fau1tless style and drove in one run on
a clean single to right field. Four of
the seven hits made off him were
scratches. The big boy is all right
and showed an entire reversal of form
since his last appearance. His curves
were breaking wider than Kansas ave-
nue., and his fast one had a jump
two feet high on it. No wonder he won
his game.
Biersdorfer for Des Moines was not
satisfied with his defeat of Wednes-
day and wanted to go in again. He
pitched a better game than he did the
first day of the series, but in the first
inning his support sprung two large
leaks and the southpaw of the Boost
erS never recovered. But without the
errors Topeka would have had no
trouble In winning.
Topeka started In the first inning
after two men had been executed.
Cooley reached first when Dwyer
fozzled his grounder. Richard stole
second and went to third when Me
hoff fooled with Fenlon's ground
ball With runners on first and third
Dr. Jason hit a clean one to right
field and the Topeka leader scored.
Fenlon was caught a moment later at
the plate while trying to complete a
double steal.
Des Moines came right back and
evened it up in the next inning. With
one down Dwyer reached first when
Kunkel threw high to nrst. Dalton
drew the only complimentary of the
game from 5urnum and Dwyer
scored on Niehoff's single to left field.
But in her half of the second To-
peka took the lead, never again to be
headed. After Matticlxs had cared for
two long flies to center field, Kerns
doubled to deep left. Burnum hit a
nice one to the right garden and
Butch pranced home.
Then the game few along for four
innings without a run being made

Denver, COL, May s.-The Sioux City
Packers and Denver team played a
hard game yesterday afternoon, which
Denver won after a hard fight. Sioux
City came within one run of tying the

bobble was a high throw to first. He
handled himself well. and covered a
lot of ground.
The real feature of the game out
side of the pitching of Burnum, was
the fielding of Matticks of the Des
Moines team. "Chink" robbed Kunkel
of a certain three Dagger in the sec
ond inning and in the eighth pulled
off another long running catch on
him.

The big doctor had a busy day, two
putouts and five assists Doc in the
estimation of the Topeka fans still has
the edge on any third baseman seen
here yet. He is fast, covers plenty of
ground and his arm is as good as in
the golden days of chiIdhood-years
ago. And the best feature is his pep
per and noise. Even the worst noise
which the doctor can make in a game,
sounds like music to the young play
ers, and serves as an inspiration for
them to go after everything in sight,
and fight to the last ditch.
