Hill starts IT.

Shelton retired on a sky-scraper to
the infield. but Hill started something
by putting a liner straight in front
of him about shoulder high and with
such speed that McGreevey and UNI
pire Hogan almost disjointed their
backs in ducking under it. Graham
hunted a short one that went to Nc
Greevcy. The latter tried to catch
Milton, who was running for Hill, at
second and would have done so, but
Moriarity did not hold the ball. Will
Jams got behind the horsehide for n
magnificent drive into deep left, but
it went too high and Kinlock got un-
der it. With two men out something
had to be done. Donnelly waltzed
out with the willow and drove a nice
one past third, bringing Milton in.
ConweIl sent high one to right
which the wind carried away from
Thompson and caused him to make
on error. Graham raced home on the
play and Conwell camped at second.
Case famed. The score was tied till
the ninth. Then Donnelly, who had
made the first run possible. did the
safe act once more, Conwell bunting
and forcing him at second. In trying
TO make a double of il the sphere got
away from Barker and Conwell made
second. Cases hit through the mid

and won the game. O'Rourke popped

vIckers Has Bad Arm

middle of the week and there were
enough from out of town to make a
variety i'm the roofing that was re-
Ifreshing. Nickers started the match
i'm the box for the locals hut he de-
veInped a bad arm aIFl was succeeded
in the third inning by Case. The lat
ter pitched his usual fine game and
kept the visitors guessing all the
time. The errors. in which Bloom
ington eXcelled. were 10 a large eN-
tent CNcusable and served to make
the game interesting rather than 9th
erwise.
McGreevey's stick work brought in
the first score that was made. IL was
in the second inning and Moriarity
stood on third. having reached the
bag next To the home plate through
fa bad throw on the part of Shelton,
"A sacrifice hit by Brown and another
by BeedIe. Mac" picked out one to-
his liking and sent il hurtling down
between third and short for the score.
King took walk, but Corners flew
out To Hopkins. The other run of
the visitors arrived in the fifth. when,
after two men were out, Kinlock
made the circuit by means of pass.
a steal and n nice hit by Barker
So far. ROCK Island had not devel-
oped any great prospects and the pes
simists in the bleachers were
wearing their sourest expression.
Some of them had even begun to root
mildly for bloomington. 1t did look
blue with McGreevey's pitching and
the fine support he was getting. But
there came a break i'm the skies and
the sun shone through the clouds in
the first half of the sixth.
