Everybody in Ely's lineup got more
than a single; Biederman smacked
the sphere for a homerun. After
Virginia had obtained a fiye-run
lead in the first two innings Ely
brandished their bats in a meaning

eighth.
The game was played at Eveleth

Virginia was forced to use three
pitchers with none of them proving

each side and the game in general
was of the sandlot variety but Ely
won so all's well.

Alturas, CAL, Jan. PA. Gutz-

witness to a spectacle not often seen
by human beings, that of a deadly
combat between two male deer with
their horns interlocked.
Gutzman, who is deaf, came on the
duelists in a wilderness near here
and was within 25 feet of them be-
fore he saw them or they sensed his
presence. When the bucks noted the
intrusion, they ceased fighting and
scrambled away, their horns still
locked, to a point hardly 100 yards
distant, where the battle was re-
sumed. Gutgman did not again APP
proach the animals. Instead he no
titled the game warden, and the next
day an investigation was made. The
bucks could not be found, but the
trail they had left for miles told
eloquently of the terrific battle. In
