got Mr.. Watkins "an het up" as they
say down in Indiana.
BY carefully sandwiching these
clouts in between bases on balls. err
rors, wild heaves and stolen bases. the
Saints chased in fifteen taIlies with
out killing the interest of the 543 pres
ent. This vast assemblnge stood for
1t all and egged the Saints on to more.
The interest this town takes in the
ball team is compelling coment all
over the circuit, and we almost hate
to see the Saints go away on a win
ming trip. Should the team return in
first place, there would be grave dan
ger of many enthusiastic lives being
crushed during the mad rush to the
ball park. Since the champs have
been playing here Mr. Donovan has
been sending the assistant ground
keepers through the grand stand each
night with orders to push the opera
seats up and down to prevent them
rusting into a fixed position.
j. Ace" Stewart worked for the
Saints and refused to act as a safety
valve for the pent-up feelings Of Mr..
Watkins Ace started in to let the
Champs down with "foah pitiful hits
but Silent Mr.. Kihm and Eddie Hey
don Were playing safe and whaled out
five all by themselves. Mr.. Kihm's
anything but pitiful also.
Kellum drew his first trouble in the
second when with two gone he passed
higgins. Kelley singled and Hug
gins went to third. Kelley stole sec
ond, Eddie Heydon declining to throw
to stop him. J. Sullivan hit a one
baser and Higgins and Kelley scored.
Sullivan galloped farther down the
paths on the throW-in from center and
scored on Stewards single. Geier was
retired by Kellum and Kihm and the
round ended.
In the third Heydon hit for three
bases after Tamsett had been stopped
and the catcher scored on a wild throw
by Stewart. kellurn singled to show
that he had his heart in the play but
Hogriever flew out to Shannon and
Cap'n Fox famed.
In the fourth the Champs continued
right along and aided by Mr.. Kihm
knotted the score. Jones opened with
single and Kihm walIoped one that
went to the cycle path When Mr..
kim hits the ball he sprints until
some OF the champions trip him at
a bag and sit on him until he locates
the ball again. This time Mr.. Kihm
refused to be tripped and hurdIing
the outstretched legs at third came on
the rest of the way for a homer. Coul-
Ter made the first out and O'Brien
singled. Tansett flew out to Scha efer
and Heydon raped a one baser.
kellum hit to Wheeler who tagged
y. O'Brien at third for the third out.
Kellum exploded in the fifth. An
other blow up was noted in the eighth
but this came after all danger had
been passed. Gier opened the middle
round with a single and Shannon sac
rlhced. Jackson raped a long single
and Gefer scored. Jackson stole sec
ond and Schaefer singled to left
Jones let the ball through him and
Jackson scored. Schaefer got to Sec
ond on the error. Wheeler scored
Schaefer with a two sacker and went
to third when Kellun threw wild in
an attempt to catch him mapping at
the middle bag. Higgins hit for two
bags and Wheeler scored. Kelley went
out, O'Brien to Kihn, and KelIum
walked Sullivan. Stewart singled to
left and again Jones missed his grab.
Higgins and Sullivan scored and
Stewart went to third. Geier left him
waiting there by going out, Fox to
Kihm.
A base on balls and two singles gave
the Saints two more in the seventh and
then kellurn got his again. Shannon
drew base as the opener to the
eighth but Jackson forced him at Sec
ond- Schaefer hit for three bases and
Jackson scored. Wheeler raped out
his second two sacker and Schaefer
walked in. Higgins hit to Tamsett
and Wheeler was caught between Sec
ond and third. After being chased by
all the available champions Kellum
got the ball and tagged Eddie after a
hard sprint. If KeIIum could pitch
like he runs. With Higgins waiting
at first Kelley sent him in with a
cIout for two sacks and Sullivan
scored the manager with a single.
Stewart ended it by flying out
With one gone in the ninth the
Champs raped out three Texas
leaguers and then with the bases filled
Hogriever hit to Stewart and forced
Tamsett at the plate. By hurrying
Sullivan got the ball to Kelley and
doubled Hogriever at first for the end.
