Echoes from the
Side Lines.

riors of the thriving town of
Clem had to surrender in the
ninth canto to the Condon Grays
before a yelling, shouting crowd
of enthusiastic fans who braved
dust and breeze to see the splen
did finish of the matinee pulled
off at the local grounds Sunday
afternoon. Final Bcore 7 to 9.
Clem had come prepared for
battle and a number of recruits
had been sworn in by both teams
to give spice and ginger to the
afternoon's sport. The visitors
put up a much speedier article
of ball than two weeks ago and
had they shown a little better
judgment at critical times, the
tale of the contest would
have had a happier ending.
In the seventh inning the Grays
found the Clem pitcher for four
costly hit that brought the
victory to the locals.
