LITTLE ROCK
 BASEBALL MAD
The Travellers Yesterday Took Their Fourth Straight
 From Memphis

Little Rock, June IS. Little Rock is now baseball mad. The Travellers have at last struck a winning streak, after having been touted all spring as the classiest aggregation in the league. The Travellers took the fourth straight game from Mem- phis, usually the hardest team in the league for the locals to de- feat, yesterday by a score of 6 to 3. It was a shut out until the eighth inning when a base on balls was followed by two hits and another base on balls to force a run home. Buchanan then threw wild to the plate on a bunt and allowed the other two to score. Savidge was easy for the Travel CTS, they getting 10 hits off him, while Buchanan, who has beaten Memphis four times this year, gave us only a hit. New Orleans, with it's aggregation of ex-big- leaguers, is playing here today, and the fans are counting on two out of the three games with Peli- cans.
