TWO GOOD BALL GAMES

hits, all Of which were made after the
side should have been retired. 1t
was an awful slaughter after such u
fine exhibition Of semi. professional ball
and the hearts of the fans sank. Bill.
ings was whitewashed in her half Of
the eighth, Helena earning run in
the last half, the score standing 8 to 4
in her favor. In the first half of the
ninth Billings rallied little and after
one man was out earned a score. The
boys were all hitting the ball and the
Helena players were getting nervous
when another score slipped in Oh their
errors. Then, with two men Oh bases
and only one man out, Billings bun
gled in her base running, one man get
ting out at second and another at the
plate, and tho agony was over. The
hits were again nearly equal, Billings
making nine, including two three-bag-
gers and double, while Helena had
ten singles. the errors being five for
Billings and six for Helena. Our
errors were the more costly, however,
and most of them came together, but
the excuse cannot be made that we lost
through hard luck; Helena outplayed
us in her fielding and base running and
was again entitled to the victory. Her
team is too swift for us and. while
Billings can make her play ball good
and hard, the home team is not ell
titled to win more than one game in
four or five from the champions.
There were several fine features Ill
the game, the most notable Of which
was running fly catch by Scott III

plete somersault after catching the ball.
but still held it. The bases were full
at the time, too. and the play was as
pretty one as was ever seen Oh ball
ground. Scott also got three hits, one
being beautiful three. bagger, and
captured two more flies. Rose and Nc.
Neeley each made an error at second
and short, but each accepted eight
chances and played splendid ball, Rose
lining out three.bagger and also hav-
ing single to his credit. For the
visitors, Burton again led the fielding,
accepting eleven chances at second
without an error, one Of them being a
very difficult left.hand pickup of hot
grounder Oh the dead run. He also got
two hits. but Arncson led the batting
for Helena with three singles. Free
man again did beautiful throwing to
bases. which was largely responsible
for Helena's victory. The score:
