By good team work Stayton prevented any further runs and took her turn at the bat. Scio here showed some excellent team work and gave the home boys a complete shut out. In the third, the teams broke even, each adding a single score. Likewise the fourth was honors even, as neither team had a man who could circle the diamond. From this time on Scio failed to score. Not, however, because they did not play good ball, for they were really clever. But the Stayton boys were just a little more clever than the visitors, and played as one man, show ing the best team work the home ground has seen this season. In the 5th, Korinek annexed one more tally and Wolford did the same in the following inning. Stayton did not go to the bat the last half o f the ninth, and allowed the score to stand 5-2 in favor o f the local lads.
