For sheer heart-breakiny excitement.
the Elk-H. A. C. game had any other
contest this season looking like a ses-
sion Of the Old Maids Sewing Circle for
the Benefit Of Foreign Mission, with
the teapot and the tabby cat purring
side by side on the hearthstone. II was
the prettiest kind Of baseball all the
way through. with more star plays
tucked away into nine inning than usu-
ally come In two or three games. Both
teams were stretched to their limit,
straining every nerve to pull the game
down, and the result was a great bat
tie. Inning after inning came and went
with the men executing daring and
faultless plays and the grandstand vo-
cal with Joy. There was good deal
Of bitterness running around loose be-
tween the Elks and the Reds. and
this kept the crowd on edge all the
time. Where the nervous strain under
which the teams were playing Is con-
sidered. the fielding errors are mostly
excusable. They were due to over
eagerness. The two errors chalked up
against the Reds are both wild throws
to catch men of bases. Hampton erred
twice In the same way, Leslie once.
Moore once. and Grady once-all due to
over-eagerness. The only other error
was when Hampton grabbed En- Sues
grounder with man on base. and
couldn't decide where to throw It,
finally letting everybody safe.
| Outside Of that the fielding was su-
perb. Evers, the crack Elk shortstop
shone like a comet taking in line
drives, picking up sizzling grounders
and winging to first with great speed
and accuracy. AL williams, En- Sue
Moore. Hampton and J. Williams were
up on their toes In the infeld all the
time. The gardeners were not kept
