For eight rounds the fight looked If it
belonged to the mlllers, but in the ninth, when
the Kelley outfit had restired without run. the
Padden aggregation burned a trail around the
bases for one score and to tie.
The tenth was the time the fireworks were
touched off. The nillers retired with blank.
Drill stepped to the plate and smote a szzler

jaw set with grim determine ton. Three times
he landed a mighty wa11op the atmosphere

Geier strobe to the plate and slammed at the
spheroid. ''Strke one." said his jumps. Wiling
went the willow and his jumps shifted his
quid and muttered "Strike tuh.'

belt and spat his hands. Cadwallader shot
a swift one over the tile-and Geer hit it.
The bif went to Oyler, who had short argu-
ment with it. In the meantime Geier landed
safe at first. Joseph Sugden then tapped one

advanced to second. MT. Van Zandt the

the leather over the right field fence and Geier
