State, and two by Captain Percy o.
Brien of Idaho, further enlivened the
altogether good game at the Fair
grounds field
Marineau Hero OF Game
Marineau was the hero of the after
noon. The crack left-flinger of Mac
Millan's team for the most part of the
game held the W. S. c. batsmen just
where he wanted them and only the
most peculiar of breaks kept him
from pitching shut out game. Mar
ineau, not only pitched a good game
of ball, but he was also in the game
every minute. He crossed men at
first base, backed up the bases, and
handled three assists and made three
putouts without sign of bauble.
w. S. C.'s lone run came in the ninth
inning. Rouse got the second hit off
Marineau, a single to right field. The
blow good only for a single, took
bounce and went past Ostrander.
Rouse, by fast base running, reached
third base. On the next play Bray hit
to O'Brien at first base and Rouse
scored. The third out made by Mari
neau himself, ended the game when
Moran knocked a grounder tt, MARI
neau who beat Moran to first base.
Edwards Scores for Idaho
Harry Edwards, Idaho's third base
man, scored both of the Idaho runs,
the first in the second inning and the
second counter in the sixth inning.
In the second inning, Edwards, first
man up, reached first on a hard hit
grounder through short He continued
on to second base when Washington
States left fielder juggled the ball.
Then Arnold Cooley, Idaho's star left
fielder, laced out the prettiest hit of
the game-a solid two ply swat,
clean two bagger, which scored Ed
wards easily from second base. Cob
ley reached third on the next play
but was caught for an out at home
On an attempted squeeze play.
Again in the sixth inning Edwards
scored the Idaho run. He was first
nan up and reached first on an error
by the Cougars short stop. Cobley's
pretty sacrifice hit placed him on
second base and he scored when Os-
rander laced out a clean single.
Fielding Enlivens Game

lis reputation as a premier snarer of
oul flies. Twice during the after
loon he drew right meritoriously a
land from the stands for two good
,atches Of foul flies after hard runs
veil outside the diamond. He con-
lected for one single and played a
tellar game in the field.
In the first inning Rouse of Wash
ngton State made a pretty catch of
tiver's liner, thereby robbing Stivers
f a hit. The fourth feature catch Of
he afternoon was that by Bray, w. S.
:. catcher, who caught a high foul
ly after a hard run.
Marineau struck out seven w. S. G.
atsmen and was not in really serious
rouble during the entire game. Cook,
ne cougar tW1rler, tanned five ldanO
alters.
