In the second game of the season
yesterday afternoon, Tighe's Islanders
lost to Hills Rabbits by a score of s
to l. An aerial trip by the home team
in the ninth inning cinched matters for
Cedar Rapids, they making five runs,
nearly all due to errors. Up until the
last of the fifth inning there was not
a score made on either side. The Rab-
bits found the ball easier than they
did in Tuesdays game, getting II hits
off Lundin.
in the first of the sixth Murphy led
off for the Islanders, and was given
first on balls. Swain followed with Il
hit for one bag, advancing Murphy to
second. Vandine hit to Radabaush,
and was thrown out at first. but by
this time Murphy had reached third
base SpantOn went down while Ste
lverding was trying without success to
catch Murphy at the plate. This gave
the Islanders their only run. Berger

tried hard to make it home, but was

Rapids with single. Shaw followed
with a high drive to Swain. but it was

one to Wanner, but was thrown out al
first. Curtis followed and swatted the
sphere for a two-bagger, tallying Cakes
for the first run for Cedar Rapids

Curtis for the second tally. Stever
