Marshfield was an easy victor over
North Bend on the Marshfield
grounds yesterday, the score being 7
to 2. The Victorv wns oven nnotn..
than the score indicates; the North
Bend team being badly shot to pieces
and Marshfield winning without
much effort. In consequence, the
game was rather listless from the
spectator's standpoint, only a few
plays 'arousing much enthusiasm. The
only fan who got real pleasure out
of the game was a Bandon man In
the grandstand who "rooted" mere
ly to givo expression to, his enthu
siasm for baseball in general and not
because he was interested in any
player or either team. In fact, the
Bandon youth's rooting, some of
which was quite clever, afforded more
entertainment to tho grandstand
than did the game,
Manion, North Bend's first base
man, made several of Marshfleld's
scores easy ones. Ho got so inter
ested in protests tfiat he was going
to explain to the umpire that two or
three ran in while he was holding
the ball. He was caught napping
twice in the same way.
Kelly, North Bend's third bnso
man, played most of the game for
North Bend. He landed for two
baggers, one of which went far over
the score board and fence and would
undoubtedly have been good for
three bags or more had it not heen
for the ground rules. Flanagan
caught a good game for North Bend.
Taylor was fairly easy for Marsh
field. McKeown made the stellar play for
Marshfield. A long drive over sec

HicKey sprinted and Jumped and

He was practically up against the

D. D. Campbell Says That Pre
sent Plan of Construction
Infringes On Him.
D. D. Campbell, owner of the lot
on the waterfront north of 'X' street,
has filed a protest with tho city clerk
against the plans for the ferry slip,
now being constructed at the end of
'X' street. L. A. Liljeqvlst, Mr.
Campbell's attorney, In the protest
declares that the present plans of the
city transgresses on Mr. Campbell's
property rights. Mr. Campbell does
not protest against the ferry, merely
against the manner of construction.
He says that the ferry does not
enter at a right angle to Front street
and this results In leaving twenty
two feet of sidewalk on tho south
side of the slip along the Sheridan
property while there Is only two feet
along the Campbell lot. x In addition
to this, he says that the lines on
which the city engineer proposes to
open 'X' street to the water's edge Is
not In conformity with the original
survey when the property was laid
out thirty years ago and will cut
seven feet off the corner of his lot.
Unless the city council adjusts the
matter at once, Mr. Campbell expects
to begin injunctlno proceedings.
