The toys took the field with the
pangs of revenge gnawing at them.
The usual poor start was exhibited
when Umatilla scored nine runs in
four inning?. After that they were
held scoreless while the local boys did
their best to turn the tide. Boardman
scored seven runs so consequently the
game was lost. Carl Olson played the
best game of his high school career.
His batting and fielding were easily
the big features of the game. The

the season but the breaks were against
