It's true, like the other clubs, the
Maple Leafs and their brainy leader
gave the Tigers a battle in every game
and made them work overtime twice.
but each time the Bengals were a wee
bit better and that tells the tale.
Toronto managed to secure a couple
more hits than the locals yesterday. but
sometimes they don't count, and they
didn't yesterday. With the score even
up at two runs each in the ninth and
Lucky Sammy Smith in the box, the
Tigers decided it wal time for action.
in brief this is what happened: With
one gone, Kelly secured an infield hit.
That means he did some s~printing.
Captain Schlafly made "goo-goo' eyes
and talked with his hands in front of
Smith and walked. Gettman postponed
claiming the title of hero until some
other day, and flied to Mcdonald.
Bill Louden, who has been attending
strictly to business since the season
opened in a quiet and unassuming way,
saw the opportunity. He made the most
of il and he drove one with wings on 1t at
Vaughn, and it took the former Prince
ton Varsity star by surprise. With
Kelly it was different. He was wide

scored from second and when Vaughn
finally shot the ball to Vandy, Kelly
had touched the plate and Louden was
credited with a second single.
The victory marked the eighth straight
for the Tigers, and was the eleventh out
of the dozen they have played since the
season opened.
Gettman scored the first count in the
second. He walked and went to second
on Louden's out. Jimmy smashed a
grounder at Mullen, who booted it, and
reached third. When Agler skied
to Delehanty in deep left, Herr Gett-
man registered.

of the Canucks. drove the ball into the
bleachers in the fourth for a homer, and

Louden demonstrated his value in the
fifth. He singled, stole second and con
tinued to third when Vaughn muffed
vandy's throw at second. Mullen
made a pretty stop of Crisp's bad boun-
der, and tossed to first for the out.
While he was performing In that man

again the master of the situation.
