HOMAGE TO PENNANT GODS
Bears Make Three Good Meals of
Spuds Yesterday Game 5 to 2.
With the 1912 Western : Tri-State
League pennant," the firRt champion
ship flag ever won by a Walla Walla
team, floating: proudly over the park,
where It was raised before the game
with appropriate ceremony, the Bears
administered the third consecutive de
; feat to La Grande, again demonstrat
ing the champion calibre.
It was not too much Leonard end it
was not too little Fitchner that won
the came. It was simply the aggres
sive offense and the wonderful, spec-1
tacular defense of Manager cade s
machine.
After both teams had been photo
graphed in a semi-circle in' front of
the grandstand by a revolving camera,
the players formed two lines in V
shape from the flag pole on center
field fence, and Umpire Richardson
gallantly bore the pennant down the
field to the pole; assisted by three
little girls, the Misses Brown and
, ChildeW. .., . .-v ... -mmtm:
Prolonged cheering from the 800
fans present followed and arriving at
the pole, the flag was attached and
run up on the halyards, after which
the little girls pulled the string which
allowed its beautiful folds to waft
upon the breeze.. ', ;m ;' r
Then the game was off.'La Grande
' came near scoring in the first inning
Druhot walking with one down and
being advanced to third or Nadeau's
tit, but Corbin failed to deliver.
Harmon bowed to the flag in the
Bears half and promptly lifted the ball
over the left field fence, much to the
discomfort pf one Fitchner. The Pen
nant Gods realized then that they had

There was little doing then until the
fourth," when the Bears earned an
other run on Johnson's single and
Brown's sacrifice fly, Johnson steal
ing two bases meanwhile. : .
In the fifth the Spuds tied the score,
but the situation was not critical be
cause the locals could not be dented
victory on his occasion. Walters
opened the inning with a single, but
was forced out at second, on Fitchner's
grounder. The latter then stole sec
ond, took third on Martini's error of
Beck's fly.iand both men came in on
King's hit. .
The Bears : scored another, in the
sixth, Martini singling and Johnson
hitting for two bases. ' They got two
more in the eighth. Fitchner hit Mar
tini and Sheeley hit. Both advanced
on King's passed ball and scored on
Johnson's second two-bagger in the
game. ',...

Not for One Hundred Years Will One
Write Dates '13-13-Fri.
If any La Grande citizen got up
this morning with a peculiar forebod
ing that something unpleasant was
going to happen; if you had the bad
luck to get out bed this morning of
all mornings with your left foot first;
if you intended popping the question
to the lady of your dreams today be
ware. This is a bum day to start any
thing you want to have luck with, for
it's Friday the Thirteenth. .That isn't
such a rarity in itself, for there have
been numerous other Fridays the
Thirteenth in the past few years. This
Friday the Triteenth of today, how
ever, is peculiarly potent for evil in
its make-up. '
"" Today is the only day of the pres
ent year when the thirteenth of the
month will fall on a Friday. It will be
at least 100 years before you will get
the combination of Friday the Thir
teenth in the thirteenth year of a cen
tury, so when you write June 13-13 to
day, be careful to cross your fingers
to keep off "de conjuns."
