Where They Play Today. Hot Springs at Pine Bluff. Brinkley at Argenta. Newport at Helena.


 By pitching and fielding like an "old head" and aided by the good support of his team mates. Dudley Lewis, one of Pine Bluffs real box artists, put the block and tackle" 10 Arthur Riggs aggressive aggregation or ball tossers yesterday at Forest Park and won, after hard fight score to ,. The Hot Springs League leaders tied the score twice and had it not been for the wildness or Pitcher Will Everhardt, a pronlis- Ing Missouri product who went in to IWlrl the visitors to victory, the con- vest might have gone several extra {nnings and there may have been a d1ferent tale to relate this morning to the students of the Diamond Done Book
 The visitors played good baseball and they have no one to blame for their defeat but Everhardt. He lost ms own game in the ninth when he sent four bad ones across the plate to Carl Ware, probably figuring that 1t would be better to walk him than to let him swat it. But Everhardt "reckoned wrongly" He might have been correct in his figures had he not lost his head, while fielding a ground CT from Beavers bat, which the Mis- souri lad threw high to Coyle at nrSt, giving Deaver life at the initial bag and permitting Ware to make the circuit to third. Berry had already gone out to third and the fans were predicting ten, eleven or twelve in- ming affair. But Ware let no grass grow under his feet He and Lewis worked their signs to a finish at the right time and when Lewis knocked one down to Smitheal at short. Ware crossed the home plate before Smith, cal dielded it. The game was won while Smitheal was cutting down Lewis at first. But Lewis didn't care. Ware had gone home and the heady young twirler won his own game while Everhardt played in hard luck.
 The fans got their moneys worth yesterday. They saw one of the real hair raising contests of the season and there was enough good baseball to make them forget the poor exhi- bittOns seen here of late They showed their appreciation of good baseball when the grandstand and Dlenchers, with great applause, com- peMed Second Baseman Kelly of Hot Sprlngs to doff his cap, after he had r003ed Carl Ware of beautiful drtve to right-center in the third It waga sensational catch and one wh3<h merited liberal applause Kelly maSe long run for the sphere and as 4e neared it he showed out his left gloyed hand and the ball stuck there.
