PAGE 8 LA GRANDE E VENEiG.OBSERVER, , MONDAY, MAY 1, 1911. TjiEYERS' SINGLE IS G1E TWO SUBSEQUENT SCORES COME BY WILD HEAVE. BakeUs Strength Lies' in Weber Mc lnnis Good and Supported Well Two successive shutouts against Baker is the record of the La Grande club of the Eastern Oregon 1 ague, now thut each town in that league has Been a baseball game. La Grande won yesterday 3 to 0 and local fans ar well, satisfied with the showing of the lo cate. It wa3 an ideal day for a game and the fans baseball hungry for many months were out In full Xorce, 646 pay ing at the gate. The game was up to expectations and though lacking the snap and smoothness of th initial game at Baker, was good enough for any semi-professional t:am and that is the general opinion in the city today. The feat of shutting out the visitors the second time was accomplish :d by a fair good presentation of baseball In which every member of the team figured and .Mclnnis was given good support as good support as any home team composed of working men can produce this early in the season. Visiting Ktcher Whirl Ind. Stone, the visiting pitcher Is the re- deemng feature of the. Baker team. Hla hittlnar, flfltdinr nl twirling exceptionally good and without him Baker would be at sea,. With a record of striking out 15 men and then losing the game, the- follow's ability and his support are pretty well told. How ever Baker's team needs renovation at second or short and with such an Improvement would be good tnoufeh for any brush league. , ' How Points Were Jladf. ; With plenty of near-home situations to thrill the crowd, the contest went along until the fourth s:ssion when the. big pan made one racket Bradley led off with a little hit and stole sec ond and was advanced to third by Cobb's sacrifice. Cotner laid down a neat bunt that was fielded, to the- plate where Bradley- was called out on a dose decision, but It left Cotner on first on a fielder's choice. He stole E tond and was scored from there by Meyers who leaned against one of Stone's offerings with fine. efTect. This was the only earned run of the game and it was not until the sixth again that th- old home plate was disturbed though two or three times during the game there were close decisions to make at the home plate. It was Jack son's wild heave, that let In two runs in the sixth. Incidentally the pop-up fly issue arose and though the um pire settled it to the apparent re quirements of the rul:, there is sti'l a question as to the point involved and the best authority In the country will ba asked to settle it. It was almost identical with the play which came up at Baker a week ago rather a Btrange coincidence. Proe started the Inning with a hit and went second on a passed ball by the catcher. Then Bradley got the transportation route, making a man on first and one on sec ond, In whlclf instance the pop-up flf rule applies. Well, Cobb, next up, lammed one a little over the pitcher's head and then th; decision came. Um pire Tuttle called the batter out, but he had not "sung out" designating 't an infield or outfield hit. He did this later so his decision was legal though to be true blue should have been des ignated Immediately. s Anyway, La Grande scored in that Inning, for Mey- was true yesterday and the man at bat hits a pop-up fly, the batter shall be out and the runners remain on their bases, provided the umpire sings out Infield or ouifleld hit With the ex ception of a bad bounder that came his way Bradley fielded clean. Stoddard got off bad' with a minor error but made up for it all right, all right. Cobb, the Oklahoma lad known as "Ty," took the only chance coming to him and sot a putout and also did some good sticking. ' Cotner's bunt made a seor; possible and his playing was. up to standard. He got no chances in the field. Proe grabbed the only thing coming to him and hit like a troo:r. Conley's pegs to ba3?s yesterday was sup,rb.' As a receiver ha wotka well, too. : Mclnnis work ca the mount wa3 almost faultless. He f elded, struck out men in tight ho'..s and used good judgment alwaj-3. Tu!tle mn'lo his mistakes every one does. He tried lo be fair and t great big chromo Is coming to him for maintaining order. He absolutely refused to discuss the problems with anyone but the captains and threaten ed to bench Bradley at one time when a close decision was made. Tuttle was liberally applauded for his disci pline. , ELGIN STAYS ON THF TOP MILL EMPLOYE INJURED MAN EMPLOYED AT THE OYERTOX MILL SUFFERING FIMhtt FALL. ; ; , arery family has ow ot good, reiuuM five (5) per cent of the amount of the j naiment.

Mclnnis's offerings were not accept ed freely. His peculiar throwlngs were mysterious and at no time did the visitors make much use of his presentations. He did not strike out as many, by far, as "stone, but fewrr hits were made off him, and he fielded his position with much better style than a week ago. Still, La Grande's, squad is tot dependent entirely on the pitcher like Baker and with one or two minor exceptions, the whole . team fielded clean throughout the game. The general opinions expressed on all sides was that if La Grande con tinues to put up the sample of ball seen yesterday the players will get the hearty support of the town. The score sheet presents a very in teresting story for the game.

To a husky youug man . shoveling twenty tons of coal a day may not Mund like a terrible undertaking, but that is because he falls to appreciate the difference between shoveling that quantity in the course ot a ten hour day, standing on a steady footing and pausing for a moment whenever he feels like It to gaae at the scenery or light a cigarette and trying to keep bis balance on a Jolting, Jerking, plung ing steel deck which tries ceaselessly to pltcb him bend first into the side of the cab. while with legs spread wide ipnrt he humps over a scoop shovel, working with frantic energy to get coal into the firebox fast enough to keep steam up. While the engine is running the fireman must be straddled out on the deck, working continually to the limit of bis strength, for ordi narily be will have to get from two and a half to three tons of coal into the firebox every hour. Three and a half tonls generally reiirded as the limit of a fireman's caimoity, but this has been greatly excelled on the fastest trains. Technical World Magazine.
