There was very little bombarding. In fact
in only one inning did the teams make more
than one hit and that was In the second,
when all o. the tallies registered in the
contest were secured. Ford opposed Con-
verse and the pitchers put up a magnifi-
cent battle. the Hoosiers being allowed to
win through the generosity and careless
ness Of Converse. The Millers afforded
their twirier faultless support, while the
fielding of the Wattykins was fast and
brilliant, with the exception of the sixth
inning. when hobbies by Fox and kim
gave the spectators little of the dubious
feelings. but a double play deprived the
visitors OF chance to score.
Throughout the nine innings Ford kept
the visitors at his mercy aud with the pos
sible exception of the second inning they
were unable to do anything with his de-
livery. They opened the game by retiring
in zone, two. three order. The Hoosiers
threatened TO score a run in the last half
of the opening round. but nothing came of
the noble effort oy Kihm and Fox kim
