Farmers Union Edged At Worland In Ninth Games proved to be just one in ning to long at the recently played Montana-Wyoming semi-pro base ball series. The Farmers Union dropped the first two games to the Worland Indians, both in the ninth j nn i n g. In the first game Mike Peckovich was on top 2 to 1, with but three hits when going into the last in ning. After striking out the first man everything happened and the Farmers Union went down 6 to 2. Jack Troseth lined out a double that was followed by two more doubles, a walk and a home run. Laurel had gone out in front with two runs in the third inning and Wor land's Chuck Harkins scored by way of a home run in the fifth. The second game, delayed for an hour by rain, saw Hofmann on the mound for Laurel and Worland's ace left-hander, Jack Stine, pitching for Worland. In a game that fol lowed the pattern of the first as far as good baseball is concerned saw the game tied up at three each, going into the ninth. Laurel failed to score in its half and Worland opened w r ith a double. With one out and two on, the bases were intentionally loaded. The second man was forced out at home and Davis then lined a hot grounder to short, but the relay to second was too late and the second game was over. The third game was played under the arcs, but was rained out in the sixth after the scoreboard read 5 to 5. A return series is in the offing for these two clubs late in August or early in September.
