HOLBROOK TIES WINNSLOW
FOR NORTHERN LEAD

Last Saturday afternoon amid a
shower of sand Holbrook and Win
slow crossed bats in one of the clos
est and hard fought pitchers duels
of the season. Holbrook started off
with a rush pounding in five tallys
in the first frame and annexing an
other one in the third for their total,
the remaining six innings were
blanks. Winslow gathered in run
in the first, repeated in the third and
added their last one the fifth. Lee
for the Oil City pitched a stellar
game getting total of fourteen
strikeouts off Winslow, while Kimu-
ra shut out the drillers with seven
teen blanks at the plate. Winslow
featured the battle in the sixth with
a double play Kimura to Thornton
to Hitchcock. Holbrook and Win
slow now stand tied for the Northern
Arizona lead and probably will play
it off at the tournament at Flagstaff
May 1919.

80 TO 80 MILES. AN
HOUR SPEED OF BIRDS

Certain species of hawks have a
speed Of 200 feet a second, or about
1876 miles an hour, says the biological
survey of the United States depart
ment of agriculture. This might be a
suitable rate for a racing airplane
The canvasback duck can fly from 1870
to 100 feet a second, but its usual
rate Of 60 to 20 miles an hour would
be pretty fast to be enjoyable in a
plane making a pleasure trip.
The crow is the least rapid of a list
of 20 migratory birds, flying an in
significant average of As feet Sec
ond, or 80 miles an hour. OF course
this speed maintained steadily in an
automobile would mean very fair
rate of progress, defying the speed
laws in many communities. Most Of
the birds listed, however, do better
than the crow. Curlews and jack
snipes can fly s. and 85 feet second,
while quails, prairie chickens, and
ruffed grouse can make rs feet. The
dove can reach speed of 100 feet a
second, or 68 miles an hour, although
its usual rate is less. Redheads, blue
winged teals, green-winged teals, Can
ada geese, and different varieties Of
brant can fly over 100 feet per second,
ranging in speed from 68 to SO miles
an hour, but usually fly at a much
slower rate.
