loff-side whip of Lefty Lorenzen Satur-
iday. The three blows and promen.
AIDES did not come punched, and nary
tally tripped across to mar the
symmetry of the ovals decorating
| the left wall OF the Myrtle street
orchard. Lefty was as tame as a
dove OF peace, and his docility had the
effect Of making the foe wild. An
even dozen of 'em dashed the air in
frantic endeavors to poke back the pei
| let from the accomplished Mr.. Loren
zen, but like a desperate Desmond he
foiled them. The lank Mr.. Lorenzen
evened the nifty showing of his COM
ipetitor Grimes of the day before, and
thus made the task for Ned to accom-.
plish in finally deciding which to keep
all the more dificult.
Our side won the scrap with appar-
ent ease, scoring seven runs on five
|. hits, four errors, an assault and a
walk in the first three frames, and ad.
ded three more in the eighth on three
blows, walk and some active pedal
work The final count was 10 to nix.
The portion Of the engagement that
stands out head and shoulders, or one
might say at arms length, was the
effectiveness Of the Davenport youth,
who graduated to Ottumwa from the
Cente vile semi-pro club. Lorenzen
whitfield twelve in seven rounds, start
ling his death-dealing work in the front
frame with two strike-outs. In the
second, after Bachant doubled and
Kaucher took soft one in the plexus,
Lefty moved down Price, Fisher and
Moe in row. One ozone In the third
and fourth was followed by a pair in
the fifth after Price doubled. The sixth
was opened by Lorenzen with two
whiffs, and the twelfth strike-out came
as the opening stunt in the eighth.
The last hit on Lorenzen was Be-
! hant's second double in the seventh.
The game was devoid Of any unusual
fielding, except the stone-wall, defense
put up ry James Wall on Kahls three
man killing drives down third.
How our Side Scored.
Errors were largely responsible for
lO.sumwa's brace Of runs in the
i-itial round. Kensel fouled to Price,
and House Slapped with vengeance
tn ,ough Kahl. John stole second, and
Wall pulled up at first on Prices error.
House pranced to third when Bachant
sought to catch the Indian mapping,
and Wall stole second. Wise's drive to
Humbrecht was heaved high over Be-
chants bean and House was followed
closely home by Wall. Eddie was
inipped of second by Moe, and Moe
also handled Kline's tap. Schliebner
opened the second with four wide
ones and Mott got soaked in the neck.
Chapman skied to James, but Loren.
zen tore off beauty blow to left for
|schliebner's score. Nolt went to third
on the throw home, and registered
when Kensel's loft was muffed by
Fisher. House skied to Humbrecht and
Wallis daisy cutter to left paved the
|avenue from second for Lorenzen's
tally. With Kline dead in the third,
schliebner cracked beauty to center
and Nolt followed with vicious drive
to right. sending Dutch to third. Nolt
stole. and while Kaucher handled
Chapman's dump slowly, both scores
oozed across. Lorenzen was handled
by Kahl. Wise christened the eighth
with terriffic drive to Price and adj
vanced on Kline's out. Schliebner
walked and Eddie and Dutch pulled a
neat double steal. Young Nolt then
tore of his third drive OF the day and
his mates scored. Chapman lived on
g. fielder's choice, and Lorenzen poled
Nolt home with his second smack to
left. Chapman was killed at third on
the throw-in and Kensel ended the
Ottumwa activities with loft to
|Humbrecht
