ELKO PEOPLE WANT
REVENGE JULY 4TH

Why doesn't Winnemucca stage a
Fourth of July celebration this year,
asked w. w. Percival of Elko this
morning, in conversation with busi-
ness acquaintances here. 1T looks to
me like golden opportunity, and |
can assure you gentlemen Elko will
send at least special carload OF visi-
tors for the day. | have no doubt
Lovelock would make up party for
the celebration, as well as Battle
Mountain and other towns"
And then a reporter for The Silver
State was called over and the conver-
sation repeated, with a suggestion
that the ball be started rolling. Then
came suggestions of what might be
done and Mr.. Percival, who is man.
ager for the Elko Rolling Mills, had
another suggestion:
"Elko is surely coming back here.
he said. That was a dirty trick
beating our baseball team 13 to o.
you should have let them get one run
anyway. The trouble was they didn't
practice much before coming here to
play. But you may rest assured they
will return for revenge. How would
il be to bring both the Elko and Battle
Mountain teams here for the Fourth
and another team from somewhere
else and stage two hall paues3o
IL anyone else has ideas on how
20 create rivalry and a more neigh
borly feeling between Winnemucca
and surrounding towns. call up The
Silver State-we'll be glad to print
them. The Fourth of July celebration
is something to which thought must
be given, because of short time to
omplete arrangements. etc. but the
evidence in this and other recent in
cidents of willingness on the part of
Elko residents to extend the hand OF
friendship to Winnemucca is crafty
ing. It's also at least one assurance
that such a celebration would be sue
cessful, even if il does cover up an
underlying desire on the part of Elko
folks to come down here en- masse in
hope of watching their baseball team
wallop the everlasting daylights out
of Winnemucca' team. But ii can't
be done-not this year-our teams
too good.

LOyEL0CK FARMERS EXPECT A
VERY SMALL ALFALFA CROP

Ranchers in the Lovelock Valley
state that the first alfalfa crop will be
considerably short this season, ow-
ing to water shortage. The few show
ers last week helped great deal.
This week the storage water in the
reservoir was let out and for few
hours the bitches in the upper valley
were running full, but the lower val
ley had none. Reports are coming
in from all sections that the streams
are rapidly rising, the warm wea-
ther of the last few days bringing the
water down from the mountains, but
even then there seems to be very lit
tie of it flowing in the part of the
Humboldt river situated in the Love-
lock section. The cut worm is also
doing considerable damage to the
crops this spring.

ELKO PLAYERS WILL
PRACTICE NEXT TIME

Despite raging sandstorm which
riade ball playing almost impossible
the Winnemucca nine shut out the
visitors from Elko at Recreation
Park last Sunday, the final score be-
ing 13 to 0. The team from the
neighboring town showed a marked
lack of practice and team work and
with the exception of the first inning,
played very poor game. The highly
touted pitcher from the northwestern
league could not be discovered by
inquiry and Irwin, who opened the
game for Elko, was forced to the
bench early in the game. Arant
was on the mound for the local team
and, needless to say, worked in his
usual good form. The support given
him was good, weather conditions
considered. and it looks as though
Winnemucca is to have real
championship team this season.
On next Sunday. arrangements have
been completed to have the Battle
Mountain nine team play here and
games have also been arranged with
Fallon and Lovelock to be played on
the next following Sundays.
The game played between the
grammar school and the high school
Sunday morning resulted in a victory
for the high school team.
