HOUJf DAWfl MERE TRIFLE TO
WAY FIITISS SUFFER
Eicbaudy Ruthlessly Walloped and
n Team Coes Cp.
Very rotten baseball centering about
very punk pitching in the first In
stance, led La Grande to Ignominious
defeat yesterday at the hands of the
ruthless tribe of Walla Wallans. The
slaughter reads 19 to 3 and the exhi
bition was a general travesty on the
sport.
Etcbandy went the way of Mountain
and Maxmeyer the day before and al
lowed seven runs In an Inning. "Shine"
Harmon, the outfielder who has been
"In the hospital" with a sprained ten
don, was limped to the mound and fin
ished the game that Mclvor and Fos
ter might be saved for today and Sun
day. "Shine" lacked support or he
would have stormed much of the tre-
menduoiia scoring. One at a time
and not always that was his lot until
t!ie last two when everybody com
menced to boot 'fin around worBt than
Iliyan ever kl:ke.l Champ Clark's Mil
ju-k lmiin dawn around the convention
Moor at D.iltlinore. It was one of
those, dnys when even the tana com
menced to kick thlni-s around, Just to

KUng, Archer, Dooln, Bresnaban, Gib

Last year they added Chief Meyers of

bave long feared that the law would
be enforced especially as there baa '
been a general clamor for enforce
ment of the automobile license law :
which la part of this same bill. Tbe
Union county Motor club baa asked
District Attorney Ivanhoe for an In
terpretation of the measure and be
has found that, in bis opinion. It
means all vehicles, whether motor
propelled .or muscle propelled. Tbla
throws the entire situation Into a
quandary as any further attempts at
arrests of unlicensed automobiles In
this neck of the woods will very likely
lead to immediate enforcement of the
entire law, by certain auto folks as
enterpreted meaning every driver of
a horse and buggy will have to pro
vide a light at night This appears to
be fully aa much of a stipulation of
the law aa the license question, and
until the obnoxious portions are eli
minated there will be more or less of
a Joke regarding the entire law as it
now stands.
