not allowed the ballot. There is no use
in talking about patching things up.
The services yesterday morning re-

KEoKUK HIT BALL HARD
Alien Was off Form in First Four
Rounds. But Then Settled
Down and Pitched Good

Bundy, the sturdy LaHarpe pitcher,
worked ike a whirlwind during the
first four innings OF the Keokuk-La-
Harpe indoor baseball game at the Y.
II. c. \. gymnasium last evening, and
then blew up From then on the work
OF the keokuk slnggers was crime.
They nit his offering 10 every corner
OF the wall and scored almost at will.
Twenty hits we're made in FIVE in
nings. which netted Is runs. The final
count vas Is to :.
The first four innings were dark
ones for the Keokuk tribe. Bundy was
invincible, while Allen. the elongated
keokuk HEAVIER, had his troubles in
pushing the pill across the rubber. He
was wild and was hit oportunely. the
Illinois boys counting FIVE times in
these early rounds. Allen then settled
down and pitched good ball during
the remaining rounds
Bundy gave evidence of being :,
great pitcher. but he fell for the beat
ing through failure to mix them up.
The LaHarpe pitcher was possessed
OF q good upshoot and had speed OBJ
tanned through a short arm swing
His control. as far as is attained in in
door baseball. was faultless, and here
in lay his weakness. The ball was
soon located as it broke the heart of
the pan, and more harder hits were
made than has been secured off any
OF the weaker church league pitchers
this season The sphere was pounded
with such violence that it fat
tened itself against the end walls.
When hitting the side wall the pellet
earronled ike billiard ball from rub
Der banks. and it proved very elusive.
When it came to romping around
the bases Paul King was in class
BY his lonesome. once he pulled off a
home run, second time he got three
bases, and innumerable times he pill
fered bag. Paul got five hits. leading
the sluggers in the melee.
