some light comfort in the face of the
congeaIing westerly gale, which gave
decidedly trapped feeling TO things and
reduced interest in the game to a low

Had it not been that both managers
were anxious to give their teams some

While he was not as effective as Cy

only five singles, but two of these came
in the fourth inning and gave the visitors
their only run. Morgan was inclined to

This gave Boston two earned runs. In
the sixth the Red Sox punched three
more hits for their final score. The tall
twirler had perfect control and seemed
TO be in first-eIass shape, but the chilling
blasts were too much for him.
Considering conditions. the fielding was
remarkably clean. but there were few
features, although ShlpSe made a pretty
running catch of a foul ball near the
grand stand from Corrigans bat in the
fifth
