And Wabeno, though defeated by a
good healthy score came close Sc
cond in smuggling the horsehide. They
gathered in fourteen hits. Waheno
started the exhibition early, getting a
base on balls, three hits and three
runs in the first inning. Eagle didn't
start until the next frame, but after
starting they kept up the pace, scor-
ing in every inning except the fifth.
The locals slipped few notches in
the eight allowing the visitors five
runs. With the exception of that inn
ing Eagle had things pretty nearly all
her own way.
T. Marion and L. Marion did the
throwing for Wabeno. Their offerings

the few strike-outs credited to them
in the box score will show. Legate
went the whole nine rounds for Eagle.
He pitched good game and had bet
ter support last Sunday than the
team has displayed in previous
games.
From the side lines it was good
game. There was plenty of hitting
and lots of running and while no
hit, no-run game may keep bunch of
fans on their toes, a good old bingle
party like they pulled off Sunday gave
the noise producers on the bleachers
plenty to do all the time. Wabeno has
good team. They didn't do great
deal against Eagle Sunday, but it
was only their third game this sea-
son. Later on that same team will be
able to give Eagle a closer run for
the money.

was going in the opposite direction
The collision bent an axle on Mart's
car and put the White car consider
ably out of commission. Some traffic
regulations will have to be adopted
there and all over town in order to
prevent some serious accidents as
this spring there has been a tenden-
cy to use the main streets for speed
ing purposes that will result in some
physical injuries unless halted by the
authorities.

Will you permit an expression con-

State that il seems like living over
again the days, that are past. This eX-

clude that however good teacher or

the good of the whole situation to for
hear making public demands tha.
