1t began to look as though there
would be a scoreless game last even
ing in the five inning contest between
the Fairmount nine and the Woolen
Mills aggregation when after three
and one-half innings had been play
ed neither side had succeeded in get
ting man over the home plate.
In he'seeond half of the fourth
inning Bowen, of the woolen Mills,
sent hard drive to centerfield and
scampered to first. Farmer who
came up next had the misfortune, or
good fortune to get hit, thus send
ing him to first and Bowen to second.
Bowen stole third and Farmer trotted
down to second. There were two
down when Nelson went to the bat
and the crowd awaited breathlessly
for the result. Daue sent in one of his
elusive drops which was caught fair
on the willow club and driven far out
in leftfield with no one under Il. At
this point the balloon went up. Bow
en- stretched his legs and crossed the
tally line with Farmer right at his
heels. Nelson, who had saved the
day went down to first like Jinks In
his new auto and when the cloud OF
dust cleared away he had a grip on
the third bag with both feet. The
over-joyed boosters and everybody
else walked up and rent the air with
several war whoops which shook the
|grandstand.
Hatch grasped the big stick and
svatted a fly which Carey nailed be-
tween first and second and this ended
the scoring OF the contest with two
credits for the Woolen Mills and
string OF goose eggs for the Fair
mounts.
In the first inning Keaton, OF the
Fairmounts, scrambled down to first
after giving the horsehide a small
jolt and then stole second and third.

was at the bat when there were two
down. could not get his lamps and
upper extremities to work together
in locating the ball.
The Woolen Mills in their semister
did not get any further than second.
where Sheridan was standing when
his side was told to take the field.
There was absolutely nothing doing
for the Fairmounts in the second
chapter and the best that the Woolen
Mills could do was to send Bowen
to second, where he died a natural
death.
in the third inning Rauveaux was
hit with the ball and took his sta
ton at the first stop but after steal
ing second and third with two down
hts hopes were blasted by Rice send
ing a bounder down in-field which
was scooped up and sent TO first be-
for the batter could get started.
Tie usual story was all that hap
pened TO cheer the Fairmounts In the
fourth, but after the Woolen Mills
had done their stunt TO two runs In
their half things began TO brighten
for the oppressed south Salemites,
but only ended in disappointment.
Phillips made first. and Arnold sent
a peach" over by the fence in the
right field which was returned be-
fore Phillips could get any farther
than third. Had the next man dupli-
Gated Arnolds big drive things would
have been evened up, bat he didn't.
The strong arm of Bowen and the big
NIT behind the bat soon ended the
story. Daue pitched good game
for the Fairmounts and kept his men
guessing, and while both he AMI
Bowen were hit several times 1t was
not at critical moments. with the ex-
ception OF Nelson's drive.
The Wooden Mills and the Y. NJ. G.
A. are now tied for second place and
the contest between them will prob
ably be a hard struggle.
Ormond Bean, of the University OF
Oregon, umpired the game.
