today for a series Of seven games,
and local fans hope that the
Tigers will take a brace and take
the series. Although Nick Is re-
puted to have a classy aggregation
the Bengals will be playing on
their home lot; besides they are
about due to win few.
Yesterday was a poor day in
which to play ball. Rain and
hail fell throughout the struggle.
Maybe this was why the Tigers,
even to steady Lou Nordyxe, fail

all events, they were off color.
and the Beavers won 6 to 3.
Kid Kurfess twirled for the
Tigers and pitched good ball, too;
but the aforesaid support was not
strong enough for him to win.
Dode Brinker, lawyer, and base
ball gardener, started In to hurl,
but wearied of the game and the
weather, and let Frenchy Ocean
nierre succeed him. Those who
expected Frenchy to blow up were
disappointed. He was right there
and the Beavers won.
