DISQUALIFICATION

Bert Bower came back yesterday,
and it must have done his heart good
when Jack Doyle stood up and led
three real, rousing cheers for him as
he walked out on the field. There
were not enough fans to make very
much noise, but they made up in will
lingness what the cheers lacked in vol
ume, and that little ovation told Bert
more plainly than a column of hot air
that the fans have been talking him
over and come to the conclusion that
he is the simon pure article when 1t
comes to umpiring.
The band came nearly getting Off to-
false start at the beginning. The
trombone was on first base and tried
to steal second when the drum came in
with foul tip and the umpire ordered
the trombone back. 1t looked as
though the team would go to pieces for
a short time, but they settled down to
steady work and played good team
Z ~ from then ON, although the
Ca,h horn was nearly caught nap
off third base.

The Lucky Seventh.
'tThe lucky SEVENTH said McKeu-
zie as Peters stepped to the bat;
s1make it seven in the seventh and
they did. 1t started, as these things
very often do, with an error near sec.
ond base Peters singled, then Ken
! nedy came up and sent twister down
by Hampton. 1t was an awkward ball,
as it had a screw on it, but Hampton
was locked one for missing it, and
Kennedy went to first, while Peters
stayed on second.
Then big Byrnes came up and swat
ted a bingle that sent Peters home and
Kennedy to third. The ball went to
the plate, is it should have done, but
it was trifie late and gave Byrnes
time to reach second. Then Lyman
made a bad one. Broderick hunted a
slow one and ran like mad for first.
Lyman went to sleep and forgot to
throw. When he did, he threw way
Oliver MarcallinO's head and the ball
went burrowing under the benches by
the gate. While Warren was grubbing
S for the ball, Kennedy and Byrnes ran
A in, and Frederick just managed to beat
kAthe ball to the home plate. -Four runs
and nobody ont.
Johnny Williams was standing the
y strain mighty well and never ratified
1 worth cent, but the Santa Clara boys
:, had found him, and Merv Shafer was
the next man to bingle. Then Hamp
ton had more hard luck. Officially it
I was an error, but it might have been
a hit for Kilburn. Anyway, the latter
/ reached first and Merv went to second.
Then Lyman gave away some more
easy money and Merv went in, Kilburn
!, went to third and Freine reachede Sec
lhd on his error. Pluckily as John had
! 1een standing the strain, he began to
Show it and walked Lappin. About
Lthis time Kilburn thought he saw a
Iehanee to steal home, but he was
4 fcaught in the act, and learned about
EFleaving other peoples belongings alone
E when they are looking.
Merv Shafer took Freine's place at
4 second and stole third, while Lappin
followed his example and went to Sec
ond Art Shafer saw a chance for a
neat sacrifice, and while they were
getting him out at first, Merv and lap
pin romped. That made seven runs,
and was about enough for one inning,
so Peters skied and Williams took a
well-earned rest.
Slap-B Bang Game.
1t was evident from the start that
the game was going to be one of the
slap. bang kind, full of vim and go, and
with the exception of the seventh in
ming it was great baseball. Freine
showed that he felt just right from
the start, although he did comparative
" little flaming. When Williams stood
up in the box he sized up well and
he started to twirl in way that had
the visitors guessing. In fact, they
actually did not reach second until the
fourth inning
The Puns took their first in the sec
ond. Williams singled and went to
second when Bruins was out at first,
but he went back to the bench trying
to steal third Marcallino singled and
y went to second when Warren was safe
g., first. Then Henderson hunted to
7ht%ter, Lappin fumbled and Marcallinc
3fhfi3pnt in. Then Lyman popped and the
~ He was out.
6kkR There was very pretty double play
IN the third. Art Shafer made an error
That sent Burns to first. Then Hamp
n ton came up and sent one with hot
"a bounce out near Art, who was there tC
ID redeem himself. He caught the ball
lHihumped TO second in time to put Burn;
Nh out, and then sent to Broderick in tim,
tft TO catch Hampton.
IA The Puns' other run was scored in
n the seventh. Bruins went to second OF
u Art Sbafer's error, then 10 third OF
Merry Shafer's error that sent MsTeal
limo TO first. Warren famed, but AR
made his second error about this tim,
and Bruins went home. This ended thu
scoring for the home team.
Eleven errors for the two teams doe
not look very good on the score, but
