Gathering 13 hits of the delivery
of "Sinokey" Boyer, mound ace of
the Texans, the Pioneers took a rath-
one-sided contest from the Palestine
entry in the Missouri Pacific League
overin the East Texas City last Sun-
day afternoon by an 8 to 2 margin.
"Dutch” Hoffman, nrter a week of
service with the Houston Buffs, was
in charge of the team and performed
in Class A style behind the plate
while his battery mate, Perryman,
had ills right hand slants working in
a fashion that made the Texans look
like anything but the hard slugging
team which humbled the loeul boys
out at Athletic Park a few weeks ago.
The Texans managed to find the
Kingsville flinger for only 7 hits and
he turned 7 back via the strikeout
route.
Every member of the Pioneer ag-
gregation except "Button” Cox man-
aged to connect with the horsehide
safely at leust once, and Ploger, who
has been holding down the hot cor-
ner for several weeks, led the attack
with two slashing singles that figur-
ed in the run getting and climaxed
his day at hat with a three-bagger in
the eighth, with the bases saturated.
The locals lost "Lefty” Deck when
they reached Houston last Saturday,
he having been called in by the Lake
Charles team of the Cotton States
League, to which he was under con-
tract. The gap in tlie outfield was
filled by Boh Hunnicut, who turned in
a creditable game.
The victory has served to pep up
the drooping spirits of the trail blaz-
ers as they are still in the MoPac
pennant race on a basis of "mathe-
matical possibility." With one more
game with Palestine, three with San
Antonio and two with Houston, all on
the home diamond except one of the
Alamo City contests. the Pioneers
will tie DeQuincy, provided the Loui-
sianians are considerate enough to
lose one of their four remaining
games.

with Robstown last Sunday. Don’t
know just what Robstown is going
to do for us, but we are ull in a very
receptive mood. But the best thing

being done.
We had big crowds at both worship
services. Every seat taken at the
