ana the double plays were all of lightning
character. In the first inning Work made
a safe hit but was forced at
second by Lytle When Glenalvin struck
out Lyle ran to second and scored on a
wild throw down by Spies In the fourth
INNING Lyle hit safely, and took second
when Harper erred on Glenalvin's

stole second. Lyle was thrown out at the
plate trying to score on short passed
ball. Abbey got first on balls, stole second
and Glenalyin scored on throw-down. In
the eighth inning Sharp hit for two bags
and scored on sacrifices by Harper and
