No one ever imagined that there

the Lanks had made so many and

three singles, a homer and a double
In the seven times he was at bat.

the league Dennant interest In the

is the best to which any of the
Staters may now aspire to and the
struggle for that place held so long
by the Lancaster club, will doubt

Fight for Second Place.
During the fifteenth week Marion
and Lancaster made n hard fight for
honors. Lancaster, though beaten by
Lima managed to hold onto the posi-
ton principally because the Diggers,
for the first time this season, lost
two games In q day, and Mansfield
was the club to administer the trounc-
Ing. Coming right when the locals
had been travelling at lightning-lke
pace for over month the surprise
was just Cha. much greater Lima
played the best ball of the week but
the Diggers were close second with
Lancaster next and Mansfield. New
ark and Portsmouth in the same or
der named.
Up this way the Portsmouth show
ing in the week was decidedly dis
appointing. But O'Day's course Is
probably a very wise one. trying out
youngsters and getting ready for next
year when. with conditions far better.
the season will be more successful
than the present one.
Lanks Take n Brace.
Recovering q bit from their terrible
experience In Lima the Champs may
travel better In the next few weeks
and make II hard for the Diggers
to overcome their lead But unless
they march fast both Diggers and
the Mansfield Tigers, who mark you,
are stepping mighty lively since they
emerged from their general slump
which lasted for over fortnight,
| will overhaul them.
| Newark, too, has taken brace
and perhaps Portsmouth will do the
same about finish In the league
that Will he long remembered. Al
least there will be three cornered
fight for the right to occupy secont
third and fourth positions. And New
ark and Portsmouth are not too fal
/, removed to get up and figure prom.
inently I'm that fight
Swell pitching halted the aspirinr
batters during the week and the aver
ages show a general shrinkage RED
Farrell the batting leader, is an ex.
ception TO the rule, however, ani
gained five points In the week. Chic
Williams, whose 110 hits number

Reilly. of Lima has established
league record already in stolen base
and before the season ends he vii
have placed mark that VIII doubt

close of the fifteenth week he ha'
stolen 67 times In 80 games. Finke

doubtless stand for many moons.

Parson Hit Hard.


"Bucknel Bilp Payaon, Digger
twrler who did such able work in
the Mansfield series. was the Lewis
selection. But Parson while he did
not feel at his best seemed to have
plenty until the Lanks started to
hit them, seemingly, nothing would
stop them. A walk to Brown start
ed the proceedings. Reynolds tried
to sacrifice but Parson made dive
and one handed catch of his Nttle
pop close to the plate. Heller, then
true to his name, opened lively
batting rally, with a single to center.
Lalller, Compton, Gowdy and Carter
all followed suit, each placing we'll
directed smashes into the gardens and
Parson flashed the G. q. ID, The call
of the Digger Jack Binns was an
swered by Hancock. When the
youngster ntered the fray Gowdy
was perched on second and Carter
on first with Lancaster four runs
to the good and but one out. Will
liams hit one that took bad hop
past Behrigner and both Lanks scored
after they had advanced notch on
Reilly's bad throw TO second. Justus
forced Williams and Wolfe tpol{

lead could be overcome. But the
Dlgfigers were finally equal to the
task although the. coming was long

every player on the Marion bench,
saved Mogan, had entered the game.
Runs Are Wasted
Behringer opened with a walk In
the first but Schrall hit to Heller
and fast dougle resulted. Wolfe
drew pass and Williams followed
with double TO right. Wolfe fell

reached third in safety but would

SECOND GAME.
Artistic effort features the first
game but the second one was moss
appropriately thriller when one
considers those closing scenes. Be-
ginning with Lancaster's rush toward
what seemed an easy victory the
game wore along and Diggers and
their admirers hoped against hope
that something would happen. The
hoping was worth while. too.
Justus i'm Again
Trotted out for the second time
In two days and to save the one
time champions from being showed
into third place, Justus, ascended
the hill. He got away lucky for the
most part in the early innings and
pulled out of some mighty deey
places by clever work and partly
by the peculiar base running and
and coaching INDUCED In by numerous
Diggers. But everything worked
around for the big finish, the kind
the one reads and hears about but
seldom sees.
