SUMMARY OF THE FAST GAME

In battle royal the Chess. Check
err & Whist club defeated the Elks
yesterday afternoon by score of
to 2. II was a battle between the
twirlers and every man on the team,
but Bagby held on longer, and kept
the bingles scattered while McChes-
ney weakened and with the aid of
errors the Checks won the game.
For the first few innings the Elks
were in high spirits as they scored
one run, and BANKED the Checkers.
but later the score was tied, and
soon the team forged ahead never
to be caught.
Bagby officiated on the mound for
the Chess, Checks, and he was in
excellent form, allowing four hits
while he was backed up with four
errors. but they did not come at
critical times. Bagby was in tight
holes several times, but fortunately
he pulled out, when victory seemed
far OF. McChesney pitched for the
Elks, and he had nine strike-outs TO
hAo NAtNANf buN ~ Noc MI SoANAy hAhN
times and frequently they were
punched with errors. McChesney
also gave three passes to the first
station, and Bagby gave free trans
portation only once.
Besides Bagby's pitching Hass-
man on third fielded splendid, and
Henneberger's playing at first sta
ton were the features for the
Checks. Puryear's work in throwing
and work behind the bat was good.
McChesney did the best work for the
Elks, while Goodman, Robertson and
Lloyd put up nice game on the in
field. In the eighth inning the Elks
were deprived of certain scores by
fast work. Burns was tagged on
the home pan by Pureyar who
whipped the ball to second in tirie
to catch Beck mapping. In the ninth
round Goodman caught a high foul
with one hand in the weeds near
the fence.
