Monday. but that does not signify that It
was an exciting game or one fun Of inter-
est True It had many exciting turns, but
these came from close decisions and from
players getting hurt rather than from any
startling base ball. Pueblo won the game
In the tenth inning by punching three hits
with a stolen base and two errors. scoring
two runs.
King hurt his ankle by going into the air
after a high throw from LeBrand and then
lighting on the edge OF the sack. After a
short delay he was abie 70 resume. Austin
hurt his shouIder badly In the last inning
when LeBrand threw wide to third to catch
Smith. Pa is in a bad way for utility men
and these players will have to stick II pos
slble. with Graham sim in bed and no
prospects OF playing again this summer
the team il badly crippled.

Huff, former scout for the Cubs, who
picked up Pfeister from Pa as well as
many other players from other teams, in
the stand. Although June is but half gone
Huff is out looking for players for next
year and the harder some tried to make a
good impression the poorer they played.
