roasting for trying to run into Tozer
when the latter was after his pop-up
fly. Tozer. however, held the ball and
Marshall got what was coming 20 him
from the stands.
1t is doubtful if 2 gathering Of salt
Lake fans ever rooted as hard as the
crowd did yesterday in the fifth in
ming for the local team. The first
men mp got safe hits This was fol-
lowed by two walks and q man hit
by the pitcher, forcing IN three runs
1t was a clean case Of Ogden being
up in the air. Jimmy Byrnes waved
the red shirt at Hansen and the crowd
yelled some more. Then Hansen show
ed that he was cool If none Of the rest
Of his team was, and in the next
couple of plays nailed two men of Sec
ond and Agan retired the side by
catching a foul fly of first base. A
little head work by the locals and
! judgment at this stage should have
Melted them a thousand runs.
Bert Margetts' eye was to the bad
I on one occasion yesterday and that
was when he called Whiting out at
home To those in the stand it looked
as if the Salt Lake first baseman was
safe by at least a second.
"Squat ty'' Scott made a beautiful
bluff at being hit by the BAH when he
faced the pitcher in the ninth. He was
also supported in the bluff by the
whole Ogden team, who came running
to his rescue. Margetts gave them a
grin and yelled one ball. Scott smiled
and the game went on
However Nahoney was hit yester-
day and hit hard at that. He stopped

arm and it came near putting the Og-
{ den second baseman out of the game
Not a single kick was heard when he
was given his base.
Cooks running catch of F'ulmer's
foul in the ninth, retiring Ogden for
the day was without question the best
running catch of a foul ball seen on
the diamond this year. The ball was
hit away back by The Herald score
board and it looked impossible for the
soldier to get it He nailed it though
and got the glad hand good and plenty
by the fans Of both teams.
Kimerer's run in the ninth not only
Won the game for Salt Lake, but net
ted the popular Maroon player a lit
tie coin of the realm from enthusiast
tic fans. Silver was passed around
/ freely to Paw when he scored that
home run.

! Cook and Egan led the Maroons in
hitting yesterday, both getting three
out Of five up. A few more hitters
like this pair on the local team would
win all the games for Salt Lake.
Tozer, Salt Lakes new pitcher, got
off well with the fans yesterday and
he should have. as he pitched good
ball. He IS a. little shy with the stick,
but he fields his position well and has
good control. 1t was noticed yester-
day that he could put them over the
plate whenever called upon to do so,
and the fact that Hansen was one of
his victims on strikeOuts shows he can
fool the best Of them.
Ames, the amateur, was up against
hard luck yesterday and should not
get discouraged. It was his first pro-
fessiOnaI game and in spite of the
fact that he was hit hard. many of
the fans think he will make good.
While he was in the box there was
some pretty loose fielding done, which
was enough to discourage any pitcher,
even an older head. He bats we'll and
fields well and by all means should be
given another trial.
Egan held down the position of
catcher in a manner worthy of a sue
cessor of Cannon Ball Jimmy. The
latter, however, was out in right field
with a bad hand, which may keep
him out Of the catcher's box for a
couple of games. While Egan does
very well. vet he belongs at second
and Jimmy at back stop and then the
crowd feels better when the ball is
being thrown around the diamond.
Fettes, the former Salt Lake pitcher
sat on the ogden bench yesterday in
a Lobster uniform. He did not, how
ever. take any part in the game. 1t
is understood that Fettes has a little
score to settle with the Salt Lake club
before he plays with the Ogden team.
A letter to that effect signed by Presi-
dent CritchlOw was handed Manager
BinfOrd before yesterdays game, and
it might be that this was the reason
Fettes did not relieve Nash when the
latter was up in the air.
Two teams from the auditors Office
Of the Oregon Short Line met on the
diamond yesterday The teams were
composed Of the junior and senior
members of the Offices and the young
sters carried away the game by a
score of Is to 0. The winners lined I'D
as follows: Muir, c.; Forester, Meek
er and SibIey, D.; Bassett, 1 b.; Hahn,
2 b.; Meeker and Evans, 3 b.: Bowen
and Jenkinson, S.: Nixon. T f.; Case,
C. T.; Price and Stevenson, l. T.
The Cleaveland and Fort Douglas
teams meet again this morning at the
Fort Douglas grounds. The game is
called for a. m.
Especial to The Herald.)
Ogden, June 21.-One Of the largest
crowds Of the year is expected to be
in attendance at today's ball game.
There viii likely be at least l 900 peo-
pie IN Ogden from Salt Lake with the
Woodmen excursion and a number Of
these win undoubtedly find their way
to the ball grounds.
