Jimmy has made good. Glib Eimers
was drafted into service to fill the
vacant job at first, and in addition to
playing good ball, has helped to keep
the infield boat from rocking. Bill
Heath, high school player, has
good record on second, while Dale
Foust and Urb Lester have alternated
at short and in the outfield. Foust
is also a high school player who will
stand watching. Dutch" Hazelbaker
staked his claim again to third, and
has been on the job in every game
played this year. Joe Derrig has alter
mated at second and outfield. Dick
Derrig, another high school player,
has been developed as first baseman
and outfielder, while John Eimers and
Lloyd Powell, also high school boys,
have been worked in the outfield.
Rowley Call still another youngster,
has shown a lot of speed both in the
infield and outfield. Alva Hazelbaker,
like Call, goes well in either infield
or outfield. Alva is also a high school
boy. In fact with all the younger
boys on the job, good fast team
could be developed without going out
side of the ranks of the high school.
Even for pitchers, John Eimers and
themselves creditably, and with more
experience will be heard from again.

the batting honors lodged securely in
the Hazelbaker family, and with Tom
heading the list. Dutch" Jimmy and
Alva follow in order named, and the
combination has spelled grief for
many an opposing pitcher this season.
In the batting the Grangeville young
sters, especially when facing some
strong pitchers, naturally have shown
a little timidity. However, among
these boys there is some real material
for good stickers.
Clarence Heath, in the pitching end,
has had to bear the brunt of the work
this year, due to Tom Hazelbaker's
rheumatism. Late in the season
Hazelbaker took up the job again and
revealed flashes Of his old time form.
Heath pitched some mighty good ball
games, but had the misfortune a
couple of times Of having his support
go bad on him.
While the attendance at games this
year dropped off considerably, the
club ended its season in good shape,
with all bills paid and its equipment
in splendid shape for the first game
in 1926.

ROWS
OVER DECISION
BY UMPIRE

In a holly contested game Sunday,
the Grangeyille ball club grabbed the
deciding game of the Ferdinand
Grangeville series, and annexed the
championship of the Camas Prairie
and Clearwater river towns. The
score was to 4. SIS
Tom Hazelbaker's pitching had the
game pretty well under control for
the locals at all stages, although some
infield errors put the pitcher in bad
way several times. The visitors and
the locals were pretty well divided In
the matter of errors, both sides having
six demerit marks chalked against
them.
Hazelbaker allowed five hits; John
son, his opponent, six. The Grangeville
pitcher struck out eleven men, while
only eight guessed wrong on the Ferdi-
nand curves. Nobody walked on
Hazelbaker, while johnson issued one
free trip.
Hopes Run Low
Things looked badly for the locals
at the start when Ferdinand, the first
time up. crowded in score when
Grangeville fell down on the second
section of an attempted double play.
The Grangeville boys retaliated the
first time up by registering three runs.
Again in the fourth frame the locals
went strong, and brought in two. In
the next two innings Ferdinand
threatened to even things up, running
the score up to to 4, but the boys
shut down hard and cut off further
scoring. On the other hand they sue
ceeded in pounding in three more
runs, and took the game out of the
doubtful class.
The combined observation-disclosures
outfit took their defeat especially hard
as they had imported players especial
ly for the occasion from Lapwai, Kam-
iah and Winchester. Grangeville
played only with home boys, as 1t has
done in every game played this sea-
son. sa t-sssN
Trouble Over Decision
The game was a desperate affair
from start to finish, and at one stage
of the proceedings the visitors
threatened to break up the session
over decision at third base. A Ferdi-
nand runner lodged around behind
the Grangeville third baseman, caus-
ing him to miss him when he at
tempted TO touch him with the ball.
George Foust, umpiring for Grangeville.
called the runner out for running out
side the line. The Ferdinand bunch
wouldn't see it that way, and play was
suspended while the argument waxed
warm. Foust, seeing no reason for
changing his decision, stood pat. FL
nally in the interest of peace and
harmony, it was agreed to pass the de-
cision up to Sasse, the Ferdinand UNI
pire, but he declined with thanks. The
Grangeville management then request
ed Foust to give the visitors their own
way, and the umpire, rather than have
the game break up, let the Ferdinand
runner stay at third.

MAY GET WAR TROPHIES
BY PAYING FREIGHT

Idaho towns desiring trophies of the
World war should make application
to Gov. c. @. Moore, 1t was an
nounced at his office following
receipt of a letter from Addison
T. Smith, representative in congress.
Congressman Smith said the law APP
propriating the trophies was passed
by congress June and in accordance
with its provisions state executives
ore designated as the persons charged
with the distribution. He said mum
erous applications had been addressed
to him already.
The number of trophies apportion-
ed to any one state depends on the
number Of soldiers serving in the war
from that state.
Under the terms of the bill tn"
u. S. government pays fine cost OF
hacking and loading, but the several
states must pay the freight. The
trophies consist of field pieces, with
their carriages, machine guns ana
other equipment captured from Ger
many and allied nations
Idaho has no funds which might be
used to pay freight on this material
and if the state, as a whole, is to get
any it will be required to wait until
the legislature makes an appropriation
to pay the freight. The governor
suggested that cities and towns might
finance the freight themselves.

SOCIALISTS WILL HAVE
.es.Ho TICKET IN IDAHO

Boise-Idaho's fourth party, the
Socialist, has entered the race for the
fall. Late last Saturday night, just
before the books closed, the state or
ganizer filed the last of the 1894
names required to place his party on
the state ticket.
The fourth group is confident it
can get some place this fall and cites
the fact that it had 3S7 names more
than needed. While certain political
leaders discussed a possible fusion of
this group with the Progressiyes
there were others who pointed out
that Ada county members of the So
cialist party had tried to connect Ray
McKaig, leader in the third party
movement, and II. f. Samuels with
the capitalist party because Of al
legged letters in which they had made
statements friendly to Senator w. Il.
Borah, who will undoubtedly be the
Republican choice for the U. S. SEN
atorship.
Dopesters were unable to determine
Just what position the new group
would take in the fall elections. The
Socialists control, normally, about
5000 votes and politicians say may
this fall hold the balance of power
so far as the governorship is con-
cerned.

EVERY INDIAN is
NOW U. S. CITIZEN

Provided the various states that EN-
brace their reservations will set up the
necessary machinery, thousands or
Indians will become voters in the com
ing elections as a result of the citizen
ship act passed at the recent session
of congress.
With the passage of The law every
native-born Indian in The United
States automatically became citizen.
Commissioner Burke recently estinat-
ing the number at approximately
125,000.
At least one-fourth Of this number,
n is calculated, are adults and there
fore entitled to vote except in states
where the election laws fix certain
qualifications, such as educational
property ownership or payment OF poll
taxes, that the new Indian citizens
may not be able to meet. az

victories for the season a defeat Of
Lewiston's salaried team, and two vic.
tories over the Occur d'Alene Indians.
semi-professional team that ranks
among the best in Inland empire
baseball.
Grangeville played a record number
of games this season and won eleven
of the sixteen games taken ON. Win
chester, Ferdinand and Kamiah were
the other teams that got away with
game apiece. Grangeville's easy DE-
feat of Winchester ON the Fourth and
the playing off of the tied series with
Ferdinand-C raigmont Sunday, with
another easy victory, easily estab-
fishes Grangeville in first place so far
as the prairie and Clearwater towns
are concerned. Kamiah is eliminated
on the basis of badly mussed up
record, while Winchester's record is
almost negligible because of the few
games played. Winchester declined
Grangeville's invitation to play off the
tied series between these two.
Orofino Is the only important team
Grangeville has not crossed bats with
this season, and the arrangements of
the two teams were unable to get to-
gether on terms. Orofino, however,
is out of the running ON account of
its defeat by Nezperce.
Play Consistent Ball
With the exception Of bad mid
season slump, the Grangeville club
has maintained pretty consistent
standard of baseball throughout the
season. The loss of some good players
and heavy hitters in the latter part
of the season was compensated for
by the improvement of the pitching
staff as the season advanced. The loss
of Dale Eimers and Cyril Basinger
was felt particularly in the batting
department, and this, with the alb
sence of Jimmy Altman, Rowley Call
and John Eimers, all out of the game
for various reasons, weakened the
lineup considerably. eNi M
Jimmy Hazelbaker was switched
from first to catcher when Eimers

SEES DANGER IN

At FALL FAIRS

Removal of cattle from Idaho to
outside points for exoibiting ar fairs
and shows is discouraged by Mark
A. Means, commissioner Of agricul-
ture, because of possibility of foot

state by that means.
The commissioner argues that

will want to restocS their herds and
that since 80 percent of the cases of
foot and mouth disease are trace
able to the human agency In trans

quests Saturday relative TO shipping

of these was from d. A. Caldwell, sec
