IBy Des B. Kirk.

Newark, July 29.-(Special.) Bob
Hughes lost his own game at Wehrle
park, Thursday afternoon, when with
two out, the bases full and one score
the tieing one in-he walked Long
and forced I'm the winning run. Two
strikes and three balls had been call
ed on the big first sacker then Bob
heaved q low one and Long was sent
to first while Nally trotted across the
rubber with the count that broke up
one of the most exciting games staged
at the local ball pasture in many a
day.
Three times was Marion, the league
leader, allowed to take the lead and
three times the Molders tied up the
count and as a result of the see-saw-
ing was that the O'Day gang took the
first fall out of the Lewis brigade In
this, the first series the two squads
have met since the Newark aggrega-
ton was switched.
1t was a bitterly fought struggle
and towards the finish neither side
asked or expected quarter. As an
example of this runners had been al !
lowed throughout the game until IL
went to the extra inning class. Then
In the final round Lee Lemon, badly
crippled as he is, singled and asked
for a runner, but Lewis wouldn't stand
for a fast man on the paths. Lemon
had the pleasure of scoring the run
that tied and he was heartily cheereu
by the fans when he limped across
the home mat on Moves single.
1t was the first chance Manager
O'Day had to mix things with the
team that came from. Marion, and II
q mortal worked hard for victory II
was the new manager. knowing Col
hgan, Meehan, Reilly, Johnstone and
Weller as he did, these hitters Were
held well In check and the local
players were given a chance to study
the other hitters. Marion, on the
other hand didn't get much of hnt
on the Molders for the real hitters
of the club left the stick work tt
those who have fallen behind, and the
men who have been the weak hitter'
heretofore responded nobly.
While Hughes pitched nice ball, yet
he was wild and this wildness, besides
costing him the game let Newark have
her first score. Nally slugged to tn
right lot for q single when he mrs
faced the big HEAVIER, then Move wal
passed Kendall sacrificed ana Lons
struck out and the stone wall defens'
of the Diggers looked mighty strong
But the turning point came and oDa!
was walked, then Brown worked tn
twirler for four bad ones and Nall
scored. Lane wound up the fram
by hitting to Ayette who tossed o'Da'
out at second.
Fast work kept the run box close'
until the fourth, then the Digger
counted. Reilly grounded but Hum
mel walloped to the right garden 70
three bags. and when Johnstone sac
rificed to Nally. Hummel raced hom
with the tie-up run. In the eight
the visitors took the lead. Epler hi
to center and Meehan pounded
left. Then Nally fought the ball owe
the green and Epler raced for HON
and landed safely. Reilly and Hum
mel struck out and Johnstone lei
Meehan on third by grounding out
O'Day who made a pretty stop of tn
hard-hlt ball.
The fifth frame was fast one an
Hixon retired Hughes, Colligan an
Epler on strikes. Move and Kenda
went down to Hixon and Long WEI
: out to Epler who made a nice cate
of the drive.
Newark tied the score i'm the mint
