Fans were treated to two thrilling ball games here last Sunday when Magrath gained a measure of revenge for their previous defeat by turning the Del Bonita Cubs back twice by identical scores of 6-5. Crowd reaction showed that the large turn-out of fans were well satisfied, with the snappy ball displayed. The Cubs grabbed early lead in both features, but were unable to hold the determined Magrath boys. Russel Rice came through splendidly, . when he smuggled in the tying and winning runs in the first game. Alston, in outer field for Magrath, came through with 2 spectacular running c&tches in the evening game. The "Cubs" again showed that they are a very good ball club’, Magratl^s play was much nearer the high calibre ofT*1 they are capable. W. Rice and W. Ripley formed an infield combination which performed spectacularly, especially in the evening game. Fans are advised to watch for the * dates of the BIG BASEBALL TOURNAMENT to be ' held in Magrath early in September. --- J.E.B. ‘ AT THE PARK THEATRE: FRI. & SAT.
