Pitches Full Contest in Fine
Form, Holding Turtles
to Five Hits.

Memphis. Tenn, April S.-The White
Sox regulars won from the Memphis
Turtles in a 1 to contest yesterday
afternoon at Red Elm park. 1t was
the best game that the Sox have been
in since they left California, for the To-
Gals We're keyed up to their best eff
forts and the big lea guers had to let
themselves out notch or two in order
to win.
Clifford Cravath won the game by
using his head when the opportunity
presented itself. He scored all the way
from second base on short grounder
by Tannehill, which the pitcher and
catcher went after. leaving the plate
uncovered.
The weather was bright and pleasant,
not as warm as the Sox would have
liked it. The heavy rain of the last
couple of days cooled off the atmos-
phere so that it felt a little bit chilly
after the hot weather the men have
been experiencing on the way from the
far west Billy Sullivan brought his
me mover here last night from Little
Rock. The players had a good nights
rest and were ready for a good work
out this morning. The practice did
them lots of good for they had been
without any morning work for a full
week
