Toledo Again
SWamps Indians
In Baseball Came
Locals Chase Adams to Bench
in Four Innings After Making
12 Hits and 13 Runs; Albert
son Effective as Is Hall.

The Indians came, they saw, but
they did not conquer.
The Toledo baseball team came near
handing the SiietZ Indians another
shutout on the local diamond Sunday
when they gave them drubbing to
the tune of IA to three. The Indians
scoring all came in the eighth inning
when two little singles, two errors on
the part Of Toledo players and a stol-
en- base allowed them to put three men
across the plate. With the exception
of this one inning the Indians never
Lad a chance to score.
Hall, pitching for Toledo, allowed
but two hits up to the eighth inning
and it sure looked like another goose
egg for the Red Men. However. the
locals played a little loose in the
eighth and the Indians managed to
save themselves a shut-out.
Adams, Siletz pitcher, had it all
doped out that he was going to get
even on the local team for the beating
they administered to him at Newport
On July 4, but in the four innings he

Highway UnIawfulIy CIOsed

There is considerable COM
plant from tourists and others
because the cross state highway
between Laclede and Meadville
is closed by the drainage ditch.
1t is claimed that the drainage
association nor the contractor
