D ALLOON AcCkNcIONct pgEoktcll-
Il mic displays. shattered reputa-
tions. together with a star ex-
hibition of mud ploddiRg were the
features of yesterdays game between
Lagoon and Logan. Everybody took a
hand at hitting the ball. and nearly
everyone took a hand at missing every
Thing that came his way.
Twenty-eight hits and thirteen errors
tell the tale Of what was done In this
line. Two pitchers pulled out Of the
game after they had been numerically
hammered indicates what happened 10
the pitching stan OF both teams. Twice
during the game the rain got in its
work and stopped play long enough to
put a new coat Of mud on the grounds,
which glued the players to the dia-
mond like so many fys TO sticky paper.
The result of this was that any old
kind of a hit was good. and attempts
at making a fast pickup generally re-
suited in an error. with the player fall
ing all over himself.
Start Of With Hughey.
Lagoon started off with Hughey in
the box. but the fat boy did not last
long. He got along with the Infants all
right in the first inning. and then
things happened. Taylor. the first man
up. got to first on an error and Hart
eel few out 10 Kelly. Glade sent a
tWo-bagger over to len field. scoring
Taylor Richards got a free ticket.
and an error by Kelly left Stucke on
first
King nailed Rameys fly and stoney
hit the bali safe to left field, scoring
both Richards and Stucke. Pace got
q free pass. and an error by Flake let
Hotter reach first. Stoney started for
home. and after Kelly felded the ball
10 Hughey. the latter threw Il at the
grand stand allowing Stoney to score.
Taylor came 70 the bat for the second
time and struck out
This gave the Logan bunch five tai
lies 20 the good. and all was Joy with
them. Lagoon took its turn in the
third and hammered Mr. Statuary
Richards for five hits. who, assisting
Dy hitting one man and giving two free
passes, along with two errors by Pace
and Glade. piled up a total Of eight
runs for the Farmers.
Farmer Buck put Mayne In the box

by placing his hits. managed to win
the game for the LagOons.
Swims and Plays Baseball.
Mayne is a newcomer, and while be-
ng a baseball player, holds the envi-
able reputation Of being the champion
middle distance swimmer of the world
It was probably for this reason that
he felt right at home during the game,
as large quantities of water came down
during the greater part Of the time he
occupied the rubber.
IN the fourth. Hahn took the place
OF Richards for the infants and held
mp well until the ninth, when he got a.
little of the same dose given Richards
IN the third. Dwyer. the first man up,
went out from second to first. Kelly,
King and Mayne each stepped up and
hit the bail out for safeties StOney
missed McCauslands hit, and when
the play became settled, Mac" was
safe on second and Kelly and King
had both scored.
Bradley flew out to right and Wea-
yer stopped a pitched ball with his
ribs. taking first. Flake came up with
q long fly TO left field, clearing the
bases and landing himself safe on sec
Ond. Another error by Stoney let
Plake IN. making a total Of six for the
inning.
Umpire Hardness came in for his
share Of roasting from the grand stand
and bleachers. and while some II the
knocks were justified. yet his decisions
