Barry Quick Back in Chehalis After Salt Lake Try
Local sports notes discuss Barry Quick’s return to Chehalis after a miss with Salt Lake and possible play with Southwest teams. Polly Grimms’ pitching arm rumored to be regaining strength, likely merely out of practice. Saturday plans show Montesano high school boys traveling rain or shine, with a postponed reception due to rain and Winlock’s earlier game canceled for cold. Frank Shriver’s strong pitching against Everett Reliance, four games this season with nineteen strikeouts and ten hits allowed, signals potential for more work. Rev and Mrs Snider hosted a surprise gathering from church friends last Saturday night, a pleasant social event.
