LYNDEN LOSES FAST
GAME TO CUSTER TEAM
Locals Meet Defeat at Hands Of Fast
Nine; To Play at Ferndale Next
Sunday

Custer defeated Lynden for the
third time this season, last Sunday at
the Fair Grounds. The score was 5
to 4. The visitors were simply too
fast for the locals and their hits came
at times when they meant runs, altho
Lynden rallied in their half of the
ninth and almost tied the score when
they ran in two runs.
While Jones pitched a good game
for Custer he was also given almost
perfect support. Several hits by Lyn-
den, which ordinarily would have
been safe were caught by Custers
fast outfielders. Olson for the locals
pitched his usual good game but his
teammates failed to produce hits at
the right time.
Custer got three scores in the first
inning on two 2-baggers, a sacrifice
grounder and an error. They kept
their lead thruout the game secur-
ing one more in the third and one in
the fifth.
Lynden got their first run in the
second; another in the third; and in
the ninth their batting rally brought
the crowd to their feet, but the best
they could do was two scores.
Lynden has another hard game to
play next Sunday, when they meet the
fast Ferndale team at Ferndale.
The box score and summary of
Sundays game is as follows:

FOR ONE LYNDEN DIRECTOR

Poultrymen of the Lynden district

vigor for the appointment of Lyn.
den man to the board of directors Ol
the Washington Cooperative Ege
and Poultry Association to succeed
Harry Beernink, resigned.
George II. Griffith, former direc-
tor, will carry Lynden's petition to
the board at it's next meeting. Mr..
Griffith today addressed the follow
ing communication to G. w. Holt,
president of the Association:
Cup to the time of my resignation
as director, l represented the Belling-
ham district. 1t was so understood
by the Bellingham members and by
the board of directors. When Mr.
Bauman's term expired, there was
no question raised as to Lynden's s
right to a director. We Lynden
members challenge the right of Bel
lingham members to put up a can
didate to fill the vacancy at Lyn-
den.
81 believe it would be mistake to
ill the vacancy with Bellingham
man.
.Mr. Bender is our best available
man. He was Postmaster at Lynden
'Or four years, is director of one of
he Lynden banks, and has forty
lcre ranch near Lynden.
"Our main reason for sending in
his petition is to establish the right
If each district to have a local man
