Professional Debut
Vernon 8, Oakland o

Bill Reidy bumped up against the
stiffest combination in baseball yes
terday with the usual result. He saw
his team play an aggregation which
fielded perfectly, hit in punches and
far afield, and found himself way to
the bad with a shutout scored against
him when the days efforts were over.
Vernon had that game SO salted, iced
and laid away to keep cool that Reidy
never had q chance to stir up any
enthusiasm. In fact, his Baysiders
had no opportunity to get started, for
Roy Schafer pitched winning ball from
the call of the game and never slip
or boot was made behind him. Every
man. on the Vernon lineup but Stovall
and Eagan secured one or more hits,
and Jim Wigs of formidable reputa-
tion, was the man who suffered there
by. 1t was a beautiful trimming the
locals handed him, and he had no ex-
cuses to offer.
WeiseI Makes Debut
Aside from the satisfying score, there
were several unusual features in the
game w. Hogan made a double play
unassisted, Bernard was the medium
of the first score by banging out a
triple and later shooting over with
Martinke's assistance, and two new
busher catchers were used, one by
each team. Brown of the Vernons is
laid up for a week with bad wrist
sustained in a collision with the back
stop fence a couple of days ago. Hogan
sent in Catcher Weisel of the Nc
Cormicks team, young amateur of
much promise. Weisel fulfilled these
promises to the letter, playing an err
rorless game, getting two singles and
showing cool head work. Duweese,
formerly with Rivera, was the other
busher. HaA went in for Oakland in
the seventh Inning, replacing Q. Lewis.
His fielding record was perfect, and
he hit the ball both times up though
he was slowed away by the Vernon
fielders.
Schafer in Form
The six hits gathered off Schafer
were scattered into as many innings.
and this accounts for the goose egg
score. The star of the Suburban staff
showed complete return to form and
brought delight to his leader and to
the fans.
Vernon jumped into the fray with
brave-hearted start that gave them
three runs before big Wigs had fair
ly unlimbered his tall length Ber-
nard's triple opened the wedge, and
the bone doctor scored when Kelly
made a tumble of Martinke's Texas
Lacquer over second, and C. Lewis
added to the troubles of the northern
ers by dropping the right fielder's peg
to the plate Martie sneaked to Sec
ond and Brashear was passed, after
which Coy seized an opportune mo-
ment, doubled hard to right and
brought in the two runners.
Finish in Third
In the third the locals collected
their bats in a bunch, swung at
fearful rate on Wiggs' offering and
totaled three more runs. cinching the
game right there Martinke, with one
out. singled to center and reached Sec
ond on an infield hit by Brashear.
Coy, the demon pinch hitter came
through with another single. scoring
Martinke, and Brashear went over on
Eagans soaring sacrifice fly to center.
Bill Deveraux brought Coy over with
a stiff double to left. and the crowd
rose up and cheered its appreciation
OF the stick rally of the Vernonites.
In the fourth Stovall came home on
walk, a sacrifice and Martinke's single.
In the eighth, just to make things read
evenly, the locals added their eighth
run to the account Weisel singing and
being doubled in by Schafer the Su-
burbau battery thus adding fitting
finish to their splendid work through
out the day. The score in detail:
