hours fought them to a standstill' dark

battle of the season. Birmingham, 4;

As deep shadows began creeping over
the outfield eleven innings had been
played and Umpire Mulane, feeling that
the rooters had got their moneys worth
approached the grandstand and an
nounced that hostilities were off for the
afternoon. Victory after such contest
would have been a sweet morsel to the
hungry fans and the cessation of battle
came as a bitter dose to those who had
hoped to see something doing in the
next round.
The eleven inning contest of yesterday
was by far the prettiest game yet seen
around Slagtown and while the pitchers
were both in fine form there was Just
enough timely hitting to keep up the
excitement. Many batters were trans
ported to first base on balls, but many
more dashed the air in vain attempts
to kill the ball only to suffer the ignomy
of a strike out Clark broke the seasons
record at home by striking out nine of
the Piratical crew, and on one occasion
putting down three IN succession while
Clark Did Great Work.
Clark had phenomenal speed and his
curves broke lust at the right spot But
for his bases on balls he would have won
his game with comparative ease. Lack
of control however, was due to the wet,
slippery ball which occasionally Skipped
