lis SUPPORT IS VERY PUNK

Charlie Fritz had the left-hand hit
| tiers on the local team buffaloed yes
| terday. and the combination of his
pitching, good support from. the Peli-
cans and a big reversal of form on
the part of the local aggregation gave
the last game of the New Orleans Sc
| ries to the Pelicans by score of Z to 4.
Leo Walsh was easy for the Birds
| when hit was needed to bring over
a run, while the "support'-save the
| name-given him would have made a
yellow flag look like a brilliant red
one. Everything seemed to break
| wrong for the locals and the easiest
| kind of chances were turned into the
| punkiest pieces of fielding.
Locally the one thing that saved the
! game from being tiresome was Moose
Bakers base running, and that of
| Fred Houtz. Baxter stealing third by
sliding into the bag in the seventh
| and Houtz deliberately stealing second
with the ball in Fritz's hand In the
eighth.

tween Ball and Hansen. Fritz hit one

Ing. Phillips ended it with hit to
Hansen, leaving the score to o.

struck out and Henline went out on "a
hit to Gatins.
The Pelicans made it to l in the
fourth when Gatins hit to right ana
reached third when Walsh made bum
throw of Mathews's bunt in trying to
catch Gatins at second. Then Mathews
started to second TO draw the throw,
Baxter and Hansen chasing him and
Gatins flirting along the line between
third and home. When Gatins started
in, Baxter threw the ball, Seabaugh
dropping it and Gatins counting.
Another one came In the fifth when
