House and Williams were dragging
along with fielding gait that deserves
honorable mention" Because the To-
Gals hit and hit timely, the luck was
with them as it should have been, and
Ii was no inconsiderable factor in the
result.

off in the second, and the procession
made Redmond look like a four flush,
and caused Kennedy to talk back to
Swigert. almost to the point of ex-
pulsion, over close decisions. House

Indian at second, but was too slow.
