WIN FAST BALL GAME
SUNDAY AFTERNOON
In a baseball game which was
characterized bv excellent work on
the mound, the Uoseburg l.cglllars
si'.nday afternoon defeated the Kid
dle and Canvonville all stars by a
score of 4 to 0. The game was one
of the best ever played in Uoseburg,
as was attested by the frequent ap
plause of the crowd that thronged
the grandstand.
Medley, of Oakland, who occupied
(he mound for the locals, pitched ex
cellent hall and succeeded in fanning
t:l visitors. Medley has a number
of wicked twisters which kept the
visitors guessing throughout the ex
hibition. Only once or twice during
Ithe entire game did the outside ag-
;;reg:ition succeed in getting the ball
;out of the in-field. Medley not only
bus plenty of speed, but lias a head
which enables him to hold the un
divided support of his associates. The
support given Medley was good and
fully evinced lhe strength of the lo
cal team when placed in uneonifori
able quarters. Two or three times
the visitors sncreeded In gelling men
on the bases, but as often thev "died
before reaching the home plate.
Itice. who pitched for the visitors,
played all excellent game, but was
lacking In support. Two "flukes"
were probably responsible for nt
least thrt'e of the runs credited to
I the locals. Two of the runs were
1 made In the fonrlb inning, while the
inther two runs were made ill the
, nun inning.
