Vernon Scribe
Wakes Sarcastic In
Account of Battle
CONTRIBUTED

The long-looked for battle between
Amboy, the champions of Southern
Minnesota" and Stienkes stars Of
Vernon Center was staged on the Am
boy diamond yesterday. as wet grounds
prevented the game in Vernon. Long
before the players appeared. the grand
stand and surrounding. territory was
of the rival team and it was whispered
that self appointed book makers were
more than busy taking care Of those
who were anxious to back their juds-
ment with something more then wind.
At promptly three O'Clock the decks
were cleared ana the long-looked for
battle began. Vernon S "murderer's 8
row" started 1t on with bang and
when the smoke cleared away the dazed
Amboyites found themselves with four
runs against them. Amboy was unable
TO do anything in their half and for
the next three innings air tight ball
stub Noonan's triple ' ernon again broke
loose gaining three runs and making
the score seven to nothing in favor OF
Vernon. No more scores were chalked
up by either side for the balance Of
Amooys terrific defeat may be at
tributed to over confidence and lack of
team work, which could not be overcome
BY the individual playing members Of
Its over confidence has been displayed
in there boasts that no team in this
part OF the country could beat them,
and until Sunday. they seemed to have
fioored there claim. defeating every
team they played. loosing one game to
Blue Earth out Of two Vernon had like
wise a record to be proud Of but about
which they have been nodestly silent.
The Overwhelming defeat which Vernon
administered to Nmboy, would really
justify Amboy in claiming Vernon to
the champion ball-team Of Southern
Minnesota, however Vernon is willing
to start the test on the diamond. and is
ready to accept all comers.
The, game was marked by the clean
ball played by both sides, and the cap
able umpiring of DR.. Glasly and MIR:
Ulrich whose fair decisions were well
received by all. While the game was
hard fought all the way? the lack Of
grabbing made it much more interest
ing to the fans, and showed that a hot
game can be played without everyone
Grabbing. r.
All in all the game was a most en-
joyable test Of mIer Of the two teams,
which resulted as before mentioned in
the score Of to 0, in favor of Vernon.

FAIRMONT'S VERSION

Fairmont Sentinel,-Mankato got

it by hospitality extended to the
guests. .,.g. ,.

of ladies were entertained at dinner
and a dance at the beautiful club
building.
Coach Anderson had the best
score of the Fairmont visitors,
making Is holes in s83. Henry Gun
narson was second with 81. Henry
played 40 on the hrst round, and
should have won his match, but he
had bum partner. This is SER
ious handicap when playing against
Bill Rabe and Tope Nicholson, es-
pecially when Bill and Tope get to
knocking of twos and threes.

which was inestimabfe value to
growing crops, which had began to
suffer from the continued hot weath
er and lack of moisture. What was
true of the crops was also true OF
the pastures, which had began to
take on a scared look. According to
the government rain gauge operat-
ed at this. city by John J. Pihale,
there was a rainfall of 1.60 inches,
which is very heavy and supplied
the much needed moisture to the
earth.
Following the rain the weather
came off coos, which was a lucky
think from the small grain. The
storm was accompanied by loud
thunder and vivid lightning. A
large tree was struck by bolt in
this city near the Teachers College,
and large tree in front Of the
Harry Perrin cottage at Madison
Lake was struck during the rain.
AS far as can be determined. the
benefits from the rain far exceed
the damages. It is reported that In
some low spots, where the grain
was exceedingly heavy that il was
lodged, but yesterdays continued
cool breezes caused much of it to
pick up. Those who have large ac,
reages Of potatoes planted this
year, predict a bumper crop.
