Little Rock Sung in the
 Cleaning. Took a Fall Out of No-Hit Mr.
 Buchanan.
Mir. Speaker Said Not Word When Hopkins Larruped Liner Into His Garden, Scoring the win-
 ing Run of the Day.

It looked kinder foggy up the creek along towards the shank of the even ing yesterday For the second time during the entertainment MT. Finn's people had tangled the tally sheet and in the eighth session the book read. Little Rock, B; Montgomery, 3.
 Then came some pretty strenuous rooting-the fans wanted that game were expressed rather noisly. The Climbers half of the eighth was very snort. Buchanan winding 1t up in lag 3 order. Then came the ninth with the tally sheet still nicely balanced. McCamerty had been pitching ball that was unhittable, only one clean hit hav- ing been made, but he had absolutely no control. Every one of the three runs put over by the Travellers was the oirect result of bases on balls. nine of the free boys maving been given.
 Nc got the first man in the ninth all rignt with pop fly to Greminger. Collins. the next man up. hit hot one that bounded away from McCaferty, was the next man up. That gent has a very bad habit of hitting the ball where they aint. At any rate Mo pass ed him. making the tenth base on balls that he had given during the game. Ed Greminger sent Whitey Guese in. Mes lack of control making things look bad for the finel result of the bat
 Greminger waited almost too long though. for Mo had given Page, the next man up, three bases on balls when Guese went in. Whitey was pitching nice ball and had Page going-Guese mad shot six or seven balls over the pan that would have been strikes. Page saving himself by spelling lots of them. He couldn't spoil all of them though and Moran had called two strikes on him. The next ball that strike as one wants to see but his umphs called it a ball, making the fourth one for Page.
 ,., This filled the bags and 1t looked keeps. He struck out MT. Becker and while MT. Corners made a terrific swipe at the ball Archie Parsons pull ed It down way out in the left field. and the big pitcher of the Clim bers had pulled himself out of a frightfuf look ing hole.
 Spike Shannon was the first man up in the last half of the ninth and he promptly drove a clean one to center. MT. Finn's think tank began working overtime and he same to thJconclusion that the Climbers were becoming en- tirely too gay and familiar with the dellvery of Mir. Buchanan so he promt- ly chased the man that once during the gladsome days of June had pitched a no hit game. Guese was the next man up and he laid down a bunt that Eyler ran in on, and threw Hart, who was AAhtiAH6 IOF 0HaHuOn out at EGCOnQ. Whitey going to second on a wild hurl of Flyers.
 Miss Dolly Stark bowed politely to the ball that Person drove at him, Guese scampering to third. Hopkins MT. Speaker did not even yell at, for Whitey Guese was over with the win ming run. The Climbers had the game by score of 1 to 8.
 There was precious little hitting on either side. with the exception of his wildness McCafferty was pitching a swell game of ball. The only hits made off him were Collins lucky drive past Greminger in the first inning and Hess two-bagger that tied the score in the eighth. All of the Little Rock runs were the result of McCafferty's bases on balls and with any kind of G9ntroi G, he would have shut out the snappy support, the stick work of the pendulum.
 t,l Persons a.a9 Talksd in the last half of but Wood was in on the bupt and by a quick throw stopped Persons at sec- ond. Reagan hit safe and Hopkins sprinted to third. counting on Grem- fingers long fly to Speaker.
 Connors walked in the second and shannon made bad throw of Woods bunt Connors getting to second and going to third on Hess sacrifice, count sons, tieing the score. With one down in the last of the third, Per1ous hit clean and got to second on Buchanan's oalk, registering on Hopkins two-bag- ger and making the score to 1.
 Things rocked along this way until the last of the seventh when with one down Persons walked. stole second and counted when Hopkins hit safe. Score was 3 to ]
 Page and Becker walked in succes- sion in the eighth. Connors struck out. Wood was down on a htS to Me- Cafferty and things looked bright again when thoughtlessly Hess punch ed out .two-bagger, tieing up the score again.
 Then came that ninth inning-and the Climb CTS had the big end of the first Little Rock game. The score:
