LOCALS GET SHORT END OF So
SCORE; UNABLE TO HIT OP-

RUTH OUT OF BOX.
(By Al Hoffman,

a large crowd of fans ewre on
hand last Sunday when the Leaven-
worth team took on Stub Spencer's
Wenatchee bunch of ball tossers.
Although the home team went
down to defeat, it is nothing to feel
bad about as it was regular game
and they were up against stiff out
fit. Wenatchee was lucky in bunch
ing their hits, while when Leaven-
worth needed hit the worst way in
the seventh they were unable to
come through.
The game was fast and free from
errors and everyone got their moneys
worth even though the locals were de-
feated Leavenworth batted Ruth
out of the box in the seventh inning,
but were unable to find the offering of
Pitcher Hill who took his place, al
though the bases were full and but
one man down at the time.
If Manager Elliott keeps putting
on this kind of ball the lakes and
mountains around Leavenworth arc
going to have bum shedding Sunday
afternoons as far as the Leavenworth
fans are concerned.
