No. 47 ' ( ' JULES1IUUG WINS ON ' RUNS NOT HARNEI) About four hundred ball fans wlt nossed North Platte go dowiu to de feat Sunday nftomoon at tho hands of Julosburg, the visitors taking the long end of tho throe to two score. Npno of tho throe runs made by Julosburg wore earned; they were the result of errors on tho part of the local play ers Tho North Platte team scored In the first and seventh Innings, In the first through a hit by Lnngford, and In tho' seventh by a two-saclter by Gutnmcre and a similarly long drive by Langford. Tho visitors rounded the frame onco In tho sixth and twice in the ninth inning. The game was really a pitchers battle, Fussel for Julesburg striking out eighteen men and Ellers having sovonteen strike outs to his credit. Each of the two men had an Inning when only ten balls wore thrown in retiring three men. which Is certainly dropping them off pretty fast. Five of North Platte's team arp what might bo called Inexperienced mon, tho other four are old timers, but as a whole they play good ball, and though thoy threw away Sunday's game bet ter playing will come with more ex perience. ::n:: - Friday was a red letter day for the Nolan family, for, aside from a family reunion It was tho first time that tho six brothers had gotten together since their release from service.
