A good brand of ball was played on the local diamond Sunday after noon by the St. Louis Blues and the Beavers. A good-sized crowd watched the Blues edge out vic- tory over Scotty's nine, one of the best games seen this year. The pitching was poor, accounting for the large scores, but three nice double plays and some good indi- vidual playing put thrill into the fray.
 In the first half of the first inning, Walker, Beaver right field CT, reached first on an error by the second baseman. Yost bunted, advancing Walker to second. Mon doker, next man up, hit long one to the left fielder who threw 10 second after making nice catch. Walker jumped out of the path of the ball and Ernst, Blue second baseman, tagged him before he had a chance to get back to the base, retiring the side.
