COMING HER
GAME TOMORROW TO BE OLD
RIVAL SORT.
Moose and Braves Have Game Sched
uled for Sunday Afternoon. .
It doesn't make any difference how
punk ball Elgin and La Grande put
up against anybody else, they are
always "there".' like big leaguers
wnen tney meet each other, and bas
ing the statement on past perform
ances of these two clubs, the game
. between Elgin, and La Grande in the
Branchline league next Sunday to
morrow should have every earmark
of : class 'AA ball.' Elgin has been
going some of late, and those who
saw the former game between these
two teams admit that both can play
some good ball against' each other.
The weaklings under Moose colors
last Sunday are not. coins: to repeat.
for stronger pitching and better in-
neiding is to be the rule tomorrow.
The Moose had a day off last Sunday
because half of the regular men
couldn't be here but tomorrow Mana
ger Moreiock promises to have a
much stronger team in the game and
will make Elgin run at top notch to
even keep in sight.
GIMLIN PHILOSOPHIZES.
Former Boise Helm Guider Balks at
Ogden Offer Too.
"Dad" Gimlhi Is not certain that he
wants to take the splumping Ogden
team in the Union association. : The
other day he drifted down to Ogden.
after quitting the Boise . Irrigators
and saw Salt Lake trounce Knight's
team terribly. ; Here .' is what "Dad"
had to say' afterwadr when told , he
was wanted to run the Ogden club:
"This town needs a ball club, not
a new manager," . said Gimlin after
he had seen Ogden play about three
innings. "If I were, to take this club
now it would merely be a' case of
transferring the goat from Knight to
me. Someone has got to be the goat
'With this club. I can see only a few
ball players in the whole outfit.' This
team is far 'outclassed and' the peo
ple here must -,- have : underestimated
the class of the lea ""6 when they
leathered v r "nu hear the
people roasting McCloskev because he
has such a club? They are roasting
Kitt because he hasn't Mil club,
I don't know anything about McClos
key's salary list. He is probably 'Un
der. But here is the thin" the" roast
you if you don't go and get a ball
club and get beaten and they also
roast you because you have a ball club
and are winning. Believe me, there
is only one system and that is to get
the ball club."

Baker Shut Out.
Pendleton, Ore., June 7. (Special)
Baker had an awful inning in the
third and seven runs, all that were
made in the game, registered in that
frame. Starkell went wild, filled the
bases and walked in two men. A hit
by McKune let in two more and then
he was yanked. Ward replacing him.
Then followed Baker's only errors by
Murphy and Harrod and three more
chased the plate. After that Ward
was invincible, allowing but two hits.
Dawson pitched shutout ball from the
first and was backed up strong.
Baker never had a man nast second.
Troeh, Baker's new catcher, worked
today and did not allow a stolen base,

Second Largest Stadium Built at Ber
lin for 1916 Olympic.
Berlin, June 7. With more than
20,000 German athletes participating
and approximately 40,000 spectators,
the new German stadium in which the
Olympic games will be held in 11UC,
will be formally opened and dedicat
ed tomorrow noon in the preserve of
Emperor William, the empress, rrown
prince and crown princess and the
kaiser's c6urt, as well as the entire
diplomatic corps.
It is the second largest stadium in
the world. , Its dedication marKj not
only an epoch in the history of ath
letics and outdoor sports in Germany,
but also in the revival of the ancient
Olympic games. It is also the open
ing event of the festivities celebrat
ing the kaiser's golden jubilee as rul
er of the German empire, the stadium
being built as a monument in honor
of his 25 years' reign of peace. It
cost over $500,000. The vast struc
ture is wholly of cement and is built
upon strictly classic Greek linen.
Marching 20 abreats, 20,000 men,
representing the flower of the Ger
man . athletic societies, will pass
through the beautiful court of honor
and march in front of the kaiser and
his royal guests in the imperial box.
General von Podbielski, minister of
agriculture, as president of the Na
tional Olympic committee of Germany
will make an address outlining the
purpose of the stadium. As he calls
for a "Hoch der Kaiser" 10,000 car
rier pigeons will be simultaneously
released at one end of the stdium
carrying copies of Podbielski's ad
dress to every part of Germany.
As the great flock of carrier pig
eons circle about to get their bearings
for their home cotes, several aero
planes and a Zeppelin will also be
sweeping over the stadium.
Tomorrow's events in the stadium
will be principally of a spectacular
type and to please the kaiser, will
have a strong military taste. Among
other events will be n wall scaling
contest by companies of infantry from
the Garde Corps. These troops will
appear for the fisrt time in the new
unomnmented "field gray" uniforms
recently adopted by the German army.
Club swinging, fopt racing, turning
und a football match for the crown
prince cup which decides the cham
pionship of Germany, are on the pro
gram. From the moment that it was de
cided Berlin would have the 191P
Olympic games, the Germans started
to train for the event and to build a
stadium second to none.

BASEBALL GOSSIP
The first games of the Wallowa
County Baseball League, the new
league, were played last Sunday, and
Lostine won the games at Wallowa.
By the launching of the new league,
Wallowa will have a ball game every
Sunday during the rest of the season,
the new league team playing on Sun
days that the Branchline leatrue team
is away from home. Next Sunday
Alder plays in Wallowa.
A telegram has just been received
by Manager Marvin of Wallowa from
Ben Culver, the crack O. A. C. pitcher,
stating that he would be in Wallowa
the latter part of the week and would
pitch against Enterprise tomorrow.
o
Here is the summary for the pne hit
game Fitchner pitched against Yaki
ma: Two base hits Fitchner. Sac
rifice hits Peterson, 2; Druhot, Con
roy. Stolen bases Beck, 2; Fitchner
2. Struck-out By Fichner 4; by Gor
don 5. Bases on balls Off Fitchner,
3; off Gordon, 2. Double plays Na
deau.to Corbin; Groves to Stanley to
Jansen to Engel to Jansen to Engel
First on errors La Grande 3; North
Yakima 1. Hit by pitcher Taylor
twice by Fitchner.
Alleging that bystanders had in
sulted his wife in the dancing pavilion
at Sumack park last night, Fitchner,
the La Grande pitcher who held the
Yakima Braves to one hit yesterday
afternoon, started in to "clean up"
two youths whom he deemed guilty.
A call to the sheriff's office brought
Deputy Sheriff Frank Fulmer, who
took the baseball star to the county
jail. He was released on bail about
midnight last night. Yakima Herald.
"Shorty" Roben, Baker's star right
fielder, who has more assists and put
outs to his credit than any fielder
in the league, returned to Baker last
evening, and will remain until the
Gold Diggers arrive. Shorty is still
nursing a bad thumb, as the resut of
coming in contact with Ford's shin
when he attempted to tag him out
at second.
Harrod is proving himself the best
of the Gold Digsrers with the club. He
has made six hits in eleven time at
bat during the three games. His
work at third, too, compares well with
that of any other third sacker in the
league. Pendleton E. O.
o I
When Augustus gets back into the
game he will probably take up duty
at the third sack and Rader will re
main at short His ankle will be weak
and he will not be required to cover
as much territorv at third. Inci
dentally he has always been a third
hnseman except nt Pendleton and
Vancouver while Rader's oFd position
is short.
o
Paker has a team of few svllables.
With the exception of Starkell and
Coleman, the names of the Gold Dig
gers are short and erisn. For instance
there is Rock. Ward. West. Dean.
Post, Cress. Sells. Woods, and Krause.
fTl of the monosvllabic variety.
Makes it pretty soft for the scorer.
It is certainly a pleasure to watch
a real umpire work, remarks a Pendle
ton scribe. Hall is nroddino- the play
ers f i;ora start to finish and makes
the game proceed rapidly. "Batter
up, next man half way. Little pepper
there," and the fans applaud. Mora
over, with him there is no crabbing.
Not a cheep f"om the players in three
games.
