. Nevada City Athletics travel: to
. Auburn tonight for an 8:30, game
. glarly scheduled Placer-Nevada
. The team will leave at 6:30.
. Pelayo announced Lynn Roath as
. the starting pitcher tonight and
. he expects to have Carl Fisher
on hand for relief duty. The lineup will probably be the same as
. the one that started against the
{Lincoln Potters here «hast Sunday.
Pelayo was named to manage
. the northern all-star team in the
annual all-star game which will
be played in Auburn Tuesday,
. July 11. L. A. Carter of Folsom
will manager the southern team.
The hopes of the Athletics for
a championship during the second half received a severe jolt
«when the team played dead from
, the word ~go last Sunday here
. against the Lincoln Potters ana
. took a 15-5 drubbing. :
For the fifth time this year the
. local team blew the duke in the
. stretch to lose the game. With a
. tied 4-4. score in the sixth inning
. Potter batting power and listless
. Athletic fielding’ turned the tide
;} to the visitors.
Three hits off Roath, two er. rors and a walk spotted the Pot. ‘rs three runs in the first inning.
. Deward’s double gained back two
; of them’in the bottom half of
. the inning.
. he Athletics blew several golden opportunities for runs. In the
sixth two runners in scoring position were left stranded when
. the power end of the batting order popped up feebly one, two,
three.
In the second inning Babe Childers, gun-shy after stopping one
of Hartman’s fast ones in Roseville, came to bat with the bases
loaded and two out. After Umpire Valdon gave him life twice
on called balls Babe.swung at one
in the dirt to retire the side. Jake
Goldsberry, first man up in the
next’ inning powdered a home
run into the centerfield bleachers. Ainsley Fouyer a few minutes later droye Carnesecca from
the box with a home run into left
field.
The Athletics had a 4-3 lead!
but not for long. The Potters tied '
it up in the fourth inning and .
that’s the way it stayed until the!
sixth inning. During the last four
inning .the Potters gathered 11
runs while the home team futiles
picked up one.

At Cherokee Creek the road
ends. You step out of your car
. ready to stretch and take in a big
lung-full of that fine mountain
air. But* you don’t because the air
lis filled with lddy-bugs on the
wing. Never have I seen such a
phenomena of insect life. In this
secluded spot beside running
water, tree trunks, stumps, and
mossy rocks were covered solid
red with lady-bugs and the air
was so thick with them that you
breathed with caution. ~ ;
But “Lady-Bug Glen” is fortunately a very restricted area
and we soon found a point. of
flat rocks which jutted into the
Yuba, an ideal -picnic spot. As
we ate, Dow and I speculated on
a life-raft excursion down the
Yuba to Bullards Bar: reservoir
and inspected the nearby rapids
with more bravado than good
sense. It still sounds like a thrilling experiment in adventure.
Does anybody in the audience
know the history of rapids-running on this stream?
Hiking down a good trail, we
found the ancient rock-piles of
Herculean gravel-washing effort.
On the map the place is marked
Cut-Eye Foster’s Bar. What can
the historians tell us about this
place? Dad paused beside a fernfilled grotti and breathed “If you
had nothing to do but sit and
dream this would be heaven.”
Maybe that’s what we are looking for: places where we can sit
and dream. The world has so few
of those places left. And even
when. we see them for a fleeting
moment, they become pleasant
memories to store away when
“civilized” life becomes frustration and boredom.
