TILIKUMS MAKE SIX
SCORES IN ONE FRAME

The Seattle TiIiIxums strayed
into town yesterday for the first
time this season; but for utter
strangers they made themselves
much Mt home and when the faith
full fans and fanettes made q dive
for the rattlers the score stood 9
to 2, our pets holding the deuce.
Sad story though il is to relate,
the half-dozen runs gathered by
the opposition came in one period,
the fifth.
There we're divers and sundry
reasons for the display. For one
thing, Kid Kurfess had nothing
on the ball visible to the naked
eye, nor to the Seattle stickers.
Reason Number Two: Messrs.
Fries, Ruell and McMullin con-
tributed large juicy boobies at
the inopportune moment. This
mixed with a dash of ossified
sconce. will explain the how and
why, and McMullin caused be-
wilderment by a perfect peg into
the spinal vertebrae of Lee Strait
when two were morgued and 1t
was perfectly apparent that the
runner could easily be thrown out
at first.
Kid Kurfess started out
very well, and for four in
nings was accorded support
that could not be complain
ed of in the big leagues.
Then--weH, it happened.
kurfess hied himself from
the fray in the fatal fifth,
and Iron Man Joe. who had
already pitched Saturday and
Sunday, beat it to the slab
and heaved rings around
the Tealeykums.
In the third stanza Miles Netzel
beat out an infield bounder and
aided and abetted by a bad Mil
toss took second. Fries went to
the undertakers, via Raymond and
Jackson, but Miles was at the
three-quarter post. Two were
down when McMullin singled a
genuine pinch hit to center. Our
first score. Observe and heed.
We only made one more.
The next one came in the sixth.
Dell plunked Keller, and Neigh
bors copied Angle A on four out
side heaves. Ruell came through
with home-run hoist-in Seattle
which Wilson speared. Keller
made third on 1t. Then Clyde
and Cy pulled the double pilfer,
and, thanks to Mr.. Cadman drop
ping the horsehide, Kel counted.
And there was no more for the
Cats.
(Bud) Weiser Dell, the strike
out king, hurled for Dug's De-
mons. A big league scout was
reported to be watching him, but
it did not cause Mr.. Dell to shine
up any brighter. He displayed
very little. but had good luck and
support. Some very savage cracks
were taken at his offerings. He
did get three hits, much to the
surprise of Cupid Dugdale, who
was on decA.
Barker Cadman looks to be
one of the best backstops In the
league. He uses his noodle be-
hind the bat and seems to guess
uncannily when baserunners are
going TO try for second. In adj
dition he can peg, and hit In the
pincheG. He secured three swats
yesterday.
Netzel ad Fries made their first
appearance on the local lot as
Tigers. Miles, who looks thinner,
played fairly good ball, but Fries
put up one of the poorest exhibi-
tions we can remember of.
Lou Nordyke served as his
''umps." Lou got along
fairly well save in the sixth
when Tealey Raymond staged
little crabfest, which should
have insured his dismissal
from the premises.
George Mil looks much the
same. He was out of luck yester-
day, however, failing to hit and
making Seattle's only error. He
did make some good stops, never
