The Broncho Pitcher, in Fine
Form, Is Feature Of Con
test With BiSbee.

Again Ables is all that his name i'm
plies. Pitching ball like loose
5ointed grocery clerk wrapping up
packakges on Saturday night, the tall
one from down San Antonio way was
easily the bright particular of the
Sunday finale of the Bisbee series
Like one Honus Wagner, Of piratical
fame, Ables is good to look at when
in battle formation. Seemingly as
careless as a country school boy. the
big pitchers work was the essence Of
athletic perfection Winding up like
a washerwoman Wringing clothes by

enough curve on it to make a bush

Back would go the ball to be caught
in the big, grimy glove, and zipi blapi
back it would come for quick deliv-
cry, mister Ables wearing a broad
gagged grin in the meantime.
Such a ball as that of the Sunday
afternoon session is as rare as a day
in June in these parts of the known
baseball world Both clubs were on
edge and working like real and not
fictitious 1eaguers. There was none of
the amateurish tactics which have
marked so many games in the prickly
pear belt this season Instead of hold
ing onto the ball until a single had
been stretched into a triple the play
ers on both teams managed to separate
themselves from the pellet at the earli-
est possible moment and the game
moved merrily along in gig time and
was finished long before the usual
Sunday evening supper hour. Aside
from Ables's splendid work as the
finger and batter for the local club,
Graham's steady work on second was
particularly noticeable. He accepted
seven changes and booted but one, a
high one from Stovalrs bat, which he
spilled trying to field The captain Of
the Maroon club looked as good as
gold on second and his work was con-
sistently good throughout the game.
Bisbee scored first III the first, when
Ables planted a bender in Johnson's

SATURDAYS GAME:
Downey the Star of Swatfest
at Washington Park; Big
Hits Numerous.
His NUn1orOuS.

No fond and doting parent ever
welded a hickory switch with more
telling effect than the Mavericks swung
their wagon tongues in the Saturday
game at Washington Park. It was a
swatfest Of the old time rounder games,
a slaughter that delighted the patrons
of the sport, for many a horsehide lost
its heart when the bat Of Red
Downey, Flick and Wright landed full
on its nose
Downey made the longest hit of the
game. perhaps the longest on record
for the local grounds when he stepped
up on a curved ball delivered by The
former Maverick pitcher and sent it
skyward out beyond the confines of
the racetrack. He was back on the
players bench before the rightfelder
had dug down into the alkali dust and
recovered the spheroid. That was not
all Downey did, for ne also touched up
Gill for a double and a single during
the afternoons entertainment, while
MS running mates hit the ball all over
the lot
Bisbee was not backward about
treating Mckay to a similar dose of
five times to bat and the Miners dug
while the local boys managed tC ne
gotiate for IS at times when they
counted, and won the game.
Bisbee started the display Of smash
ing the sphere and kept it up for three
innings before the local boys could
take advantage of their many oppor-
