FLETCHER WIN
CO. FEATURE
Local L.aguers to Confer
Saturday to Iron Out
Difficulties
By E. H. CASE

Fletcher's fast-stepping, deter
mined baseball stars put on the
pressure at Fletcher Saturday af-
ternoon and subdued East Flat
Rocks hard-driving team 7 to A,
to feature the league activities of
the day.
The game was only seven-in-
ming flair, being stopped by rain
at the beginning of the eighth, but
Fletcher had it all over the first
half winners all along. Baldwin
did the pitching for the 1888
chGtnps and held the visitors pref
ty' we'll subdued while his team
m ates were pounding Jackson, E.
F at Rock freball artist, pretty
r ard and consistently.
TNilkie and NJ. ~Bagwell hit
triples for Fletcher and Jackson
got a three-bagger for E. Flat
/ Rock Baldwin struck out nine
men.
SALUDA AT GREEN RIVER
The Saluda Mountain Toppers
came up to Green River and liter
ally annihilated the terrible Is
landers, IT to 3. Most of the Is
landers' players were elsewhere
following other and less strenuous
pursuits and the Mountain Top
pers had little trouble with those
who were brave enough to give
battle in the hopeless and one
sideC fracas.
FR'JITLAND AT MILLS RIVER
Mills River defeated Fruitland
. to Z on the formers diamond,
out Fruitland has protested the
game on a balk decision which
they claim was wrong and pre-
vented the team from tying the
score. This will be looked into at
baseball meeting at the court
house Saturday night.
VALLEY HILL AT BALFOUR
After being kept idle for sew
eral weeks by rain, the Valley Hill
Killers journeyed down to Balfour
and essayed to play Brisco Crisp,
his umpire and his charges a bit
of baseball. But they ran into
more complications than China or
Austria ever heard of and only
succeeded in absorbing a Is to l
drubbing before a merciful rain
halted the slaughter at the begin
ming of the eighth inning. The
Killers did everything wrong and
looked bad doing it in reverse or
adverse fashion. They committed
II errors and could only collect
seven scattered hits off the south
paw slants of Carl Hammond
while Balfour's lads were collect
ing Is hits off R. Drake and Err
mando Horatius Cascarindo. But
Cascarindo has protested the
game because of violations of the
league rules and regulations. He
is also entering the July 18th
game between Valley Hill and
Balfour in the league standing as
win for Valley Hill and a loss
for Balfour. Valley Hill won the
game by 10 to score and it
should have been in the league
standing all the time, but Brisco
Crisp, Balfour's manager and the
Primo Camera of the county
league, protested on a minor tech
nical decision so loudly that En-
mando halfway agreed to play
the darn thing over again and sub
Seuuently left it out of the stand
ing. But Ermando's heart has
hardened now and the mighty
Crisp is invited to do his durndest
about it. Valley Hill won the game
fairly and squarely and it is 90
ing to stay Won. Any committee
that rules that the game must be
played over Or thrown out might
as well rule Ermando Horatius
Cascarindo and the Killers out
of the league, for we don't do
business the Crisp way.
BALFOUR AT E. FLAT ROCK
E. Flat Rock defeated Balfour
7 to 6 in a postponed game play
ed off at E. Flat Rock last We'd
nesday afternoon. The contest
was featured by the fine pitching
of Jackson for E. Flat Rock and
the hitting of B. Crisp of Balfour.
Jackson struck out almost twenty
men. Crisp hit home run and a
