American Fork Boats Provo in Close Battle 3-2 Utah Central League Club Standing: : W. L. Pet American Fork 3 1 .750 Provo 3 2 .600 Eureka 1 2 .333 Heber 0 2 .000 American Fork regained the lead in the Utah Central league Wednesday afternoon, when it made hits count to defeat the former league leading, Provo Timps, 3 to 2, In an exciting game played at the local ball park. Dyer, on the mound for the Provo nine, hurled nice ball, allowing but five hits, but errors and a home run by Nelson, American Fork catcher, were responsible for his defeat Addie Miller, pitcher for the Cavemen, allowed al-lowed 10 bits, but kept themi well scattered to hold the batsman well in band In critical moments. A smashing two bagger by R. Nelson, Nel-son, the Timps' first baseman, gave Provo its two scores In the second innings, following Vacher's single and a walk by Conant. Bennett was the stellar batsman, of the day, with three bagger and a single in four trips to the plate, while Nelson was the best bitter for Provo. Sunday, June 9, American Fork goes to Eureka, and next Wednesday, June 12, Heber meets the Cavemen with a rejuvenated team at the home grounds.
