The locals showed real flash in their work on the bases and in the fielding and nipped an? hopes that the boys of Uncle Sam might have had of annexing the contest. The catching of Spidell, former Pacific Junction high school star was one of the outstanding features of the game and his fast and peppy game back of the plate inspired his teammates in their work and the local line up was strengthened by the addition of Ed Gradoville at first and who in his usual hardworking efforts made the work of victory for the lo cals easier and with his stick figured the runs able to check up In the last of the first inning Plattsmouth scored their first run when Art Klauschie was given first when his grounder to third base was juggled and Art tallied when Grado ville doubled to deep center and gave the locals the start to victory. Again in thethird stanza of the game the Platters started to do things to the soldiers when Spidell and Gradoville were both safe on short hits and were able to score from third and second when John Svoboda singled to center. The seventh inning saw the visi tors threatening to break the shut out when they were able to place a runner on third and second base and on a slow grounder to short the at tempt to score was made, Newman attempted to throw the batter out at first but the toss was wide and the man was safe but Gradoville with a fast return of the ball to Spidell at the plate nailed the runner who was racing in an attempt to score, removing the last serious effort of the soldiers to score. In the last of the seventh the lo cals added another run for good measure when Swanson hit a slow grounder to short that was thrown poorly to the first baseman and who juggled the ball and allowed the Plattsmouth hurler to be safe on the sack. Swanson, was at second when Spidell hit a smashing double to center on which Swanny came home with the fourth score of the game. The pitching of Swanson for Platts mouth was excellent and he was able to hold the visitors from becomii.g dangerous at any stage of the game and checked all attempt at a batting rally in the closing innings of the struggle. The locals had a fast field ing game to their credit and Reichart, Newman, Klauschie and Gradoville made a real combination on the in field which with the air tight ball played by Spidell behind the bat made the chance of the invaders very small.
