T- , The Archer-Wiggins team and the Tloneyman nine win play the, first game this -afternoon. This is the next to the last week of the indoor' season and close games are expected. The Eschles and Marshall-Wells teams will play the second game. There seems to have been a mistake made in making the schedule, as the . Marshall-Wells team has played . the second game for three ; successive weeks. , . " The Archer-Wiggins team has at last rounded, to form and Daugherty has a fins bunch of player, but they are too late to do much good. . - Lodell was back. Al looked fine after lay-off last Sunday, He connected with two safe drives. . . . . - What's' the matter ? ' Hughle McHale failed to get a binglo last Sunday. But he scored two times. This will put a crimp In Hughle's average.- ' Happy Weisendanger Is sure that he will make good in the eastern Oregon baseball league. ; " : Tauscher received . letter from John Bassey at Boise, and Bassey states that Boise could use the Spokane-Infielder next season.

Al Lodell will likely lose his chance to . make, - good in , the . . Northwestern league now that tho Victoria team has signed Lou Kordyke as manager. Nor dyke Is a great first baseman, - mads two base Uts In succession in the eighth inning- Sunday and they both scored, giving the M.-W. team its vio tory over the Honeyman team.

Feisel also made a good catch in the second Inning. , Hlnkle Is also away from the Eschles line-up for the rest of - the season. Ve galius failed to show the right form this season, but he may do better next season. , ' The Indoor games are attracting atten tion along the coast and a game may be played between the outdoor and the In door; stars after tho season closes. Henderson may .start against the Archer-Wiggins team and ' Morton will be kept on the sidelines today. '' Lincoln to Meet Jefferson. school - basketball squads will play Thursday afternoon on the T.

' At any rate, the rough house Hibernian wasn't taking chances. ; Pat was at home enough on the mat where there 4 was plenty of space r and with the secure knowledge that his dressing room would afford - territory enough to turn around in. " Now, Pat had traveled a bit but there la traveling, and plain, everyday "travelln'." This was a case where the "g" was missing but Connelly supplied was billed at points to the sunset side of Chicago, and his manager wasn't going to have his charge suffer Incon venience or humiliation. . No, sir! Pat was a perfectly, good wrestler, and "the beat in the house was none too good for Reilly." ; . When the manager- and Pat went through " the steel wicket at tho Rock Island station Pat Just naturally ex pected to climb Into a chair car, select a seat, and do his snoring with his shoes on, which was a whole lot better than wondering If the long toot of the locomotive whistle would bring an In quiring "shack" to .the. side door at the next stop. - "What th' divil s thlsr Pat Inquired with a suspicious sniff, as they wended their way into the Pullman -with the curtains hanging down like blankets pn a wash line.
