game where base hits were needed, too,
for the final score was 10 to and the

decai Brown, the famed three fingered
twirler, had to be called to the rescue
again in the eighth inning to save the
game.
Ed Reulbach began the pitching for
Chicago. and though going a his wild
est pace. he was lucky enough to es-
cape serious trouble through FIVE in
nings Then Lew Richie became in
volved in such deep distress in the
eighth inning that Brownie had to be
summoned to get the third man out
BY this time the Cubs had only two
runs lead. and Brownie. just as he has
done so many times in the past, stopped
the Reds rally and held them down un-
til the game was over.

booked to play the Hammond Athletic
association here next Sunday. Ham
mond expects to try out about five
pitchers, two semi-pros from Chicago,
and Mcmahon, Humpfer and Rhode.
three local boys Hudson and Cleg-
horn are both to try out for catching.
Fowler is to be first. Schmidt on
second, and Mol is expected to be in
Hammond play third. Pearson, Nc
Cay and Nornish are figured to be in the
field.

the Hammond Athletic association in
action. the game next Sunday should
prove doubly attractive.
