three straight had he been In yester-
days game He bstted in the first two
runs with timely single, going to third
himself on juggle in the outheld. when
he caught foul which he should have
let go, rs 1t gave Little Rock run
which tied the score, he determined to get
the run back His opportunity came in
the eighth when Milleriok singled and
went up one on a sacrifice. LEIGHTON hit
for two bases, scoring him.

was peculiar play. Little Rock had the
bases filled with one ont. Mccain put a
long foul fly at the end of the bleachers,
which. if it had been allowed to go, would
have been only strike, though there was
a chance that he would have hit safe.
LEIGHTON caught the foul and Gilbert
scored on the throw in tying the score.
