OF THE SEASON, SCORE 8 TO 4
A fairly good crowd turned out to the
first game of the season for the Stay-
ton bail team on Sunday, April 25.
The grounds were in good shape and
the weather was perfect for u good
game, which was played, a» the follow
ing will attest.
Mayor Beaucnamp delivered the first
ball, which by the way was a strike,
and was handled like a veteran b y
John Mielke behind the bat.
In the first half Lincoln drew three
zeros and Stayton got one good one on
hits by Thoma and Klecker.

and Stayton was shut out by the visit

In the third frame the locals returned
the compliment by giving the boys from
Lincoln three goose eggs, while Stay-

Cole and Thoma.
The visitors drew blanks again in the

bunching the hits of Robertson, Miller
and Rock.
The fifth was equally unfortunate for
the visitors and the Stayton boys failed
to connect with the ball also, leaving
the score one to three.
In the sixth frame Lincoln got one
on hits by Price and Walling, and the
Stayton aggregation were presented
by three scores on hits by Klecker,
Miller and Rock with a sacrifice by
Smith.
