BISBEE OUTSLUCS DOUGLAS TO
TAKE BASEBALL GAME SATURDAY

In free hitting game at the Warren
park, the Bisbee team outhit the Doug
las team, IA to 5, and took the first
game of the southern Arizona con-
ference. A high wind interfered and
the park grounds had not been worked
over this year so errors We're plentiful
on both sides The Douglas team made
no less than dozen errors during the
nine-inning melee. The Bisbee team
Jared trifle better in that respect.
Arthur Pine and Leslie Miller each
made two hits, and the balance of the
team made but one hit. Gutierrez had
the locals feeding out of his hand with
a slow ball, while Cary and Nemeck
moundsmen for the Douglas high, were
clicked for IA safe hits, including four
two baggers and two circuit wallops.
The first inning was full of thrills
for both teams, as the Bisbee aggre-
CATION stopped rally after Pine and
Miller had both singled by pulling a
fast double play, Gray to Holt to Har-
gis. The Douglas team started the
first inning with triple play when
Shotwell, playing short, took Gray's $
hot drive near second, stepped on the
base to double Wittenau and tossed to
Herbert at first to catch Holt six feet
off the bag. Shafer's hit to center field
and Hargis' homer had come before
this fast triple play.
Coach Granger used 16 players in the
game, giving every candidate chance
to play a part of the game.
The same teams play next Saturday
in Douglas. Several changes in the
Douglas lineup will strengthen the
team The inter-class series will be
completed Monday and Tuesday of this
week The freshmen and sophomores
tangle in the first game Monday. This
will be a feature game in which Hal
Chase, Jr., will play first base for the
sophomore team. His presence in the
lineup will add considerable strength
to the second-year team, who suffered
a defeat at the hands of the seniors
last week Chase is not eligible to
play against other high school teams,
but there is no ruling for class series.
Chase throws left handed and bats
from the right side.
The game Tuesday will decide the
school championship, when the juniors
and seniors cross bats. Both teams are
confident of victory, but from past per-
formances the seniors have a slight
edge, although the juniors may prove
