The first game, Powerview vs. Hungry Nine, proved to be the thrill of the day. It went 16 innings before the Hungry Nine won out 12-11. The next round of Seven Sisters and Great Falls Combines, went to Great Falls 8-5. On the final, the Hungry Nine beat Great Falls 7-6 in 10 innings. All in all it was a fine day of fast ball. Bob Honke completed the notable feat of pitching 26 innings of winning ball for the Hungry Nine, all in one afternoon. Irvine Honke sure hits a long ball, checking, in with two home runs. Ernie Klapratt seems to get better as he gets older, plays some nice left field for Hungry Nine. As usual the faithful ladies had lunch to sell in the booth, and manager Willie Herzog reports a profit of $116.00 on the day’s activities.M V MArPinFineentran tourna Saturc and 16In sionah flights Out turn ; a 68 i profes and J place, course C.
