Great Falls fans boast that but one southpaw has been able to gain a victory over them thla seasoa. tha hicky on; being Kllbourn. who waa formerly with Boise, and they shouted "Woe to Dreesan'' Dree-san'' when he stepped onto the mound. They had the right hunch, for after getting by with one Inning Dreeean was subjected to a cannonading that had nothing wrong .with It. Two singles, two triples, a home run and a few other thtnga thrown In gave Great Falls a lead of Ave runs before Blankenehlp could warm up another pitcher to relieve the southpaw Agalnat the grand pitching of Blttrotff a five-run leed was too great a handicap to overcome. The southerner walked seven Skyscrapers during the afternoon, but Salt Lake simply could not hit him successfully with men on baeea Salt Lake's first run came in tha third when Pendleton drew a pass, went eo eecond on a passed ban and ecored on Spencer's qtieetlonable hit between pitcher and first.

Dreeean hit Clothier and Shannon was retired nit BlttrolfTs Seiner's choice. 1 "Sorehead" Murphy neat cracked one for three eacka, and Salt Lake fans know how the little fellow can crack them. Hummel succeeded Dresean at thia PMnt. Tha Salt Lake boy started out r hitting Prout. Huelaman Sled out to Cordis, scoring Murphy. Toner struck out retiring tha aids. Hummel, considering the handicap agalnat him. pitched gilt-edged ball from thla on. Ha allowed but four aratterad hits during the elk and twe-thlrda Innings In which he officiated. Great Falls's othsr two rung came In the third and-seventh. In the third Hummel Hum-mel walked Footer, the flret man up. The Great Falls flret baseman atola second and scored on Clothier's single. Abbott dropped Orr's throw after Orr had mads a sensational stop of Prout'e grounder In Devereaux'e territory. In tha eeven th Prout went to third on rluslsmsn'a single and romped home oa a eacrtrlee fly by Toner. Without the. handicap of a five-run lead against hlrn and with any kind of hitting behind him. Hummel looked good enough to defeat Great Falls today. Blanksnship wfll give him a two days' rest If possible and be-llevee be-llevee that he will win tha first game he pltchee agalnat Raed'a men.
