LOCALS WALLOP
LOVELAND4 TOO

Three hundred and fifty fans were
present yesterday to see the Smudg-
ers trounce the Loveland Greys to the
tune of 4 to 0. II was a good game,
in some respects. and was immensely
enjoyed by a large number of the
veteran rooters who saw more to
make a noise over than any game so
far this season.
The score, however, is not indica-
tive of the strength of the two teams
as the visitors had no license to make
the score as close from their playing
and then again Grand Junction did
not win the shut-out score. A raw
decision on the part of the umpire
plainly robbed the Loveland Crews
from one score and succeeding events
proved this. The decision was on
ball and strikes and there appeared
to be but little excuse for mistaking
the ball for a strike when ii was so
wide and low as to be not even doubt
full. This made the second out and
when the third man flew out to Fos-
ter in left field the team was retired
with no runs. However, with a man
on third, as was the case. il would
have been an utter impossibility for
the right fielder 10 have thrown the
base runner out at home and conse-
quently nothing could have prevented
DoYeland from scoring except the
poor decision of the umpire. Grand
Junction has a crowd of fans that
plainly like fair play and the re-
mainder of the game was devoted to
roasting the umpire instead of root
ing the players. Few decisions like
the one rendered yesterday can be
given and retain the confidence of
the visiting teams that they will re-
ceive square deal when they come
to Grand Junction

When Hughie Jennings took his cage
of tigers into Philadelphia and turned
them loose at Shibe park they spoiled
the Athletics chances of equaling the
worlds record for number of games
won successfully. Connie Mack's
bunch had annexed 10 straight when
the Detroit team reached the Quaker
city. They were playing like house
afire and wanted to win seven more to
tie the record. OF course they would
liked to have had eight and beat the
mark
But the willy Jennings had differ
ent idea and when his Tigers were
through with the first game the Mack.
men had suffered the worst defeat of
the year for them. Detroit only made
10 hits "Nuff ced''
When Providence was in the Ma
tional league In 1884 the team won 20
straight games. which still stands as
the record for big leagues. They won
the league championship. Lancaster.
in the Atlantic league in 1897. won 81
consecutive games, which is the minor
league record as well as the record for
all organized ball.
While Philadelphia was piling up
victories the st. Louis Browns were
doing about as well with defeats. Out
of % games played the St Louis
bunch. under the leadership OF Jack
O'Connor, lost 90 won four and tied
one. The losses weren't in consecu-
tive order, however. so the Browns
had little consolation.
Back In 1899 In the American asso-
citation race the Louisville club lost 26
straight games before they won. You
might not believe It in these days of
Wagner. Chance. Leach. Adams and
Gibson. but In 1890 the Pittsburg team
went without victory for 90 games.
In 1906 the Boston American league
team lost 20 straight
The first year Detroit won the

A blazing pile of cedar poles in a

while alighting from the train at the
