most unbrol1en string that they have 10
their credit. The Zig crowd Of fans who

ever seen. steered by Crooks, Higgins

of the local SAINTS, with the exception of

and in each a run resulted Willie ma e
Two bad errors in attempts to get men on

an the field. Ryan. Higgins, Wilson and
Mctlu were the only men VINO could find
the ball am Ryan was the only one to
connect safely moe than once.
With the exception Of one inning Man
pin, who was in the b1X for the visitors,
had the Saints on his staff very GUAR
ly. But that one inning was enough
And it was no one but Midget" Higgins
who started the fireworks
The visitors had a bad day in the fis!d
Hulswitt, at short missed four of the
five chances that came to him, and his
errors came at critical tines. Doom.
Davis and Schrall all foun1 their way
unto the error column. Hail. at thir,i
and Flood, at second, played beautiful
bail. and Horeymans work in center
field was on the sensational order In
all he had six chances. at Ieas- half Of
them difficult. but he landed every one
In the fifth inning he ran almost to the
cycle track and made marvellous; one
handed catch of a long fly off Werden's
bat 1t was the longest hit that has been
made on the grounds this year and. but
Tor Honeyman's fine play, would I'M
doubtedly have given to Werden the
honor Of making The first home run Of
the season.
st. Paul was BANKED in every inning
but the fifth In that inning Cogan was
first out and went out from Flood to Da-
Wis. Higgins followed by a line drive
through the diamond that carried him
to first and he scored the first run on
Wilson'S tWC-bagger to right field Nc
Gill followed with clean hit which sent
Wilson across the plate. Crooks hit to
Hulswtt and landed safe on the bag
on the shortstop's error. Dillard struck
out. Ryan hit safely TO left and reach
ed second on Schraus error in handling
the ball while McGiH and Crooks crossed
the plate Then came Werdens long
drive to center that should have been a
home run, but really retired the side.
In three other innings the locals put men
on bases but could not get them around.
The. visitors made their first score in
the second on Bebsamen's single and Doc
ms double. Their second score came in
the fourth on two errors by McGfu and
safe hit by Schrau. Doom cornered an
other two-bagger in this inning but it was
wasted
1t was in the eighth inning that the
fans were given a clear case of heart
disease. Flood was first up and went out
from Higgins to Werden. Hall followed
Flood with a long hit between Ryan and
billiard that netted him two bags and
he was sent in on singles by SchraH and
Davis. With two men on bases and only
one out and with the visitors hitting the
ball, 1t looked like the money was ALI
wasted, but McGnl steadied down in fine
shape and struck out Hulswitt while the
best that Rebsamen could do was a little
fly to Crooks
The triple play came off in the sixth
inning Davis and Hulswitt were first up
and both drew four wide ones. Then
came Rebsamen and he hit the bali to
Crooks who was only a few feet off
SECOND. II was a fine fly, and, quick as
flash, Crooks tossed the leather TO Hug
gins who sent it down TO first like
cannon shot and both Davis and Rebs-
amen We're niPped off the bases. Score:
