Paducah, July 19.-The first of the
four club league game between the
Mud Wallopers and the Indians to-
day resulted in victory for the lat
ter at the close of an eleven li----...s
contest. The game was fast and fur
ious from start to finish and the Mud
WALLPAPERS must be given credit with
having played better ball than re-
ports from Cairo would indicate they
played against the Indians in that
city.
"Biddy" Bittrolff and "Billp Frakes
were the slab artists of the day and
both were hit hard and for long dis
tanee drives. "BiddyF was found ten
times for safe one by the local
batsnien and Frakes seven times
Here is the way the runs of the game
were made:
| In the first inning Fleming pound
ed out three bagger to the fence
and scored on Mares single. Collins
sacrificed Marie to second and he
crossed the pan when Roland hit safe,
In the same inning Gilligan walked,
/ McClain sacrificed him to second and
Bohannon clouted one for two bases,
scoring him. Taylor sacrificed and
lGilligan scored The decision on Gil
! gan at the plate was very close and
the Cairo men are inclined to think
that 1t was not correct.
In the sixth inning Taylor found
"Biddy'' for a three bagger, a repeti
ton Of Flemings. and Perry scored
him with single. Potts sacrificed
Perry 10 second Brahic hit sale and
stole second and Perry scored on
Lands single.
In the seventh inning Harvey open
ed the ball with a clean two base hit
Woods famed out and Land threw
to second TO catch Harvey. The
throw went wild and before the bal
was fielded Harvey had gone to third
Bittrolff drove one to center fielt
which Taylor captured, and Harvey
scored
In the eighth inning Marie started
off with a two bagger. Collins hit {
line drive to Potts and while he wa
beng thrown out at first Marie wen
to third. Roland drove one to PER-,
and Marie scored on the put out.
In the eleventh inning the Indian
registered one in their half a per
