fed Preston's fly. Clancy threw Ritter
cut.
1t was five to nothing when Shugart
caught two pop-ups and Beam struck
out again in the fourth.
Beam made a fine stop of DenzerS
hot drive, but Camel muffed the ball,
which was thrown a little warm for
his bare hand. Burke forced Roger
out, but Geier was given base again,
and Glenalvin drove out q low liner
that made the pitcher and umpire take
to the woods. A pretty throw to third,
by Sharrott, however. retired Geier as
Burke scored. Glenalvin went to Sec
end, and scored when IsbelPs grounder
went through Clancy. Shugart flew out
to billiard
Briggs hit what looked like a clean
home run drive to right field. but Geier,
by long run. got the ball in his
hands, and, still more remarkable YET,
held 1t there, too. Briggs could hardly
believe it, and ran a couple of extra
bases to see what would happen, but
Geier showed him how easy it was TO
catch flies when Sharrott put up an
other, and Shugart made a nice play
on Stallings' ground drive.
The Saints went out one, two, three,
without getting the ball beyond the
diamond
DUNCAN opened the sixth with a good
Isbeu a fly, and Camel forced Sam
out at second, being stranded himself
when Buelow struck out.
DenzerS fly was caught by Stallings,
but Burke hit a slow one that neither
billiard or Clancy could quite reach,
and Geier put a harder one in the same
direction. Glen forced Geier out, but
Isbell lined hard one down the dia-
mOnd straight and pair came in.

ed the ball. and the erratic shortstop
was safe. Then the catcher got rat
tied and threw the ball into left field
while trying to catch Isbell asleep at
third. Frank came In and Shugart
went to second. Gillen got a base on
balls, but was caught trying to steal.
The locals had lead Of ten.
Clancy flew to Burke and the next
two to Geier.
Clancy threw Preston out, but Beam
gave Ritter a base, and when the extra
catcher started to steal second, Clancy
hurried toward the sack. Just then
DenZer pOked the ball very opportune-
ly through Mr.. Clancy's recent posi-
ton and a two-base hit was made out
of what might easily have been trans
formed into a double play. Burke hit
for two sacks to right and with steal
Of third and a high throw by BuelOw,
which billiard did not stop, the locals
increased their lead to IS runs. Geier
got a base on balls. but was doubled
out on Glenalvin's grounder, Glen not
perspiring any in his pursuit Of the
elusive base bag.
ShugarN took a pair Of flies in the
eighth but DUNCAN was hit in the ribs
by a pitched ball, and billiard beat
out a slow grounder to Shugart. A
good hit by Camel would have driven
in a run, but he put foul ball high in
the air and Isbell, after hard run,
took it under the very caves Of the
right field bleacher.
Beam only pitched three balls in the
eighth, and singularly enough each one
of them was batted back into the dia-
mond within his reach, He threw them
to first base perfectly and Camel got
them. and the locals did not care much,
at that.
Glenalvin threw Buelow out, and
Clancy struck out. Beam put a safe
hit over short, but Briggs struck out,
and the game was over. The score:
