Y. M. C. A. vs Valentine
The Y. M. C. A. aggregation of
sphere tossers met the horse hide
chasers from Valentine , Crawford ,
Gordon and various other noted
cities last Monday afternoon on
the Y. M. C. A. campus.
When the game began , a man
wearing a Crawford brand was in
the box. At the end of the first
inning , it looked as though he was
going tcrmake the Y. M. C. A.
bunch go some. The score stood
2 to 0 in favor of Valentine.
However , Gorrell started in to
do things to the mixture in the
second inning and when the smoke
had rolled away and thp. final roll
called it was found that Valentine
had not done a thing , while Chadron
had corralled one lone score.
Gorrell serjt them to the bench
in one , two , three order in the
third while Chadron landed harden
on Moss for four scores.
Beginning with the fourth inn
ing Moss took a back seat on
second base and Carter from some
where attempted to toss the sphere
in such a manner as to bring terror
into the cam ] ) of the Chadronites.
However , the boys found him for
one score. The remainder of the
game was close except the eighth
inning when Chadron added five
large juicy scores to the already
good mnjority.
Final score , Chadron 12 , Valen
tine 3. Batteries : Valentine , Moss
and B. Carter ; Blaster and Fisher ;
Chadron , Gorrell and Sprague.

On account of the rain life *
double header that was to have
been played here last Saturday
between the Valentine team and
the Gordon high school had to be
postponed. The Valentine team
went to Crawford and played the
Crawford team Sunday and were
beaten by a score of 6 to 5. Mon
day they played Chadron and were
again beaten by a score of 11 to 3.
Tuesday they played the High
School here and were beaten by a
score of 12 to 9. It was a very
interesting game from start to
finish alt.ho some very poor plays
were made on both sides. The
game was played very quietly and
but for one exception there was
no fussing. Valentine's first base
man got sore because of a certain
decision of the umpire but did
nothing but chew the rag a little ,
when the umpire told him to quiet
down which he immediately did.
During the first part of the game
Valentine's center fielder got hit
in the eye with a long fly and had
to leave the diamond and before
the end of the game his eye was
swelled shut. The Gordon Jour
