Gillen walked, but Spies gave Frank
a fly. Phyle put slow one at wolver-

other at Genins, and it could not be
fielded, either. That filed the sacks.
Miller had grounder going through
short that looked like a two-bagger at
least, when Hulen made a sensational
stop and only one run scored. Glen

runs before Shugart forced Geier out

Burke opened the eighth with two

to steal third, but Sullivan saw him.
Burke started back to second, but the
ball was thrown over Wolverton's head
and Eddie scored in a canter. The next
three did not do anything worth men
