FIELDS SOAKED

That song. June Is Busting All
Over" usually applies to sunshine
and fair weather.
Sunshine and. fair weather. how
ever, were denied to Seattle Japa-
neSe diamond fans last Sunday.
Instead of a warm force from tho
skies, the rains came to dampen
the spirits of local sports enthu-
siaStS and send them scurrying
home with rain checks"
Four games in all we're postponed
in town.
The Nisei Vets, league leaders in
the blue section of the Puget
Sound league. were scheduled to
tangle with Sand Point at Columbia
rlayfield. That tilt was postponed
as downpour of rain soaked the
field before action started
Lotus Ms, pace settlers in The
Northwest Times Baseball League,
began their battle with the Mer-
chants at jefferson. Richard Tsu-
il of the Ms. who was in rare form,
whitfield the first two Merchants to
face him on six straight pitches,
threw n ball to the third batter,
and then the rains came.
Several hours later, jefferson was
fit for short swim around the
bases. The Travellers and the Lo-
tus Ashuras took their chances and
spanked off hostilities. After one
and half innings of play. the
Travellers were ahead Az. thanks
to a couple of free passes to first
base and two infield boots. But
then the liquids from the heavens
once more dropped heavily. Thirty
minutes later, League Director
Frank Yama who was umpiring
called the game off.
At Washington park, the situa-
ton was equally wet. Valley and
the winless Clippers we're rained
out.

The
Sporting Thing

The rains drowned all scheduled games in
The Northwest Times Baseball League last Sun
day, and also sank the first-rOund titular hopes
of four teams---Travelers, Valley, Lotus Ashu-
ras and Merchants
SO, it is hereby stated that optimism reigns
in the Lotus M camp
As things stand now, the undefeated Ms
practically dog-paddled their way into the
Northwest Four of July invitatOnal tournament.
They, however, must defeat Valley on valley
field this Sunday and the Merchants here the
spot in the meet.
following Sunday to assure themselves sure
Valley and Merchants both are dangerous
outfits which are not to be taken lightly by the
Ms.
IF either the Merchants or Valley whips
the Ms and if the Travellers win their remain
ing first-round games, then watch out for fire
works from the Travellers who are cunning for
M scalp.
There should be some interesting games the
during the Fourth of July holidays.

Hanagami scored the only real
knockdown of the night when he
put Perry on the canvas in the

armed local colored boy boxed
evenly with Mickey for two rounds,
but started taking more than he
gave in the third. Hanagami step
ped up the tempo in the final
canto and at the bell had to hold
up Perry and take him to his
corner

Now They Tell Us

''Who in the hill are the defending cham
pions in the Fourth of July baseball touna-
ment?''
The Western Giants, is the answer.
The Giants swept their Independence Day
opponents two straight years, 1910 and 1911.
There has been no other Fourth of July meets
until this one which is coming up this year.
The Fukuda Memorial Day trophy, we are
told, was awarded to the Nisei Veterans last
year for their Labor Day triumphs over Spo-
kane.
Say no more, but hail the Giants lest they
tumble!
