It was found necossary to M play a ton Innings game to sottlo the I dispute, but Uebor got the best of tho argumont by a 13-12 Hcoro. m Tho gamo was tilled with thrills M and was exciting throughout. In tho H tocond Innings, tho locals made 7 B runs, and having made ono In tho H let, It looked llko oasy sitting for tho Champs. Hebor started in on Shelly during tho second halt of this innings, L nottlng them throo hits. He was H replaced, by Sliorrlll, Tho Heber sluggers seempd to find our offerings, however; as they mado. 20 hits-and runs galore from then on. They made 1 i . two In the second, three In tho third, tour In the fifth, when thoy took tho lead. In tho eighth, the locals scored two runs and again took tho lead. In the ninth, Heber howovor, caino back and tied tho score. During the first half of tho tenth, the locals made two runs nnd It still looked llko a cinch, but in tho last half of tho tenth, Heber "snuck" up and took thrco runs nnd won tho gamo.
