Slipping and sliding through nine hectic innings of exuberant ball, the Skelton softballers defeated the Vul- canizers 18 runs to 8. Frantic motions to retain balance while throwing the ball and high dives after flies in the field were the highlights of the game. W. Forrest hit a circuit clout for the winners,

The local baseball nine turned the} tables on Mission on Thursday last, when they defeated them by a score of 6-2. Haynes pitched an excellent game for Abbotsford, blanking the Missionites until the eighth inning, when a homer with a runner on bases gave Mission their two tallies

The Atangarders had their revenge on the Red & White squad, by defeat- ing the grocerymen 9 runs to 5, in one of the best games seen this year. Red & White started off with two runs in the first inning, but presented the hotel boys with three runs in their turn at the plate, errors in the field, with two men down, proving costly. The Atangard drew ahead, steadily. Two home runs were hit by the losers, one on an er- ror, but there were no runners on bases at the time.

The Richmond Athletic Club plans to bring teams to Abbotsford some time next month to play softball and lacrosse,

A large crowd witnessed the first Vancouver team of the season tussle with Abbotsford on Sunday afternoon. The first game was close and the score was 4 all until the ninth inning. ‘Things looked bad for the locals in the visitors’ half of the last inning, when Swift’s had two men on bases and none down. Abbotsford got out of the hole however, with none of the city team crossing the plate, and in the locals half of the canto, broke the tle to win 5 runs to 4. Abbotsford, with a different line- up, did not fare so well in the acon game, errors .costingthem.runs,. nal score was 9-2 for Swifts, vEe hit two clpcuit clouts during the game.

PROGRAMME Editor News:

‘The program given in the theatre Sunday night by the Chilliwack or- chestra was excellent, but as usual, marred by some of our ill-bred youn- ger citizens. When the show was running, it was just the same and the pictures the adult mind looked upon as pastime (sometimes a faint regret that life couldn't be like it, I'll ad- mit) the scene was changed to some obscene thing by the remarks of the half-grown lads in the building. Of course. they can’t all be weeded out, but people who persgnally know them should take steps to inform their pa- rents, and a few hard whacks on a tender spot may curb their tongues.

Picture-Taking Time is now here

It is the time when Nature is at her best. If you have never taken pictures you should begin right now. Don't let another season pass with- out the enjoyment that a good ca~ mera affords,

If you would live over and over again the pleasures of your outing or vacation this year, take a camera with you. We supply everything the amateur needs— the popular nfakes of camera and provide a fast develop- ing service.
