LYNCH JUMPS TO FLYING START Butte, Chambers and 0 * Neill Also Win 2d Half Openers LYNCH — This daffy base ball town turned out en masse Sunday to watch the Lynch Sowei house bury West O Neill 1-3 in the first game of the second-half of Holt Boyd coun ty league play. The Lynch club, regarded as the team to beat in the circuit, also turned in some fancy baseball in depart ments other than the batting box as three double-plays were executed. A large crowd was on hand, but the Westerners, who have the reputation of being good hitters even though they’ve won only one, couldn’t match Lynch’s heavy hitting. LYNCH (107 AB R H A.
