In spite of the fact that the game was

teams played hard and fast. and the

The Tigers were in better form than
the day before. The two games of Sun.

in their crippled condition, and thew
had had little opportunity to recuper-

Tor eight innings, although he did find
hlmself a little outclassed in the final
inning.
Cross was in the box for the locals
and he, too, had one bad inning, but
in his case it was the sixth. Tt was
so bad, too, that 1t looked as though
the Tigers might get game, and go
away with bone in their teeth, so TO
speak, but they could not save it.
Sharrott opened the last game of the
season with clean single back of Shu-

rubber.
Eddie Burke got a base on balls, and
