gilt-edged ball in the tight places and hit
when hits counted for runs.
Denver began to slug the ball the minute
the game started, getting two doubles and
a single that netted two runs. After this
War got to working right and with the
exception of tho fourth, when he was
touched for three singles which resulted
in two runs made the Grizzlies hike for
the bench with monotonous regularity. At
that he did not strike out man. Neither
did the two Denver throwers and the re-
suit was that the fielders had plenty of
work.

he also mussed this up, putting Cassidy
on third, Lindsay on second and Dolan
on first. Luck was with Sanders for Nc
