in their game week ago with
Sunset Farm, but Manager LaRenzie
expects to have full string of his
heavies in action again next Sunday
when Laona arrives. This will be
game that baseball fans must not
miss. The home team has record
that should draw the sturdiest sup
port from all followers Of the national
Ipastime, and when they meet a team
| like Laona, that has just as good
record it promises to be the game of
them all. Be at the fair grounds
Sunday afternoon and see If the Laona
boys can retain their title of ssInvin-
cibles" or if Eagle is going to annex
it.
Sunday, being an open date for the
home team, many local fans made
the trip to Sunset Farm to see that
fast team trim Monico by a score of
IL to l. The Farmers played snappy
ball and from the start it was evil
dent that Monico had stepped out of
it's class. But at that they put up
hard fight. Ford pitched for the
junction town team and his work was
all that could have been asked His
support was far from errorless. Ford
came up smiling in every inning and
was going strong at the finish. Luder-
us pitched for Sunset. In the game
with Eagle River the week before,
the big boy played shortstop. Sun
days game proved that he could hold
down the tWirling end of d game with
equal skill The Farmers are about
as strong an aggregation as will be
found III this Section. pheir line up
includes men who know the game and
any team going up against them has
to work for all it gets.
Phelps played nice game at Rhine
lander Sunday afternoon. Tie final
score was 4 to 3 in favor of the Rhine
lander team, but Phelps need suffer
no remorse over that defeat. 1t was a
fast, clean game that went into the
ninth inning tie, 3 to 3. McGregor
pitched for Phelps, against Carroll on
the mound for .Rhinelander. Phelps
is playing in hard luck this season.
They have good team, but luck,
the element that wins a good many
ball games, seems to break at the
wrong time for them. They have
lost the last few games by very mar
row margins, all the while playing
equally as good ball as their oppo-
nents. However, they've got the
right spirit and good backing from a
loyal bunch of fans. They are just
about due for change in luck be-
cause with the brand of ball they are
playing the tables have got to turn.
Since the above was written the
following additional facts on
the Rhinelander- Phelps game have
been. received: Case for Phelps and
Marquardt for Rhinelander were the
catchers. McGregor allowed hits
and Carroll 8. Carroll struck out Is
and McGregor Ii. Up until the fifth
inning not man on either side saw
first. DR.. Gardner umpired.
