will piny the Condon nine on the local
field next Sunday. The season up to

pitching staff where Heppner has been
weak all season. L. K Harlan of

cals next Sunday and if this spit ball

of hits. Hdppner line ud for Sunday :

Bdhrens, First; Crawford, Short stop ;
Elliot, Second; Hiatt, Third; Riot
man, rightfield; Hula Center; Yea
ger, L3ft field.
