two runs crossed the plate. The
last man fanned.

made sure that Butte Falls real
ized they were in a ball game by
pushing over three in the first
inning. Matson popped out, then
Spangler singled, stole second.
Westbrook walked and was driv
en in by Hanscams double. After
Desjardin fanned. Ackley drove
in Hanscam.
Butte Falls went ahead in the
top of the second on a wild pitch
after the first man walked and
three successive singles to score
three. Brookings, again show’ed
Butte Falls by going ahead, when
Nelson and Westbrook walked
advanced on a sacrifice, and scored
on on Spanglers second hit.
Butte Falls were blanked m
the third and fourth, while the
Pelicans added four more, never
to be seriously threatened again.
In the fifth, after two were
out, two walks and a two-base
hit gave Butte Falls a brace of
runs. Almost the same thing hap
pened in the sixth inning, after
two were out, a 2-base hit, and
three successive singles added a
pair more.
In the fifth and sixth Brook

ings added a run each inning, each
by home runs, one by Matson and
the other by Hanscam. In the
seventh after two were out, and
one had scored, Salvage replaced
Westbrook and put out the fire
without any ado. Brookings put
a pair more in their score column
that inning and three more in
the eighth.
