a surprise to the Ogden Og-den formation It will be recalled that I borne time incc the Ogden team defeated 1 de-feated the Rio Griiijdcs In an exhibition exhibi-tion game at Ogden and the Ogden comment on the games played by the Ro Grande here last week with Poca wile was to the effect that the Rio Grandes played very slow ball It all goes to show that to orr Is I human Both teams engaged in the struggle yesterday put up a lino game however how-ever and a prettier contest so early In the season could not be asked for OGDEN SEEMED STRONG It was the first chance the local followers fol-lowers of the port have had to seethe see-the Ogdens work this year and the strangers from up the line made a most fa arable Impression the unanimous unani-mous opinion of those who saw the gamu being that the Ogdens would give somebody a chase this year The new men In the field this year proved themselves to be especially valuable acquisitions Clark Ogdens new third baseman a graduate of the Callfor nlp league was easily the feature of the game Out of eight chances he handled eight chances cleanly some of them being especially difficult ones Throe times he fumbled hard hits and I ran them down In time to throw the runners out at first Once a hit ball got away from him and rolled almost to the pitchers box before he got it but he sent it like a cannon ball to Bluth who murmured a silent prayer and let it smash Into his mitt where it stuck Everyone In the grand stand was puzzled to learn where Clark got the inflammatory hosiery he wore They wore pink and black and looked as if they might have at one time belonged 1 be-longed to some one of the opposite persuasion perhaps they do yet It Is hoped that Clark will not wear them during Sunday games Sabbath breakIng break-Ing should not be encouraged ILANSFORD HAS CHANGED TIansford stood at the sending end of the Ogden shoots and pitched a fine I game Ills support got a rifle 1 ragged rag-ged at times four errors being made I behind him in the sixth inning Ho seems to have abandoned the windmill style of pitching he alTected so much last year and is giving more attention atten-tion to pace The result Is a great Improvement Im-provement In his effectiveness Flake who was with Ogden once in former years played short and fell down on only one of his five chances He made a seiiFational catch on n lly by Far land In the fourth and seemcd to be very much alive all the time Ferrln did the best slicking for the visitors escaping with three singles out of four times at bat WORK OF THE LOCALS Pendergrafl who pitched for the Rio Grandes was hit harder than Hans Cord but his support was almost perfect per-fect He had much better control than last week and seemed to have all kinds of speed with plenty of oil shoots Scare did not keep quite up to tho pace he cut out for himself earlier in the season He had a passed ball on the third strike in the first Inning and another one later In the game Some of his catches were good however and on a couple of occasions he smothered what would otherwise have been very wild pitches lie got away with two hits one of them being the only two bagger the locals got during the game Donovan In loft Held put up a game like a threetimes winner He had live ohances and got them all one of his catches being made only a few feet from second Sandy McFarland made his initial bow for the season on third for the Rio Grande He had two errors er-rors but It was his first game this year played after working all the night before and his work on the whole was satisfactory The early jwirt of the game was characterized char-acterized by a very high wind which made It exceedingly diflicult to Judge balls In the air and seemed to drag all the crookedness out of the curves Although the day was almost perfect when the game began rain started to fall In the second inning and continued at intervals LARG5J CROWD PRESENT Another large crowd attended the game and the success of the league system In Utah seems to be assured The lack of seating capacity was agalu most apparent tho promised additional addition-al not bolng in evidence Another An-other source of annoyance was the presence of a lot of noisy kids In the grand stand who kept up an almost Incessant racket preventing the audi once from hearing the umpires decis ions and proving themselves a nuisance generally The management promises that the fence will be made kid tight before the next league game The RIo Grn < lcs will play at Ogden today is Following the summary of yesterdays game RIO GRANDE WESTERN AB n 11i
