The second game of the season resulted just as diasterously for M oro as did the first. M oro trav eled to Grass Valley with all the confidence in the world and then some, and it might be said this over-load of confidence was their own undoing. M oro began to hit and field in topnotch order and after they had taken their turn at bat in the 4th inning the score was six to one, ordinarilly a lead-pipe cinch, but when Grasstown had finished their turn; or, more properly, their turn and a half; M o ro ’s five run lead was overcome and the boys in the new suits were four to the go o d ., From hereon M oro was outplayed to a finish of fifteen to eight. M oro appreciates G ran Valleys calibre, but our boys declare that when they once hit their stride the edge of the season’s play will be brought home, no more to roam. The next game will be Sunday on the home lot. with that scrap py Dufur bunch. Tw o years ago these same two teams played a hotly contested seven inning tie, being interrupted by a hail storm. Last Sunday Dufur beat The Dalles by a score of six to eight. It you have a news item, tell it to the Observer. D o n ’t imagiae we know it and then wonder why it is not in the paper ’phone it in.
