working in easy but effective style
the Tigers fond very little difficulty
in retaliating Upon the Diggers fol-
their victory over them before the
big crowd at the opening game on
Wednesday. A. just one stage of the
contest did affairs look rather dubi'
ous from a local viewpoint, that be-
ing when the visitors rolled up two
runs in the second session. The home
favorites quickly tied up the score
and the contest from that time on
was simply walSaway Mansfield, 3,
Marion 2, a lop sided game that was
however filled with better ball than
both teams placed on display on
Wednesdays 10 z battle.
This famous "Pretzel Battery" b.
b., not however the Bronx Battery
but Hezekial Breymaier and Fritzen-
burg Bucholz, found no more trouble
in disposing of the aggressive visitors
than in tie opener Of the season nc
Marion on Friday OF last week
Mansfield piled up four less runs than
in that contest but margin OF
runs will win any game Bucholz
was good, Bres maier was good and
the other seven athletes were lapor-
lug just as efficiently and effectively
aud for that reason the game develop
ed into a fast going procession.
Marion also got away with the
same battery that performed in the
opening game at Marion and their
work was just as consistent. Zmich

the visitors. This man Duggan, sup
posed TO be recruit picked up from
the backlots of Marion, bore such a
remarkable resemblance to Zmich
