YIE WIN
White Sox Play Fine Game
Score, 15 to 4
The game of ball played at ClaU.
kanie Sunday by the St. Helens and
Clatskanle teams was won by our
boys by a score of 15 to 4.
At ten o'clock Sunday morning
the launch Charm left St. Helens
for ClaUkanie bearing the St Hel
ens Base Ball team and quite a
bunch of faithful, hotwful fans who
pinned their faith to Manager Wil
kin's bunch to lower the colors of The
Clatskanle Gardeners. The same
launch returned Sunday night bear
ing the same crowd hut before the
launch reached the dock, you would
have known that the faithful, hojie
ful funs had inspired our boys with
sufficient "'p" and that the game,
was St. Helens'.
The battery for St Helens was
Stevens and Jamieson while ClaU
kanie relied on Joe Haggin and Mc
Donald. Now when Joe went into
the box, w knew the game was
ours, for we have always had his
"goat", so just to show what we
thought of it we took four runs as
our share right off the reel. After
this, we salted the game away little
by little, never giving the Garden
ers a look in, although we must give
them credit for making a game
fight but with Stevens' arm in fine
shape and Jamieson doing the re
ceiving like an old leaguer and with
the rest of the boys playing big
league ball all the time, there was
never any doubt as to the result
We won't state any individual
plays, although there were a lot
of them, but everybody was in the
game every minute, and the game
was well worth going to see. An
other thing, those rooters we had
along, they heled us a whole lot;
they were right there with the right
kind of rooting to help Ji team and
keep them together. St. Ik'ens
has a stronger team now than ever
before and when Kelso comes next
Sunday, there will be another real
game of ball and if our boys can
play the kind of jam up ball they
did Sunday, there'll be a game well
worth going to see.
