' TI13 story of "The Love Mask" has to do with the adventures of Kate Kenncr, who, owing to the death of her parents, is forced to earn her liv ine; by punning gold. It is a Para mount picture.

Guy Patton, premier first baseman ' on the Elgin team since mind of many I a man runneth not to the contrary, ' yesterday stepped into the breech i left by young Mlumenstein's bad arm, and attempted heroically to guide the Elgin Indians to victory. His career 1 was stormy and he failed in his pur-' pose but not entirely through any fault of h'is with the little midiret i out of the box the Klginites left their ' Knownow m Klgin and brought but i empty husks to La Grande with them, 1 and, while the error column over-! flowed and was abandoned leaving no accurate account, a continuous stream of bungles got Patton so far to -wen he was unable to find a haven. Blue menstein played the field, and may not be able to pitch for some- little time, but that won't be so disastrous to El gin If she will buckle up and support the first baseman. As for La Grande, she should have won. It was in the cards to win. Her lineup was by far the strongest of any she has acquired to date, and though she loosened toward the last, the nine went rambling right along in line form as long as there was any thing to stimulate good playing. With her lineup as yesterday and with Manager Melnnis in the form he was yesterday she would hold her own against a powerful combination. It was not until well into the third inning that anybody scored a clean hit off Patton Mescrve broke the ice with a clean three-bagger. McLain poled out a three-base swat in the fifth off Patton, but some claimed this to bs foul. .Well scattered singles up to four or five besides these extra base swats were registered off the vis itors, but none were bunch and with strong support La Giande would have been pushed hard to win. The Elgin batters were unable to cluster hits except in the first when Patton singled and Mason scored him with a three-bagger. Elgin scored her second run in the fourth largely through errors, and in the sixth Bickle went for a round trip. She scored again in the seventh and eight. Mean-while La Grande had cleaned nine. Matched up with previous games this year the game was not a stand aid production and the La Granders were disappointed at not seeing Blue- nienstem on the hill tor with mm there the oldtime Elgin people would have been running wild no doubt. By her victory, La Grande forged to the front in the league, and shunt ed Elgin into second place with Imbler.

Due to the heavy rain yesterday morning, the Cove-Imbler game at Cove was postponed. New York, June 1'.). Nick Altrock and Germany Schaffer, comedy king pins of the coaching box, have kissed their crowns good-bye. Carl Sawyer, u vouno- miuvfrom Des Moines, la., now warming the Senators bench and waiting for a chance to horn in at sec ond base, has copped their glory. Sawyer rambled onto the third base line in the opening game at the Polo Grounds and in a minute was the new pet of 20.000 fans. He literally held up the game Ar a time because Caldwell, the big Yankee pitcher could not work from laughing at his antics. And when Tom Connelly, umpire, told him to cut it out, he turned his back and told Tom more things by wiggling his shoulder than .lawn Evers could say in a week. Sawyer performs somersaults that presage a broken neck but always comes up smiling. He can imitate a horse to perfection and when he attaches long slips of paper to his ear and turns his horse to a mule the game stops. Sawyer will stick whether he plays second or not.
