The opening one. Heidrick scored first on
Eioerfeids tumble. and went to second on
WaiiAce's out. The side should at this
stage have been retired, for Burkett. the
first man up, had struck out. Heidrick
made a clean steal of third. Hemphill
walked and stole second.
Jones singled over second base, EIber-
field barely reaching the sphere and stop
ping Its course. Heidrick scored. and
Hemphill cid across the plate only a mo-
mcnt before Camel had recovered the ball
and thrown IL to MCGUIRE. Padden was

Of tying the score. Conroy led on with
