TANNING TIGERS
GREAT SPORT

Spokane Z, Tacoma 4.
1t was a game that was interest.
ing from start to finish. Up to the
ninth Rasty Wright could do al.
most as he pleased with the
Tigermen, and even in the ninth
he did as he pleased it seemed,
for he deliberately allowed Mar
tinke and Bresino hits. The Tigers
made two runs in the ninth. Their
first two were secured in the third
and fourth.
Here is the way things broke for
Spokane: 1t was in the fifth when
gloom was beginning to settle.
The batting order started at the
top of the list with Dave Rowan
Ike Butler was smiling, for he had
had prospered hugely for four in
nings. The Indians had negotiated
three runs in the third, but Ike
thought he had their measures and
prepared to fit them. Well, Dave
Rowan found him and sent the
leather away off into left field.
Billy Hulen raped snappy one
past shortstop. Then Kippert and
Clynes singled in succession.
Bobby James walked. Then
Stevens and Mackin singled. Rog.
ers went out second to first and
Wright sent one over to first base
and went out.
When it was all counted Spo.
kane had four runs, which added
to what they grabbed in the third
made total of seven. That was
enough and for the rest of the
game they didn't worry. -
The big batter was Billy Hulen,
who got two sacker in the first
inning, got to first on an error in
the third, singled in the fifth and
another two Dagger in the sixth.
Bobby James couldn't run much
and was put cut at first twice,
when if he had been able to run up
to form he would have won hits.
The new lineup looks mighty
good Dave Rowan plays as good
first base as Hulen. He missed a
fast grounder yesterday by being
over confident. Billy Hulen is good
anywhere and played dandy
game at second. James did well at
third

Mike DISCOVERS new
MOUNTAINS

Mike Lynch is more of a
comedian every time he comes to
town, He tried hard to pick war
with someone all through the
game, but imp. Bobby Carruthers
has the Injun sign on him and he
didn't start ho3tilities until after
he had lost. Then he discovered
that there was a lump about the
size of full-grown pea in the
whitewash line between home
plate and third base. Mike figured
that Billy Hulen beat a bunt be-
cause the ball had rolled so slowly
up this mountainous pea that
Waters couldn't handle 1t in time
to put Bill out at first Following
Mikes complaint Carruthers went
over and annihilated the bump by
stepping upon il. When he stood
upon 1t Mike gazed far off into the
heavens as If Bobby was on top OF
Mount Tacoma It's likely he
had lump of dirt In his eye.
