"Sandy" Reeves Pitched Good, Heady Ball and Prevented High Lifes From Winning Afternoon Contest Other Plays and Players.

The Miller High Life and Arkansas National baseball teams broke even in their Fourth of July games at Forest Park yesterday. The first game,
 which was full of errors and few
 sensational plays, was won by the youngsters who compose the Hign
 Life club, and the afternoon game,
 witnessed by nearly two thousand
 people, was captured by the "older heads" who line up with the Nation
 als. The score in the first contest
 was 13 to z, while the latter game
 was won to the tune of 5 to l.
 The second game was really the
 best contest of the two and it was l brimful of excitement and interest
 until the seventh inning, when the
 High Life boys went into the air for tionals to run four men across the
 plate. This proved too many runs to
 overcome, especially in view of the
 fact that Sandy Reeves, who did the
 twirling for the Nationals, steadied
 himself in every inning and kept the
 hits scattered. Louis Geneyay re-
 ceived him and his playing was char
 acterized by good, fast, heady work.
 In the morning game Whyte went
 in to pitch for the High Life team, but his wildness and poor judgment
 resulted in his retirement in favor of
 Franey, the ''baby pitcher,' who
 gives promise of making a record on
 the ball diamond. Whyte was placed
 behind the bat and did better work
 in that position. Young Franey held
 the Nationals down to a few scatter ed hits and prevented them from overcoming the lead of the High Life boys. The game was slow, and see ing that they could not win out the Nationals threw up the sponge in the last half of the eighth. "FonZo' Brewster was "easy money" for the High Life babies. They batted him at will and with the bad support given him in the infield was discouraging. ] Carl Ware did some great work at short in the first contest and the Hilz- helm boys and Hanf batted like l fends.
 In the afternon game all the play CTS played ball from start to finish. Ware at short, Arthur Brewster at third, Hanf, Genevay, Finn and Beaurie Hut and others won ap- plause from the fans.
 The pitching of Reeves and Mullen were also features. The Nationals had their batting clothes on, however, and pounded nine hits from Mullen's delivery. The fielding of both teams was up to the standard, but in the seventh when the game was lost, the High Lifes went into the air for a few minutes and the errors were costly.
 In the first game young Ware reg istered one hit, three put outs and five assists without an error. The batting of Clarence Hanf in the first game was also worthy of note. Out of five times up, he made four hits, three runs, three put outs and two as sists. His two errors were not costly Arthur Brewster did some great work in both games at the third bag and the running catch of Frank Taylor in center field won much applause fol him. Watson, University boy, ap- peared with the High Lifes and made some costly errors. He played out of his regular position, being first baseman, and his playing was great disappointment to those who know him. At Fayetteville this year he was a star performer and was re- puted to be one of the best ball play CTS oa the U. of A. team. His record as an athlete is also we'll known.
 Both games were liberally patron ized. The High Lifes and Nationals received two-thrds of the recepits and the Park Amusement company one-third. FIRST GAME.
