Walla Walla Boosters Win Two In Weekend Games
The Walla Walla Boosters claimed two victories over the Kids with Saturday’s 4 to 7 and Sunday’s 3 to 6 games. Reports vary on the final scores as the press remains silent on exact outcomes. Walla Walla led with two runs in the fourth and seventh innings, while the Kids battled back with two in the sixth and one in the eighth. Bonds were posted for W. A. Bohart and John Garrison from Umatilla County after a federal grand jury indictment for perjury related to homestead proof. Bohart, a Ukiah cattleman, and Garrison, formerly in Pendleton’s saloon business, appeared in Portland for the hearing.
