The base ball game Friday, be
tween the Bohemia team of this
city and the Rambler team of Eu
gene, was an exciting game from
start to finish. The Eugene team
'ml, - - - wv .V- imt"
won by a score of r5 to 17. It was
the first match game played by
either team this season. Doth
nines are in need of practice as
they are capable of playing much
better ball than was witnessed here
Friday. A return game will be
played at Eugene Sunday. The
Bohemia team will be greatly
strengthened in this game by the
addition of two or three new men.
The following was" the line-up of
the two nines.
