Fourth Of July Celebration
A Big Success.

The Fourth OF July CeleDra
ton in Mansfield was a great
success and was carried out ac.
cOrding to program published.
On account Of the farmers being
so far behind with their work,
and it being a fine day for max
ing hay, the crowd was not rs
large as might have been, but
the enthusiasm of those present
made up for the lack in numb 4.
1t seemed that all enjoyed the
day, some with the various sports
and umuSementS and entertain
ments, and others in visiting
and mingling together IN the
beautiful park.
The day was started by IA and
concert by the Mansfield Concert
Band at 10 o'clock in the morn
ing, and was followed by a snort
but very mpr, ssive address OF
welcome by Mayor J. f. Craig
which, in turn, was followed by
a splendid talk by Roy ems, OF
the Springfield Normal school,
on the ''blessin4S of Liberty >.
Mr. Ellis spoke at length on this
topic and pad IL high tribute to
the American Legion boys, and
the Stars and Stripes.
After the noon hour til" rarl.
Gus contests were indul@cd IN,
and prize, awarded as follows:
Boys 100 yard dash III and un
der-First prize Clar nee Hun

Tug of war town. between th"

Ball throwing contest FIRST
prize V. Smith, second, Tom

The ball game between Mans
field and HartviIie was good
game, and was enjoyed by many
of the in, and out of town fans.
The game resulted in II victory
for the Mansfield team by a score
of 6 to ,.
The days program was closed
in the evening by band concert
in the park which was apprccia
ted by a large number of people.
All together, the Fourth OF
July celebration in Mansfield was
a great success and the prOgleS
sive business men of the city are
to be complimcntcd for their lib
eral contributions To Il fund
which made the celebration pos.
sible. The surplus, after eNpen
ses are all pad, goes to the
Mansfield Band. which will net
them something like $1,000.
The Baud, under it's manage
ment, is doing good work, and IA
lot of new boys are destined to
become excellent musicians, and
we feel certain that the citizen
ship of Mansfield appreciates the
effort of the boys and the band.

Hartville Runs Poor Second
in Two Games With
The Crays.

HArtville is still trying to
beat Mansfield but it seems
that they are unable to realize
their uim.
Saturday at HartviIle- Mans
field 7, Hartville l.
Monday at Manstield-Mans
field 8, Hartville =.
Thereby hangs a tale OF hope
shattered, ambition stifled, and
misery running riot. Hartvllle
is Manstield's ancient rival, and
in a sporting sense, a foe worthy
of the name. When the Grays
aud Haltville are pitt.d against
each other, the game is q hard
fought one all the way.
For ten innings last Saturday
at Hartville, the Grays and the
Capitol city valiants struggled
with a l to l score. Big John
Latimer was twirling for Hart
Vile, using every bit of cunning
and strength which he possessed
But ten innings was enough to
Gan the endurance of the one
time greatest pitcher in the
Ozarks, and he retired at the end
of the tenth, with the score still
tied. Eator, who succeeded him
proved to he real eatin' for
the Grays, and the game termln'
ated at the end of the eleventh:
Grays 7, Hartville l.. A deluge
of hits made it a perfect day for
the Grays.
Slim Owens pitched shut out
ball for the five innings he was
on the mound for the Grays, re-
firing then, rather than risk in
Jury to an already over worked
pitching arm. Gaskill, who sue
ceeded him, pitched the same
brand of top notch baseball, but
IN over throw to first base, with
two out and a man on second, al
lowed HartvilIe to score their
only joy of the game
~Batteries-Manstield: Owens,
Gaskill and Brasher; Hartville:

STRUGGLE RENEWED ON
MONDAY.
Monday, not having enough,
Hartville tried to tame the Grays
on the Cirays' own lot, and re.
ceived another drubbing to Il jig.
time tune. This time by a score
of 6 to 2, and in nine innings.
Smokey Norris twirled for them,
and the Grays belted him early
and late.
Slim Owens pitched for the
first six innings for the Grays,
and allowed only one hit during
that period, Gaskill relieving
him. Dee" had a bit of misfor'
tune. a shower of rain prevent
ing him from being properly
warmed up, and as a result the
Hartville valiants Tucked in two
runs. But the Grays had en-
ough to spare them, and the
game ended at the end of the
first half of the ninth with the
score 6 to 2, with the Grays in
the lead.
Coday, first up for the Grays
in the first, doubled to right, and
scored on a triple by Nose
White; Nose scored a moment
later when he worried Norris
into uncorking a wild heave.
Nose scored again in the third,
when with two down, he doubled
to left, swiped third, and crossed
the plate when Oral Dennis hit
for a single. In the fourth in.
ming Ural Dennis added another
to the Gray total when he was
safe on a fielder's choice, stole
second, and scored on Newton's
double. Two more needles were
stuck into Hartville in the eighth
inning when o. Dennis walked,
stole second, was advanced to
third on a safe bunt by Gaskill,
Gaskill going to second a moment
later. both scoring IN a single
by Brasher.
