Nicholson's drive was in the doggie'S
paws before Carney gave two bases in
succession to FioX and Hauser. Pitch

cared for it. Burke and Miller were
out on flies before Glenalvin got st.
Paul's first good line fit of the game,
only to be forced out on Glasscocks
short one to Gear
Glenalvin threw O'Hagan out as the
fifth began, but Slagle, at last, man
aged to straighten out one of the Car

touched three bases when the muddy
sphere had returned to the diamond.
Wilson rolled slow one to Glenalvin
too slow to field to the plate, and
Slagle scored. McVicker hit hot one
at Carney, who interfered with it, but
could not hold it. Glenaivin got 1t final
ly. however, in time to throw to first
and catch the outfielder from the South.
Shugart and Gillen were out on high
ones to Slagle and Nicholson before
the locals evinced any marked determi-

that they were not the only batters in
the world, sticking one out through

Miller sacrificed, although, after get

was really a great deal of doubt about
the ball beating him to the sack To
a spectator in the stand it looked as
though Wilson, in stretching to get the
ball, had left the base absolutely Then
Glenalvin hunted, too, and Burke, who
had reached third on Miller's effort,
came home. Gear had plenty of time
to throw him out at the plate, but
Hauser dropped the ball, and Burke
was safe. Gear again got the ball,
and Glenalvin, who had started for
third when he saw Hauser and Burke
rolling over each other at the plate

Gals were one ahead.
In the seventh, after Glen and Shu-
CART had thrown out Gear and OLA
