One OF the fastest games ever seen on the

day afternoon when the Corona Juniors of
Omaha and the Transfers of the Bluffs
battled for twelve. long innings The jun
Tors led the way nearly all through the
game and had 1t not been for the mplaying

the Transfers in the last half of the ninth
inning. In that inning with one out In
man cracked out a beautiful two-bagger
which fell fully six feet inside the foul line
and the umpire said foul ball" and after
that. all hope for the Juniors vanished
and they played ragged ball until the
twelfth inning, when the Transfers got
three runs. When the Juniors came to bat
in the last half Of the twelfth the crowd of
roughs there threw their hats and coats
and were by no means giving the Omaha
boys fair deal Atkins pitched fine ball
all the way through, allowing but seven hits
and striking out thirteen, but the support
that was given him was something ragged.
Kraninger also pitched top notch ball. The
players of the Transfer team treated the
boys from Omaha fair and square, but the
umpire and crowd that watched the game
are the ones that the Coronas find fault
