Rasty Right Does Some Lofty Pitching

Rasty certainly gave one grand ex-
hibition OF pitching. Four scattered
hingles was all that the Hawkeyes
could separate from his long armed
delivery. The result was q sf1utout,
and never was the game in doubt. His
teammates gave him a running start of
two runs, and try hard as they would
the visitors couldn't get away from
his splendid pitching long enough to
escape the coils of a whitewash. Rasty
was given clean support until the ninth
inning, and then when two errors and
one hit filed the bases, Rrasty was
right on the job and refused to allow
Il score.
Iron Man LANCE opposed Wright. He
is some pitcher too. Seven hits was
the sum total from his delivery. But
he wasn't fortunate in scattering them
and two walks which he omitted bios
somed Into beautiful floral effects.
LANCE is the best of the Des -Mofnes
combination. He works nearly every
other day and his appellation of Iron
Man is no misnomer.
Topeka landed two runs right off the
reel Wooley was the first to land.
Isijah took four wide ones, stole second
and scored when Geier "swatted a
Nv in right field. KurkeFs best at
this stage of the game was long fly
to Bader. But Fenlon. the hitting kid,
singled to left and Phil. who had reach
ed second on Dalton's heave to the plate
tailed.
In the fifth inning Wooley hit one
which bounded off Dryers trunk into
safe territory, allowing Lijah to reach
first. Dwyer made a great effort to
head him off but was too late. The
ball went to the sidelines and in a
mass formation Wooley reached sec
ond. Kunkel hit to left center and
Wooley chased around the ball of the
circuit.
The rest of the scoring was purely a
perfunctory effort on the part of the
Cooley athletes. In the sixth with one
hand down Spencer Arthur Abbott took
four wide ones and went to third on
Downie's sharp hit to center field. When
Rasty Right had famed. Downie stole
second and Abbott completed double
steal by coming home on the throw to

Notes of the Game.


FenIon cracked out three Dagger in
the fourth and Thomson got a life on
an error but it didn't figure in the run
column. LANCE did some classy pitch
ing and got out of the hole. F'enlon's
hit would have gone for a single had
to reach the fence. .
McManus did about as neat a job of
catching as has ever been seen here,
Twice he caught the fleet footed Mat
tick trying to steal second. And he
simply ate up the foul flies.
Dalton wanted to show his arm in the
first inning trying to catch Wooley at
the plate after Geier's single. He threw
the ball Is feet over Kerner's head, but
Wooley had it beat anyhow. The ball
hit the stand and bounded back in time
to prevent Geier from taking an extra
base. Hence Dalton escaped an error
Dalton got a hit because Abbott lost
his high hit ball in the sun. The bal
hit the turf about a foot in front OF
him.
McCnntock will be ready to put on a
iured side is mending fast. Kahl has
a very bad knee but he is trying his
best to get in again in a day or two.
Shea, who took Mattick's place is q
reserve catcher. He is distinguished
from the Sioux City catcher by his given
name. Patrick. The Sioux City catcher
is Johnnie.
Lange was here with the Chicago
White Sox this spring and was slated
to pitch when Altrock blew, up. But
the inimitable Nick saved his explosion
for a championship game. Mattick
Rader. Dalton and Miller are also
Ccmiskey farm hands.
Abbott had a bad day. He was josh
ed numerically by the fans. Abbott
will have to retire on his laurels.

up over the county's nice gain in per-

ton hard to beat, and are the best
