the, ninth; Inning; th? korf Stood 5
to Ct- In'tho tenth, tho Alco team of
Albany scored a beautiful run, and
the game closed with the final score
of C toG.
Hardly had tho preliminary feat
ures of tho day been executed when
tho big formal ovent, tho parade
was ready. Never has a finer pagent
passed through the streets of Sa
lem. Promptly at 1:30 the proces
sion formed In Marlon square, and
at 2:00 o'clock It was passing In re
view of the admiring thousands.
Tho Gibson Girls! Is It possible
that nnybody missed them? Fifty
beauftiful young ladles on horsebnek
lead by Salem's Invincible chief; It
was sight never to be forgotten,
the feature of the parade, and a
spectacle, the like of which has
never boen Been In .the Cherry City.
Then came the long looked-fori
and hitherto mystcrlouB Cherryl
King, mounted upon one of the mon !
gorgeous of floau, and the question j
that has been on tho Hps of every i
Salemlte for the past week was I
answered. The king Is C. L. Starr,
of the state board of normal BchooJ
regents, manager of the famous Cap
itol, tearu of the Salem Twilight
league, popular citizen, baseball fan
and booster in general.
Tho Salem . Military band never
appeared to bettor advantage. The
15 musicians under the direction of
Tex Stoudenmeyer were trained to
the minute, and it was no wonder
that the 50 fiery steeds of the Gib
son Girls nranced to the music of
tbo band.
Tho High school float was one of
tbe good things of the parade, and
It reflected a great deal of credit
upon the students who constructed
Jt. The big wagon was decorated In
the colors of the school, and also In i
the Cherry Fdlr colors. AH the ac
tlvltle3 of the high school were rep-i
resented; such as baseball football. ,
tennis, basketball, etc. In the cen-'
ter of tbe float was a huge coffin'
labeled "Our Rivals." This was one
of the big hits or the parade.
More decorated automobiles, bug
gies, and carriages were in line than
