base runners strained for an extra
base and were called out
In the thirteenth Ft. Scott got men
on bases thanks to tumble and a
slow fielding of the ball and scored on
an easy hit to first on which the side
could have been retired but for the
preceding errors, The game will be
protested to the league officials and
thrown out if they so rule.
1t was the most exciting game ever
played in this part of the country.
For twelve innings neither side scored
making twenty -four goose eggs on the
score cards. 1t was clean, fast ball, e,
and was a pitchers battle in which
Smith distanced the Ft. Scott man. If
the game is counted against lola it
will be but another link in the long
chain of the abominable hard luck
story which las attended the home
team.
WEDNESDAYS GAME.
Wednesday the team had another off
lost to Springfield without even test
ing the strength OF the visitors. Here
is the game by innings;
Springfield o. , 0002 0 80
lola 0000l 900 O. /
Craig pitched for the visitors and
he was effective all the time, lola
only getting three safe hits on him.
Springfield made five errors but none
of them were very costly; one contrib
uting to Iola's only run. The visitors
got eleven safe hits of Forney and
these aided by eight errors by the
Lola team gave them their ten runs.
The score should have been much
smaller and closer.
lola WON AT LAST
After series OF hard luck, lola
finally won game, defeating Spring
field yesterday 4to 0. Morgan pitched
a beautiful game, only allowing three
hits. They played one Of the best
games of the season.

FINE GAME SUNDAY

One of the best games of base ball
ever played in lola was put up Sun
day afternoon, the only bad feature
being that the long end of the score
was as usual held by the other fellows.
The final score was , TO l, in favor
Of Ft. Scott.
lola opened the score getting the lead
by taking one run in the first inning
Ft. Scott took one in the second, then
with Il tied score the fight went on. 1t
was a pitchers battle, only four hits
being made by either side and these
well scattered. About the fifth inning
an error by lola allowed the visitors
toget the second run. TT. Scott played
