Langlois Swamped
By Bruins, Friday MOTHER’S DAY . . . .
Lige their neighbor, Port Or
ford, Langlois Panthers were
swamped last Friday by Brook
ings title-hungry Bruins who put
out the base hits and ran up a
25 to 1 score. Wildness on the

The case at Port Orford, played
an important part in the devas
tating results.
Coach Guthrie was heard to
remark: “The Bruins are good
—but not as good as that score
would indicates, or were the hosts
as bad as the score would make
you bt ^eve. This is the first time
in the history of Brookings that
a formidable baseball team has
been fielded.”
