o Heppner, Ore., Gazette-Times, Thursday, June 20, 1974 Indians keav G ton is, 7-6 In a seesaw battle that went into two extra Innings Monday night, the Morrow County Grain Growers' Indians sneaked by the Kinzua Giants 7 6 in the 7th inning. The Indians had jumped off to an early lead gathering three runs in the first and two in Hie second while the Giants could only push across one in the first. Cosily errors by the Indians from lone let the Heppner based Giants take five runs from them in the 3rd and 4th while they stood helpless at the plate. In a last chance effort to end the game in regular innings the Indians pulled one run around the bases to tie it up but were thwarted in ending the game at the 5 inning mark. Over TSia Tee Cqi K & I, This is Ladies' Week in the Tee Cup we have been and will he busy. Also, gentlemen, we've been getting more news about the Willow Creek ladies. Let us hear what you've been doing on the course; our readers would like to know. Twelve women participated in the last Ladies' Day. In a silent three-some competition, thr team of Jo Stein, Lois Hunt and Juanita Carmidiael posted the low net score to win the honors. Don't forget the Eclecta. You have one week left to post improvements in your game and we all are improving, aren't we? April 12 a dozen women went to Hoardman for an enjoyable day. We understand that the Willow Hun ladies do a great job of entertaining guests. Bringing home prizes lor the day were Hev Gun derson, with her fine low gross score of 35 (and the KP honor), Ixis Hunt with low net, and Monica Jones, long drive. "Anonymous" has been unmasked at last ! Our June calendar will be rounded out with a visitation from the Condon and Kinzua clubs here the 23rd and a family barbecue the same day. Tee-off time for the visitation is 9:00; play for the barbecue will begin at 4:00. Make a note of this date and the times and plan to attend. A request from the ladies would anyone who has clubs stored in the clubhouse please remove them? Our space is limited at best, and a cluster of golf bags takes up a lot of needed room, plus causing the gals who are trying to clean the clubhouse to mutter un ladylike phrases. We hope to have a storage area at the course some day; until then, please take your clubs home with you. Everyone will appreciate it.

In the seventh the Indians shot across the run after some tricky baserunning put a man in scoring position. In the last chance atiempt for the Giants they put a man in scoring position but he was retired trying to steal third making the third and final putout. The game was close in all aspects as each team got six hits in the action. For the Indians on the mound it was Martin, Stefani, and Thomp son, with Stefani gaining the nod.
