The Witches got away with the third
Of the series when they broke the Sec
ond inning tie with run in the eighth.
There was something doing all of the
time in those first two sessions and the
bill was pure variety.
Cooley marched his pitchers past the
Witches in a row. Each were allowed
a round or so of ammunition to start
with. They did not get to shoot all
they had, however, for the boss found
it expedient to replace them with
strong men when they came to bat, In
fact, Sir Richard was pulling off some
managerial stunts.
wichita got two in the first and it
was necessary to cover up that lead
Immediately. Wooley hit and Reilly
next but Dick trotted out Big Cy.
Isbell bounded out from first with the
lineup in a second-but Cooley had
changed his lineup-just that instant
and Reagan would follow.
Landreth drove fly out to Middle
ton, sacrificing Wooley home. Claire
muffed Reagan's grounder and Reilly
scored. Boles walked and WEIGH hit,
scoring Thomson. Kerns then was hit
by the pitcher, forcing in Reagan for

Harris. But Schmidt hit into snappy
double play, Westerzil to Shaw TO
Isbel and the inning was over
Who was that pitcher? Oh,-Durham
Durham from Kansas City and
Louisville Umpire Spencer just couldn't
see that he had 'em over and the Sox
wolloped them when he split the plate
He allowed only four hits, and walk
and hit a batter that inning: Perhaps
Isben will use him again today;
still he pulled him out when he threw
three balls straight to the first hitter
in the second, and Schakleford finish
ed the game.
But it had to be done for the Witches
opened with two circles. Belden hit and
went to second when Wright, who had
replaced Harris, threw wide to first to
catch him and Landreth missed 1T. He
was sacrificed to third by Middleton
and scored after Claire struck out and
Hughes walked, when Hughes stole
second and WEIGH dropped the ball.
Isbell then hit, scoring Hughes.
In the second for Wichita, Koerner
got on by Welch's error, Shaw struck
out and Durham walked. Beldon hit,
and Claire walked. Then WEIGH
muffed another grounder from Hughes
and Belden scored. There the thir-l
Cooley pitcher, Jackson, was showed
onto the mound Isbell flew out, and
Jackson stayed until Kunkle was sent
in to hit for him in the eighth after
which Kaufman tossed a few. In tho
Cooleysox half, Durham gave Wooley
three balls and Schackleford furnished
the pass. That was the fatality for
Wooley run on down to second and
scored on an overthrow of Middleton
to third.
with the runs five and five until the
eighth, the Witches took the game
without another hit. Isbell did it by

sacrificed to third and then stealing
home where Kerns dropped the ball
For the Cooleysox the game was over
in the second so far as runs were con-
cerned. Several times they threatened
but only for a moment.
