Messner brought in the second tally for the Rangers in the sixth. Althouse, Centralia pitcher, scored in the- seventh. The nine innings ended with a 2 to 2 tie score. Costa, another Olympia pitcher, substituted for Quasebarth late in the ninth. Mertis was walked in the tenth with the bases full. Costa's single brought in che winning tally 3 to 2. Quasebarth pitched a great game and we expect much of him. Costa also showed ability on the mound. ST. MARTIN'S 3, CENTRALIA JUNIOR COLLEGE 1 The second victory of the season came on April 12, when in a return game the Rangers defeated Centralia Junior College on their own diamond by a score of 3 to 1. No scoring was done until the fourth when Nisbet, Centralia catcher,'was enabled to score by a series of singles. I-Iurney and Brown sacrificed and Weber singled to enable I-Iughes to score in the fifth. Hughes scored again in the seventh after he had knocked a two-base hit, and Weber had knocked him in with a two-bagger. Keber tallied the final score in the eighth when Mertis knocked a single. The Ranger pitcher, Costa, was re- sponsible in a large measure for keeping Centralia's scoring down. ' F fa 1

The two new chuckers from Olympia, Quasebarth and Costa, have showed up well in the five games played, and McGowan, last year's pitcher, promises to be another star on the mound. Schaff is also doing good work in the pitcher's box. Hughes, last year's catcher, is displaying his usual control and co-operation with the pitchers. Brown, experienced player from Chewelah, is holding down first base regularly, and his ability in picking up hor grounders has made him a valuable man on the team. Mertes at second base demonstrates unusual ability and it is apparent that his experience at Chewelah High School enables him to play a good brand of ball. Hurney at third base promises to- be a Slugger, the kind who will knock home runs. Keber, from Mt. Angel, is proving to be a hard hitter and his ability at stopping grounders has made him an excellent shortstop. Toner, an experienced high school man, plays right field and is an excellent hitter. Schmidlkofer is also making a strong bid for this position. Messner, former high school man, is fast gaining a reputation as a home-run king. Contris, last year's varsity player, is holding do-Wn left field. All in all, a very successful season is expected, which has been borne out by the five games played. Four victories and one defeat show that che team is out to bring home the bacon and from all appearances they will be successful. f

It was not until the fifth that the Rangers started, but then began a batting orgy which lasted until six men had scored. Keber, Messner, Hughes, Hurney, Contris and Quasebarth tallied.
