HOT BALL GAME (Ceatisaed from the First Page) was Mike Grover of Culbertson. The large crowd and the fierce determination of each club to win caused each player to be nerved up to the highest tension, and the re sult was a splendid game. Culbertson went to bat first and secured one run by Cutting. Pop lar tied the score in her first inning and enthusiasm ran high. Both sides were retired without a score in the second, third, fourth and fifth. Excitement and enthus iasm was near the breaking point in the first half of the sixth when McCormick for Culbertson bunted the ball which fell near the foul line. Dr. Underwood called it a foul and Walker of Great Falls, the other umpire, called it a fair hit. Col. Walker of Poplar and Catlin of Culbertson finally agreed to toss a coin to decide. The coin fell in favor of Poplar and McCor mick had to go hback an- try it ov er. The side was retired without a score and the game was still a tie-I to I. In the seventh Fagen of Culbert-. son made a score -n a two-base hit by Hocking, but was declared out by the umpire on the ground that he did not touch third base as he passed it This decision nearly caused a riot, several of the noble red alnie of Poplar being anxious to mix an. The Invincibles, after an argument of nearly half an hour, decided to let the decision stand and again played ball. This ended their chances in that inning. When Poplar came to bat in the seventh Whitney brought in a score, making Poplar one ahead. You aught to have heard them holler. Their victory was short lived, however, for in the first half of the eighth McAllister made a home run for Culbertson which again tied the score and Make Grover went crazy. Poplar was retired without a score and at the begin ning of the ninth the score was 2 to s. Slette made a run in the ninth which woe the game, for the Pop. lar boys were retired without a score in that inning.

St. The Third Annual Commence ment Exercises of the Culbertson High School were held in the Opera Hall last Friday night, May 3;, 191s, and the big hall was crowded to the doors. High School girls acted as ushers and seated the large audience with sat isfaction to all. The stage was beautifully decor ated with class colors and lovely roses. At each side were potted plants and plum trees in bloom. The top of the piano was covered with American Beauty roses. Miss Grace Maltby, being the only graduate this year, occupied the place of honor in the center of the stage. Rev. J. W. Chase, Prof. W. A. Alexander and the Willis ton Orchestra completed the stage picture. The Walliston Orchestra played the opening overture and received an enchore. Rev. Chase invoked divine blessing in his most impres sive manner and this was followed by a piano .Lut, by' Miss Maltby and Miss Ida Slett-. After much applause the girls responded to the enchore and repeated the per formance. Rev. J. W. Chase presented the address of the evening on account of the unavoidable absence of Rev T. K. Cookingham who was on the program for the part. Rev. Chase is an earnest and forceful speaker, although not at all dramatic. His address gave his auditors much pleasure. The High School Bob"' Glee Club favored the audience with a song and were forced to respond to an enchore. The latter was a comical hit entitlefl, *'There is Only Room for One." The Willaston Orchestra again favored the audience with delight ful music, which was followed by Miss Mary Frenzel with a vocal se lection entitled "The Carnival." Miss Frenzel never fails to please and the audience called loud and long for another, but she evidently concluded there was "only room for one," and refused to respond. Miss Kavanaugh accompanied her on the piano. Miss Grace Maltby then deliv ered the Commencement Oration. She was dressed in white and. car ried an armful of lovely American Beauty Roses. She was the "sweet girl graduate" true to life. Excite ment lent sparkle to her eyes, col or to her cheeks and animation to her manner. She received an ova tion from her many friends before she began to speak. Miss Maltby chose for the sub ject of her oration "The Passion Play," and gave a very realistic description of the birth, life and crucifixion of our Savior as por trayed in that historic play. She spoke dlearly and distinctly and the large audience followed her with much interest ss she described the actors in the play who devote their whole lives to the proper ren dition of their respective parts. Her oration called forth another storm of applause. In fact the audience on this night was in a particularly enthusiastic and hap py mood for a Culbertson gather ing. Prof. Wm. A. Alexander made the presentation speech in a grace ful and impressive manner, after which Rev: Chase pronounced the benediction and the evening's ea tertainment was over. The eve ning will long be remembered by many Culbertson people, and par ticularly by one, who will look back upon it in later years as one of the happy events of her lse.

He pitched good bell for all that. Our Ike Slet,. was in splendid form.. He let a few men trot to base on balls-but some umpires would have called several of thes strikes. Diehl caugbt a By in the last half of the game while the bases were full retiring the Poplar side and winning the game. I. L Brooks and Mike Grover lost their hats on the train coming home. Their heads were evidently swelled by the winning of the home team. The Culbertson boys all came home feeling good over their vic tory, and Poplar certainly had no kick coming. Poplar expects to come to Cul bertson on the Glorious Fourth, clean up the bunch and take the big prize offered for the game. Culbertson goes to Sidney next Sunday and a good game is ex pected. Froid second ball team will come to Culbertson to play the High School team next Sunday. The game will be called at 2:30 o'clock p. m. Admission will le free-, and it will be a rattlntKg game.
