WILLIAMS LOSES TO
 WINSLOW II TO z

Wright for w 1nSlOW, put IuS wrong MT. Wright for Williams uncovered mighty right right right from the very first inning over at Cureton Park last Sun dav afternoon. Particularly true was this during the eighth lnn1ng. for just when we had MT. Wright right, Wright lighted himself and retired the side with the bases full and no one out. Right then Williams funeral rite began.
 Too much write-right-rite- Wrighti That's what the whole Williams team thinks.
 Two weeks ago the Williams and Winslow teams played one of the fastest and best games of ball ever played on North ern Arizona diamond. Upon that occasion Winslow was the ion. With the same batteries and with practically the same lineup, everyone was prepared to witness a close and interest ing game. It is the uncertain ty of base ball that makes it popular, and never was this fact better illustrated than on last Sunday.
 Shill started off for Williams by hitting the frso man up, and before he settled down, Wins low scored three runs. Will Hams then came to bat, and MT. Wright, of whom mention has been made, uncovered his cele- brated submarine" delivery. Starting from an elevation of some six feet two, MT. Wright's elongated pie crane descends with swoop until his hand is within a few inches of the ground, whereupon the sphere apple-pellet, or whatever you wish to designate it, is released and comes floating to the bat ter. From the grand stand it looks like pity to hit it. In- stinctively you feel sorry for both MT. Wright and the ball for both are going to get walloping. The batter takes a swing-a mighty swing. Some how or other you failed to hear the resounding whack of leath- CT coming in contact with wood. Look, the catcher is throwing the ball back to the pitcher! Did the batter miss it? He did Just as the balloon-like ball neared the plate, it shrivel- ed into a pea. It took a sud- den jerk-up, down, in, or out The batter started to strike at 1t, hesitated, changed his mind. and finally cut loose. The ball however, wasn't exactly where he anticipated it would be, and after making two more at tempts to land on it, retires to the bench. This may ans wer for a description of the game, for it is about all IT ho+ there was to it. Neither Sell man, Proctor, Cooke nor Humphries could hit MT. Wright. They were power less before that old sweeping underhand delivery, and prac- tlcally the best and only hitting that was done by Williams play CTS came from unexpected sources.
 There was one real thrill in the game-during the eighth inning. Dick Cole, the first man up, smashed out neat single. Shaul, pinch hitting, followed with a hit over sec end. upon which Cole went to third. ShauI went to second on the first ball pitched, Clark making a bluff throw to catch Cole, but the later did not bite. Sull1vant came up and hit a slow grounder to the pitcher, who threw Cole out at the plate when the later attempted to score. Cooke, struck cue, but reached first when Clark miss ed the third strike, filling the bases, with one man down. 1 The crowd was in a frenzy as Proctor advanced to the plate, | and we'll it might be-for in the offing stood "Old Reliable" Harry Sellmon, bat in hand, l ready to put the finishing touch es to the game should |EProc" get on.
