The Islanders trounced Dubuque
soundly yesterday afternoon and moro
than evened up for the two consecu-
tive defeats suffered in the upriver
city. The final count was to l and
the one run was given to the visitors
just TO make them feel like coming
out for the game today. Frank Lakaff
did the twirling and showed the best
form of the year thus far. 1t looks
as though he is going to do just as he
has done innumerable times before;
that is, develop his real fol m in the
middle of the season and wind UP in
blaze of glory. Yesterday he was the
Frank Lakaff who did the great work
for the Islanders in their struggle for
the pennant last year and Dubuque
was at his mercy all the time. The
enc run made by Manager Buelow's
aggregation would have been cut off
had it not been for Slattery's dropping
throw from second that would have
retired the. side before the runner
crossed the plate Stats took the ball
on the bound, however and failed to
hang on. No error could be charged
to him because it was on an attempted
double play and the man at second
had already been retired The lone
run of the visitors came in the last
inning
knock Cover on Ball.
In the second inning the Islanders
went wild at the bat and before they
could be stopped six hits and seven
runs had been made and two more

drove one 10 Lerchen on first who
threw wild 20 the plate and allowed
the first score. Davidson followed
with hit to center. scoring Kohl and
Manusch followed with a bingle TO left
that sent Vogel across the rubber. At
his juncturc Pitcher Ray was sent to
cover and Miller was tTotted out to
fill the gap in tho visitors defense.
It took him considerable time Ia stop
the slaughter Slattery drove one
through second base that was too hot

home With the, sacks still covered,

Backoff backed off and got under it /
only to drop it when it came down. /
Davidson and Manusch scored on that |
and the bases were still full with the |

filled when Kelly received a walk. A /
