Yrekas Hard1 fitters - - Street, who started in the box for Klamath Falls, felt the warning of an impending team of sluggers, when O. Dlnkln. the first man up. got a two-bagger. Hlbbard followed wfthf a single, scoring Dinkin. Rbotrey was safe on an error by N5rwesL"'ShelIhamer struck 'out. Grlse got', a Texas leagner, bring ing'Rdaney' In,' Mathewso'n struck out. Before- .the " Pelicans could realise what had' happened the Trckans had run up a two-run lead. The weather-was torrid. It couldn't haYa. beeg. .better for a pitcher's arm. But evidently Street was not In condition.1' The first man who faced him in the second was given a' free ticket. " Street retired here in Iffvor of "Sunny" Mohler. ' Mohler starled like a. house afire, and man aged to giet by until the fifth, when jtha fighting Yrekas climbed on him for a total of five hitr. which netted Iwo f more runs. . Bannister, who Ailed in .for Mickey Demitt behind the plate for the Pelicans, played a terrible game. A passed ball by him advanoed two runners. ' It was afsmbbther" machine when Glover, inrTthe. first -of the seventh, yanked Bannister and replaced him with the crippled' Demitt The. whole morale of tht team seemed- to change. A doubIeSIay in the seventh spoiled good Pelican chance to score. :j But the real thriller of the game came in the last of .the ninth when the Pelican's pulled up five runs in Sie rear. Bayness, the first man p' was called out. on what should ljavo. been a ball. Undaunted, the IVUgans- took up where Bayness left off. , Norwest got a long hit out In left, .field that was good for two bags. That was what started the Pelicans' on their rampage. Nor west; however, ' took too big a lead ami was caught flat-footed for the second , out. Yet undaunted the Pelicans took up where Bayness and Norwest left off. Mathews socked a single into centerfleld. Clark fol lowed with a hot one to short, which Was" good for a safety. Mathews Facing to' third". Doc Noel smacked oyt a pretty two-bagger Into left field,-and Mathews romped home for-the only.Polican tally of the game. Clark went to third on the hit. Mickey Demitt-had visions of bringing in at least a couple of runs with a hit, but Mickey and the Pell- cans were aoomeo. Ho smacked a roller down to the pitcher and was thrown out at Tirsf for the final but. ., ' N . j . jne rencans were every bit as good a team- as the Yrekas. In fact the Pelicans are second to none on the face of the first two games of the season. It was Just one of those games that had to be lost. They outhlt the Yrekas 10 to The re) leans played erratically In spots, but that Is true of the best of ball teams. fyreka AB. R. H. PO. A. E. D. Dlnklns, 2b 4 2 Hllbard, tf.

The Brooklyn Dodgers were happy enough over the results of their experience with western teams during the recent invasion of the east by clubs; from the left side of the Alleghanles. The Dodgers won 11 cut of Iff games and only three of Ihe victories ' were turned in by Daszy Vance and Burleigh Grimes, their star pitchers.- who also were charged with four of the Ave defeats. To Uncle Wll bert Robinson's athletes this meant that they could win at a- .660 rate even without the stars. There seems td be no threat to the- Giants who outclass the Na tional league thus tar but the Ath letics, leaders of the American league are In trouble now that Pelican Squawks It did the IVIh-ans good la tante defeat.
