Show THE SUN, PRICE, UTAH FADE EIGHT OUR CALLERS RECORD SEASON Reenforced - - Team An NOW ALL READY Urn An Now Giving WU Under Wy ror Th. Eastern Utah Treat. Carbon County Pair. Baseball lovers of Eastern Utah are being treated to the best baseball in the history of this section of the state, says the Salt laike Tribune of August 3d under a Iriee dateline. The Eastern Utah Baseball league baa been advanced rabidly the ljast few yean, until at the present time it nnks as one of the fastest and beat of it kind in the state. The games this season with a very few exceptions, have all been dose, especially those of the second half. Four games of the second half have been decided margin, while twu of by a one-ru- n the contests have gone into extra innings. For the first time in four years the eity of I'riee can boast of a real baseball combination, Elmer Hanrke acquired from the Salt Iake Hers at the start of the season, has been liurn-nin- g the league up and has pulled many a game out of the fire with his suM-rpitching. I'riee has not the iiest fielding team in the league, but the players are all good stickers and make the going tough for rival pitchers. Hiawatha also boasts the strongest team of years and is dose on the heels of the local team. Iliawatbn and I'riee tied for the first half leadership and the playoff will take place at an early date. The King Koalers have one of the strongest pitching staffs in the league with Woodhave and Scott, both former Salt Lake City hoys Engberg, Williams and Swenson are Zion boys and have been going great for the coal camp this Hummer. Hassenger, Young, Garber and West are all oldtimers in the Eastern Utah league and are a great help to the youngsters on the club. Kenilworth is right up in the running and, although out of the league for a number of seasons, the Independents have banded together a fast elub. Tom Kelly, recently of the Copner league, has added a world of strength to that outfit. Dudler pitched the first half for .Kenilworth and turned in some re- markable victories, the games he did lose were usually the result of errors on the part of his mates. Kincaid and Gardner, both former East Side high stars of Salt Lke City have been going great for the Independents, as also have Clifton and Layne both former Copper league players. : Sunnysideunder the able leadership of MeBeth, has not had consistent pitching until the second half. Diek Braxier of Colorado has been signed up by tliia elub and the team should win a lot of games the teeom has more home run boys on Jialf.'It than any other one in the league. PrmetiraHy the entire nine is composed of Sunnyside fellows. Hel- Obtaining of a number of new attractions and the apjwrtionment of funds for the premium list have now brought the plans for the 1927 Carbon eounty fair, the first to be held in ten years, to a point where the exposition promises to eomjtare with any eounty fair in the state. A detailed premium per has one of the fastest fielding nines in the league, but the team lacks pitching strength, and hitting power. Helper has lost the last three games by one-ru- n margins. Sherrill, a Salt Lake City twirler, has been pitching for them, but has usually suffered one bad inning eaeh game in which his opponents got enough runs to beat him. It also has a Urge number of home boys on its roster. Large erowds are attending the games, and attendance records have been shattered in every park this summer. The teams at the eoal eamps are supnorted by the welfare associations of the camps and the players all work in the mines or shops. Helper and Price support their teams by the gate receipts ami donations from the various business houses.".
