So, the situation for this eveni there's really rain falling at ock, there will be no game at 6:30, as scheduled. If the rain continues to hold off this evening’s game will give the Moose their chance to climb out of the cellar, where two defeats in a row have put them. Not only that, but they will have a chance to climb out at the expense of their old rival, the Douglas Islanders, who are now, heading the list in conjunction with the Elks This evening's battle looks to be a seven-inning sequel to Sunday’s opening battle, when Claude Ers- kine, Douglas hurler, squeezed out a nine-frame, 1 to 0 win over Pap Pitcher Bob Kimball. It is probable that both pitchers will mount the mound again tonight There is, however, a chance that Douglas will start Dave former local slab star, who just this week returned from the Westward, and who has been assigned to bolster the Islanders. Either Turner or Ers- kine will be strong meat for the Moose to meet The Moose themselves will be |some tougher for tonight’s fracas, as centerfielder Tom Martin, who was on the sick list last Sun s able to take the field Tuess nst the Elks and should be right Turner,home y, Talmage, /| Ernie Smith, Mrs. F.
