Hyas Tyhee King of the Buekaroos.
Je&s Garrett, hero of many a Paclfn
Coast league diamond battle, stopped
La Grande's winning streak momen
tarily, yesterday afternoon when he
lot Uie Pippins b s for three singles
and one triple while the men behind
him on tlie other hand were active
enough to send over 11 runs. Gar
rett's pitching was beautiful and he
was the principal attraction of the
game.
w PlU'her Fuzzier. .
Coming within three of equalling
the strike-out record of the Trl-State
league, Bert Fltchner, the new Pip
pin twlrler, made for himself a pe
culiar record. Awkward Maxmeyer
never was In wilder form than Fitch-
r was at times, yet he struck out 12.
He walked seven men and was hit
lylu times, enough certainly to make
11 runs for any team. Yet In Justice
o the new twlrler, let it be known
that the Pippins threw him down and
some of the smashes that went for hits
would have been easy outs under or
dinary conditions. Fitchuer's fielding
was gilt edged.
The team lacked tiie united strength
of the day previous and Pendleton
probably never, worked any better.
Garrett deserved to win, though not
by the score that he did.
Early Scores JIailc.
Pendleton produced two tinkles of
the pan that the fans go crazy about
In the Initial canto. Robinson hit out
a single and stole second, going to
third on Luttrell's error and coming
home on Barry's wild heave. Al Lo
dell got transportation, went to sec
ond on a fielder's choice and trotted
home on a passed ball. From then
on there was a monotonous clanging
of the bell until the last. "Hap"'
Smith prevented a kalsomlne, when
he drove out the only big bit of tbe
day going to third on It and coming
home when King's timely drtve was
mussed up by Garrett Thla was In
the last of the ninth, Luttrell and
Harmon having previously filed out
and struck out respectively. Gar
rett has used his best and La Grande
should win the two remaining games.
The score yesterday:

HANKERS TO STRENGTHEN' TIIE1!.
' LINEUP AT ONCE.
! lrst Week of Amateur League Dis
closes Weaknesses 'to Fans.
Two gats-.os played In the Twilight
'ieasue has already disclosed the chief
units of the organization as It stands
r.d steps to remedy the weakness
have been taken. After the Palmer
mill team and the Bankers met earl
ier in the week, the Clerks and
Railroaders go' together later In the
week, giving (o the few fans who
went to the games a fair perusal of
the aspect o the four teams. That
t'ao Bankers are too weak to make
things Interesting is the chief com
plaint and the Bankers team knows
it and have gone about it to remedy
the fault. They will hart & new com
plexion when they are sent out again
to scrap for the Commercial club lov
ing cup that ha been set up.
Secretary Treasurer Claycombe and

nounced the definite schedule of tli?

night the Bankers meet the Railroad
ers.
