THIRD IS TAKEN AS
GAME WAS ENDED.
Americas Was Playing Good
Ball.
LOST EVERYTHING IN SEVENTH
Home Run Struck BY Fisher Did the
Work-Up to Seventh Inning Honors
Were Even-Waycross to Try Re-
suits Here Today.

After holding Columbus down to a
score of one to one up to the seventh
inning Americus lost the game as the
result of fine strike by Fisher of the
Columbus team, which not only scored
home run but likewise let in three
men on bases.
And thus the visitors took the honors
by score of to 3.
With Lamar and Stephens at the
fore the locals played good ball for six
inningF, when bunch OF costly errors
put them to the bad. And in the
next Columbus got in her work.
In the seventh inning Spencer, the
new pi cher, relieved Lamar, and
Americus scored two runs in the ninth.
It was the irony of fate that Mcknight,
long with Americus but now with Co.
lumb bus, should have pitched a win
ning game against us.
Fishers home run in the 9Th, with
three men on bases, was what put
Americus out of business and made
the score like thie:

roar1ouS n n I n n n n n > Q ~ =
Columbus 90 600 SO O-6 II 2
Nearly $50 people Witnessed the game,
a pretty one, though the visitor took
it. Today Waycross comes for thre e
games and Americus hopes to pull
down at least two of them.
