PAGE 8 CROOK COUNTY JOURNAL BABY BEAVERS WIN 4 GAMES STRAIGHT Special Services at Methodist Church Rupert's Braves Play Clean Ball and Are Honored IS EARLY IN THE SEASON ARE CHAMPIONS OF THE STATE Prineville Men Make a Good Showing But Are Outclassed By Choice of Portland Defeated in four straight games in the series of last week, the Prineville ball team is united in their statement that the Baby Beavers who were victorious, are a team of clean, able men, and that the Prineville team was given clean, fair play in all of the games bete during the week. Three of the four games were Tery close and it seemed that at least two of these would fall to the locals, but fate and an excellent team were against them, and two games, that of Friday and Sunday closed with a 5-4 score in favor of the Portland team. On Thursday the score stood 8-5 and on Saturday 9-5. These games, like the two others men tioned, were hard fought, and in fact tne entire series was an ex hibition of the sport that has been seldom equaled on the Prineville diamond. The feature of the, series in so far as Prineville players is con cerned, was the brilliant and unex celled work of Lake Bechtell and Robert Lister. These men de livered faultless ball, while the re mainder of Jordan's braves played excellent games, which it is safe to state, was a better brand of the sport than the Beavers would have " met on any other diamond m the interior of the sate. ft Is hoped that the Beavers will return some day, and that Prine ville will be in a little better trim, at which time the results will be different.
