Rupert Scored Ten in

Some Very Fast Ball was Played

A complete surprise was sprung on | Prince Rupert on Sunday afternoon = when the All Star Team of the Interior @ <efented the All Star Team of Prince ” Rupert by a score of 3 to 0.

The weather was good and the dia-

mond had bets. put in’ really fine xbape for this ‘series of two games. There was a big crowd there and that wrowd got the worth of their money.

For quite a time there has been a few who considered the boys in the interior did net play good enough ‘ball nuuL that it was always good to use as many outside ‘players as possible in order to teach the local youngsters. On Sunday the interlor players bit wore halls, made fewer errors and on the -field were just as snappy as the visitots. It is said that the visitors did not bring the best of their players. That was too bid for them, and it is sife to say the next time the teams meet the visitors will have. all their hest players.

Kershaw, the new pitcher for the Snappy Nines, and high school teacher in Sinithers, was in the box for the

interlor team, and from the start he

‘had the visitors eating out of his mit. ' Ile pitched a wonderful game. and he

ix either a big: league pitcher or he has}

"the faculty’ or fooling the ‘umpire ‘as’ well as the batter. ‘The visitors wera

not at all satisfied with his decisions |

on strikes and balis, in fact very few balls .were called on Kershaw. Good- sere was behind the bat and he allow- ed only one bal! to pass him. He did a great job and was a tower of support to the pitcher. ‘The next player who ’ did big stuff was Oakley Senkpiel at first base. He had numerous put-outs to his own eredit and he caught every- thing that came within reach. He got a three base hit, the biggest of the day in the second inning and went home on a bad throw to third, At that he nade a couple of ‘errors, but they dic: ’ ot have serious results, Tnfortunate- — ly he was laid out hy a houneing bat fownrds the end of the game while the hoys were practicing between innings. He was ‘repliced by Muirhead. who played his position well. , Muirhead was in the game all-day and grabbed nul opportunities.

‘rhe interfor outfield had very little ta do, Cliff Warner got one ‘chance at n fly and he caught: ft, but anything else that went fo’ the outfield were rallers ov fouls.

For the visitors Chenoske pitched 2 oud game, but if was appurent he was

not feeling at Lome. He ald not show the snap in fielding balls thnt one would expect. Alex, Mitchell behind the bat was a tower of strength, and he has a splendid per te second which. he orked . successfully several times, ‘he second baseman, short stop and third baseman were all good and pul up a fine game, especially considering ‘hey were on strange grounds that were quite different from the Rupert zrounds. None of the Rupert boys ay penred. to be heavy on the bat, or else. Tershaw'a slaw’ ‘avop fooled them very Imdly: jPerhaps they .under- estlnated the interior players o ‘little BH.

It was a wonderful game and no on: had it won -until the elghth inning when Chenoske went somewhat out of control and started off by hitting 0. Spooner on the head. © Lewis hit to the pitcher who caught Spooner at the second sack. Muirhead then hit to the pitcher who dropped the bal! ani Lewis made second. Bert Spooner was then up and he. hit.a fast groundey to 3rd and it went on through and Lewis scored, Muirhead got to second and on to third when Arnold struck out. The next man np, Leach, got a walk and nli bases were filled and Muirhead had h walk home making the third run for the interior. Bases all.full yet. Ker- shaw at bat.. He had usualy hit safe but that time he hit an. easy one te the pitcher who got Bert Spooner ran. ning home, but Kershaw was auton feally out’ anyway

In thefr ninth inning the Runert bors got men on bases but Bury was put in to try and. save the game. but he was entled aut on strikes ~ Two or three times Rupert got men on second and first bases, but they did ‘not have a batter to bring them home Once they got a man on third base bm “he died there,

Monday’s Game

With practicnlly the same line up, hut with some changes in the position of the ‘players, the- Prince Rupert all staly boll: feim” ‘staged “a rent come back ats Smithers ou Monday afternoon. While on Sunday the visitors had quite W number of errors ¢halked against them, they played. nit tight ball on Monday aud gave an exhibition thi the fans thoroughly enjoyed.

The score was ten to four in favor of the visitors, but the seore is not an indication of the pliy by any .means. Up toe the fourth inning the score Was me nothing in favor of the Interior all stur team. Butearly fii the fourth inning a fly went out ta Ward Marshell in lett field, Te cnught it, but drop- ped it agit. ‘Spooner had already let’ {wo met to fest on balls and there was n hit or two, and. then, the whole teain xcemed fo go Info. the air, - Players not guilty often of had judgment pull- ed, boners of the worst kind. The Ru-

pert players fot their break and they j.

were tuking ‘fall advantige of it. Ten |

runs were connted up before.the third |,

Beit Spooner was in the box for the Interior. term, and he pitched: perfect hall the first three innings, but. he got had in the fourth and jinssed’ men in fn row. But in the Sth inning he was ‘back to his old form, again, and. thé visitors got no moré runs, ‘and oniy got to third base. once or twice. “The visit. ors hit. ‘Spooner’ more than: they, aid

Kershaw on Sunday, but not many of

the bits were bad, and the team was

on its toes behind him, He stayed the full nine. innings and held control. -

.Claretice Goodacre . was behind ‘the Dat. and he played -another. sterling game. ‘He only. made a mistuke imi the. fourth when everyone clse was ‘in the air. In the 7th inning he, was injured and.hnad. to retire from the game. He waa. replaced by Muirhead who bad been playing in. right field. Kerghaty went to right fleld and did some very first base was in the game-again after his injury

{on Sunday and he was just os good as

ever, and Harold Lewis n€ short. was a wonder on those short outfield flies. He cavight a lot of.them himself and backed up every other player.’ Omer ‘Spooner at third played a good game except in the fourth when all went bad Oliff Warner in centre field got his one long fly, and the Munday fly was a ist barder to get.. Tle rest of the balls he fielded were all ‘grounders.

As a team they played good ball and the score would indicate that they had fust a little edge. on the Rupert boys. They scored one in the first, ane In the fifth and two in the 9th.

For Prince Rupert Bill Lambe was in the box and he had his ovn catcher Nelson. Lambe struek out a lot of the batters and. it seemed harder for the boys to get next to him than it was to hit Chenoske on Sunday. Nelson was strong behind the bat and this battery got fine support from sexond base, the short stop and third baseman. Cheno- aske at third made a wonderful one hand catch. Bert Spooner drove a hot liner between short and third that was ‘absvlutely safe for two or three bags, but Chenoske was too tall and too iong fn the reach. He grabbed it and fired it ‘to. first like a streak to get it out uf his . mit. and stop a fire. The Prince

Editor Omineca Herald, H New Hazelton, B.C.

Sir:—I notice that in your issue of: the 13th you state that I-am contest-! ing ‘the forthcoming election as the: Conservative ‘candidate. .

I wish. to inform you that you have been either misinformed-or misunder- stand the issue, as far as I am con- cerned, in the approaching contest.

It {s a fact, that two years ago, I was nominated as the Conservative candidate in’ Skeena riding. Since then the executive.of the B. ©. Conser- vative. Association decided that. the Conservatives of B. Cc. ‘would not; a8 an Ok gnitzatton~ tikes my- Dane as A body in the forth coming. election. : was therefore automatically veleuved as the Conservative candidate, and am ‘now at liberty, if I decide, to enter the contest, to support those principles which I consider will be-in the best interests of the province in general and the Skeena riding in particular.
