Keokuk had a merry lead over Wat
erloo up until the sixth inning of
Saturdays game but when the Jays
hoped on to heavy Jack Grogan's
mush-like curves in that frame, stuff
was off, the score being tied and two
more runs being piled over the rubber
in the eighth by the visitors. Grogan

night by Manager Manush. The pitch

goods, his obesity being hindrance
to better working ability.

coupled with wild peg to third base
by Martin helped Waterloo away
