After Long Game

Was the Style of Playing by
Both Teams

It took twelve innings and cool, steady
playing for the Quakers to defeat the de-
termined teachers from the Emporia
State Normal yesterday. Up to the time
the winning score was made the game
belonged to anybody. with things moving
along like clockwork. AS fast as the
men on either side came 10 bat it was
one. two. three, out, or pop-up and out
With the exception of a few errors, and
those OF the most costly sort. the field
work was all that could be desired The
error that lost the game for the teach
ers was made by their shortStop, Bright.
He was not entirely TO blame, as the
ground where he had TO play was slip
perry, and in making a throw to first he
slipped and threw TO one side out OF the
reach OF Potter.
In the twelfth inning Senter drew first
on an error by Roberts and stole second

which was gobbled up ike hot cake
on cold morning. Young stung Weiland
for safe one and trotted down TO sec
ond. LoOmis took his turn at the willow
but the stick he had had hole in it, and
he had TO retire after taking three smashes
at the pill. Howard punched the horse
10 first bur made wild throw and missed
his man by ten feet, and Senter came
prancing in home with the winning run.
In the second inning, when the game
was young, Cluster got next TO the twist
ers on the Quaker whirlwind for a safe
one and stole second and third by
scratch, and then got home on passed
ball. For the next inning there was
nothing doing that could make a score.
In the last half OF the fourth, when the
Quakers came to bat. Thompson picked
out a good one and drove it out far
safe hit. He stole second and then got
to third, and then got home while Clus-
ter was making up his mind 10 throw 10
first TO catch Senter. The steal home
was as pretty a piece of work as was
seen on the diamond yesterday. A good
lead, swift head work and the thing was
done.
From the second up to the twelfth the
teachers only got one man to first. In
the twelfth Bright got a safe one and
stole second. Cluster got to first on an
error and stayed there, while the next
two men went out on flies. The Friends
got three men TO first. one around 10
third and two to second in the last nine
innings.
Neither team could do much with the
others slab artist. Nelson made seven
teen men lay down the willow. while the
best that Weiland could do was TO chop
off eight men. The teams divided the
honors il hits. each getting four off the
others pill artist.
Nelson pitched a phenomenal game.
Only one man walked during the entire
game. He was well supported by the
whole team. and only two errors crept in
in the twelve innings. The Normalites
got three black marks on their side Of
