.PALACIOS LOSE
In HARD FOUGHT,
EXCITING CAME,
Ell Centric Boys VictOrs
in Z to 6 Score
Well Played

Fighting to the last ditch, and
threatening to tie the score after
two men were down in the last
half of the ninth. the Palacios of
Mexieali went down TO defeat yes
terday afternoon at the hands of
the Ell Centre baseball team in a
well played game at the palace
grounds in Mexicali, The final
score was to 6 and twice the Pal
acios sent the tying run in only to
have their man sent back to third
base on foul hits. The third time
he came i'll an attempt to steal
home, Rudy, the Ell Centre catch
err, jabbed him with the ball and
the game was over.
The game opened with shutout
for Ell Centre, while the Palacios
got two runs in their half of the
first inning, due to the unsteadi-
ness of Chick, the Ell Centre pitch
er. In the second inning, Ell Cen
tro came back with rush and
scored four runs off Cruz. The
Palacios went ahead once more in
the fourth when they scored two
more runs, one terrific home run
to right field. The game then
went along without scores until
the seventh. Chick was replaced
by Livingston in the fifth inning,
and the Palacios could do little
with his delivery.
Tie Score in Seventh
The Ell Centre gang managed to
tie the score in the seventh and put
across two more in the eighth for
good measure. 1t was good for
them they did, for they went out
in one, two, three order in the
ninth, and then came the Palacios
in last attempt to pull the game

from the fire. For q time it looked
as though they would succeed, and
in the exciting moments Living
ston showed his calibre by tighten
ing up and pitching excellent ball,
though he hit one man after he had
him at three and two. The Pala-
clos tried the squeeze play twice,
and each time the ball went foul.
When the third out came, there
was n feeling of relief for the local
boys, as the situation had been
tense with the crowd bowling for
another run and crowding out
toward the diamond.
Rudy Plays Well
One of the fine points of the
game was the excellent playing of
Rudy, the FL Centric catcher, who
is q whirlwind for pep and evil
IDENTIFY knows the game. Had the
Scorpions had him during the I'M
nerial Valley League season, the
result of the race might have been
different. The catcher's box was
one of the weak spots of the team,
and man like Rudy would have
strengthened it materially. Jack
Tackett played his usual brilliant
game at second and also played Il
good game in his head. The "old
rox" doesn't overlook much in the
way of opportunities and plays the
game hard. Baker and Buck in the
outfield, contributed several good
catches and most of the boys were
Oh their toes at all times.
Gov. Lugo Present
The arrangements for playing
the game were excellent, and some
of the plans might well be adopted
on this side of the line, particular
ly the work of the police in keep
ing the crowd off the playing SER
vice, and preventing small boys
from interfering with the view of
the spectators. Governor Lugo
was one of the most ardent fans,
and accepted the loss of the game
by his team as one of the breaks,
and hoped for q reversal when the
teams meet here next Sunday
The McXicali band was present
with it's usual excellent playing and
delighted the crowd with popular
and classical selections which help
ed to round out q most enjoyable
afternoon.

will probably result in alumni in
