La Orande fans and bugs saw an exhibition of baseball yesterday that sparkled with class A playing and never assumed ' thd class D type In which section the Biker City and La Orande teams travel. Never was there anything particu larly sensational 1 the game, except when Dill, center fielder for Baker, burked under a fly and nailed It. He fairly fainted when he learned he had retained possession of It. There were errors all right, but they were seldom costly and the way La Crande held together, and the visitors too, In fact, was a bit of delight to tho shivering fans on the blcecher. "Lefty" Fuchel was In tho box for La Crande and did his part well. ' it demonstrates the fnct that tho O'Brien ( squad has a duet of twlrlers hard l' ' beat. But honors were not all In the pitching department. The battle wh a royal one between he and Campbell for the visitor. , The Inttcr won considerable fnme last year with Boise, and has surely won a home with Manager Cryderman. The way he pulled himself out of hole after .hole was csuse for applause. Things .moved along like clock worl: until the fourth inning, when Four nlrr's; two-bagger and Kooeer's sln 3' registered O'Brien who wss run ning for fournler. Foumler elspped the sphet on the noee for a pretty two-baee fen.

O'Brien came In to the. register sta tion. The next Inning was a pitchers' battle right In the sixth, however. La Orande got Its hitting eye alt In a bunch and scored the second and last tally of the game. Fournler was thrown out at first, Van Horst was given transportation to first and had Immediately hied himself to third, where he was punished for being foxy. Kooser landed on the Initial bag by Campbell's error and he, too, was soon meandering third-ward. Ho scored on the catcher's error when the third strike was dropped and Chllder'a got to first. Fuchel was thrown out, retiring the side. That put a finishing crimp In La Grande's scoring machine. . The fans were shouting for a shut out, but fate decreed otherwise. The only really big hit that Baker got was In the eighth and It meant a score. Price slammed a lulu Into the middle garden that no sane, man could get. Lee sacrificed and Wilson was caught out. but his long drive to Zlmmermnn meant a registration by Price. Jan sen retired the side when he dittoed Wilson's performance to Zimmerman. La Grande has not seen a better bal anced game In years. If the club continues to play this sort of ball It will be supported, all right.
