Gives Milan Homer and
Sends Three Runs
Over Plate.
BY SENATOR"

When Joe Jackson, the Naplanders'
slugging gardener. took his time about
rising from the ground in the sixth
session and then set off le!surely
enough after "Zeb" Milan's slam to that
section OF the bailiwick, the Maps were
declared non compos mentis, pluribus
unum, or anything like that sounding
highbrow and hopeless. II allowed Mi
Ian to circle the sacks, following Dix
lie" Walker and KID" Foster over the
an. Three runs right there and the
final score stood to s, so you may see
pust how important that move of
Jackson's was.
Until that sixth session Blanding. the
Maps big twirler. was doing well
enough: though two runs had been
sixth was nightmare to the mastodon-
ic youth, and he never recovered. He
had to take a rest later on in favor OF
Baskette, likely looking lad.

against, was one of resounding thwacks.
Milan and Cunningham tore off homcrs,
Cunninghams clearing the barrier In

ether. much to the delight Of the shiv-
ering bugs.
Buddy" Ryan cracked a triple to
center in the second and scored on
Peckinpaugh's taree-base knock to the
fence in right. However, the Nationals
quickly tied the score in their half,
though they should have had at least
two tallies. Cashion strolled and was

walked and when Dixie" Walker was
passed. 1t forced Cunningham over the
dish. Moeller flied to Jackson. ending
the frame.
Foster battered one through Bland

the pill in fine style. RIPPING a safety
