Jimmlecanes, even, couldn't stop La , Grande's winning : streak yesterday when the fast Josephites were pitted against the homeguard in a rather skyrockety exhibition at the Lincoln park. Chllder's colts ended to the good, ten to eight For the first time this year In a home content, the locals were nearly all together nearly all the, time, and the consequences were pleasing. Mercury . hunting low planes, a stiff sou'-wester moved real estate, all trying to break down the endurance and slacken the speed of all players, yet except for occasional bum heaves and boneheaded stunt. the game progressed with consider able satisfaction to the home con- ' tingent '." ; ; ; ( It looked like an off day for La Grande in the first canto. Walters came up standing on first by M. Chlld- er s Bhuffle of a stiff grounder, and Kail followed with Bradley's sin fol lowing that of Chllder's. But the brief curtain riser was - shortlived; hereafter the boots were scattered and only occasionally costly. PIdock whipped one to Bradley and caught Walters, Bradley threw Pidcock put at first and Holllster made it three out by nabbing Man ion's fly. Thus the fight was on. La Grande tinkled the pan In the second session when, after a pretty blngle by Childers and he was stealing second, Brown whir! ed and threw blindly, heaving the sphere skyward. There were no sen sational stunts, much, except a pret ty catch by W. Childers when a foul skimmed close to the" left field bleach ers, and later In the game when Brad ley caught one that was sizzling past him like a meteor. One of the nret tiest bunts seen In many a day was mm uown oy Mcmnis. Mclnnis was' on the stellar position again for La Grande, and though he was touched up occasionally, none were really more than singles, not withstanding that runners often got second and third. The air currents meandering over the little lot flitted the ball hither and thither every time it went, high, and fielders had no dob- slble way of Judging flies. Conse quently a slam Into the gardens us ually meant a hit. But La Grande gave the twlrler more backlne from all corners that Is want ma tmH and the contest gave the fans what they were looking for plenty of ex- cltement. Shanks has improved , wonderfully with the willow and .ia I really a valuable adjunct to the team, j Bessler, tho new first sacker, fielded exceptionally well, though his stlck I work was weak. He took twelve j chances without a boot. Bradjey and ! 51. Childers fielded much better than - mey am earner In the season. It , might be well to remark that the Mc ( Innls did something besides shooting era In to the backstop for he got assists and a putout without errors. Manlon until a" week ago the coach at Mt.' Angel, the well known Catholic Institution team was back of the stick for Joseph and it was lie Thom Miss Supported by an Excellent Company Opens Ihursday, Evening, June 23 primarily his head work and steady catching that gave Joseph' its stabil ity. He got two hits himself to help things oat and is going to do wonders with the Joseph miners. All,. .'the players under him are willing enough bat fairly well and run bases on in structions, but lack the initiative and often do the wrong tljlng at the wrong time. Manion's nine will cut a figure yet before the season is .ojej. Brown, on the hill for Joseph,' lost his head "at critical moments, but threw a fairly good variety of twist ers and but for poor backing at times would have had a splendd record yes terday.'

O. King, with his Maxwell 30 horsepower stock car. Oldfleld lowered his previous record of one mile to 51 5-6, which Is a new coast record for the circular track. ; With the exception of this performance, Oldfleld had to take second place in the list of racing honors, as the world's champion met defeat 1 in both the five and fifteen mile handicap events, and in both races King and his Maxwell were the victors. In fact, King proved the : surprise of the meet, driving all of his races with much judgment and . taking the turns with his car as close to the fence as did Oldfleld. In the five mile handicap, Oldfleld drove his Knox racer to the utmost, but the handicap was too strong and he could not get the lead away from King. Not only in the handicap events did King ajad his Max well prove Btars of the first order, but in one of the first events of the day, the five mile race for cars costing from $1200 to $1600, which was one of the bestmatches of the meet. The time for the five mile handicap was as follows: Maxwell, King, 4.40.30; Oakland, Nelson, 4.48.25; Chalmers, West, 4.49.30; Auto Car , finished fourth, and the Knox car, Barney Oldfleld driving, fifth. In the event number eight, ten miles free-for-all handicap, King and his Maxwell again were the winners, the Maxwell's time being 8.19.30. . .'' ;,.(.,.;,.- i if. 2 5 2 0 i J. B.
