MT. RAINIER BLANKS GRIZZLIES

The High School Grizzlies suffered their third
defeat last Friday at the local field, when they
shut out II to Oty the strong Mt. Rainier team.
Toorns, visiting pitcher, limited boys to
just , hits, by Andrus and by Underwood. Bill
Alexander, Bernie Underwood and Andy Freeman toiled
the mound for Greenbelt, but could not stop the
slugging veterans of ut. Eainer.
There was no sadness about that one-oided score,
because the boys phlosopically reaI zed that they
had just played team of veteran players who, nan
for man, seemed much older and handled the ball wi
more experienced twist Of the wrist than the
Grizzlies. Nary of the local boys young and
far from being as experienced they might be.

Elections
Board To Be
Designated

Members of the Vance County
Board of Elections will be appointed
by the State Board OF Elections at
meeting to be held in the next few
weeks, in ample time for the work
of preparing for the 1910 primary,
it was said today by A. w. Gholson,
Jr., chairman Of the county board.
No change in the personnel Of the
local board has been talked. W. b;
Daniel is secretary Of the board, ana
John +. Hicks the Republican MEM
Der.
Registration books for the primary
election are expected to open Satur-
day. April 20, to be open for three
weeks. On Saturday, May l8, the
books will be open for challenges,
and the first primary will be held
Saturday, May 25.
1t was estimated that the election
would cost Vance county more than
usual this year because the elections
board would be deprived of the filing
fees of the register of deeds, the clerk
of superior court and the sheriff, also
the county coroner, which carries,
however, only a minimum fec.
The county ticket this year IS en-
pected to be rather short, by COM
parison with other years, because OF
the absence OF contests for these Of
fices. Indications, too, are that the
State ballot may not be as heavy as
usual with contests, except for the
race for governor, in which six aCoW-
cd candidates are already bidding for
thc votes of Democrats
