BY REuBEN A. LEWIS

Registering his eighth successive vic
tory, Wee Willie Prough bested the
clever Kroh in a iereely fought battle,
to /. While the opposing twirler proved
effective with men on bases, the Lookouts
were completely baffled by the slants of
the league leading twirler. Besides
snatching the battle from the eager Moo
gans. Prough drove in the winning run
after several thrilling innings with the
count a deadlock
More brilliant slabbing has seldom been
witnessed. While Southpaw Kroh was
solved more frequently than the elon-
gated Baron, the portwheeler tWirled
superbly. When the Barons threatened
to squirt to the lead, Kroh slapped on
the brakes and pulled out without de-
merit. The more remarkable was the
victory when 1t is considered that the duo
of counters were scored with two Barons
down
Scintillating with every deceptive inn
plement needed to win, big Bill Proush
was master of the situation. Depending
upon the backing of his mates to con-
tinue his winnings, the Lookouts were
given sufficient opportunity to solve his
offerings. But when the situation grew
dangerous, Prough commanded superhu-
man cunning and retired unscathed.

KINGS Sensational Catch

A dazzling defense held the score down
to three runs. The most sensational stab
of drive witnessed this season was eff
fected by the Noogan centerfielder, King.
With a victory depending upon the re-
covery of Ellams short hoist past sec
ond. King speeded onward with remark
able deftness, trapped the ball at his shoe
tops in full speed and retained the ball
after a series of somersaults. The most
generous demonstration of the afternoon
was accorded the brilliant fielder.
But the Noogan gardener was not
alone in performing brilliant feats on
the defense. Fred Graft gathered in
seeming impossible drives and pegged with
remarkable accuracy to the first sack.
Besides covering an acre of territory, his
leaping catch of McDonald's sacrifice
brought forth applause. For the Barons
Roy ELAN featured In the field. While
the youngster bobbled, his clever work
around the shortfeld was wonderful

First Score Recorded

After the Lookouts had filled the bases
in the first with one out. Prough faced
the desperate situation with light heart
and retired the two following batsmen
with ease. Southpaw kroh was an enig-
ma to the first two Barons, but Nc
Donalds keen optics endowed him with a
walk. Knsely, feared by the battery, was
walked Intentionally. But Mcbride proved
the more dangerous for a siashing drive
to center sent Mcdonald home with the
first run.
The 'Noogans were mystiied by Prough
in the first four rounds, but, with two
out In the fourth, Birmingham threatened
to swell the count. With the usual two
out, McGilvray was walked. Mayer hit
fierce drive to Walsh and the midget
failed to hold it. With the runners alert
for the hit and run operation, ELAN re-
sponded with seeming Texas Lacquer.
King gained a fast start and by his brill
liant catch downed the side.
The Lookouts came back in the fifth.
After Williams famed Street doubled to
left field. Prough tightened up, struck
out Kroh but hit King. Flick, who hit
merrily before the trial, was whitfield for
the third out. In this inning the only
strike-outs were registered.

'N0ogans Tie Score

Chattanooga deadlocked the struggle in
the sixth Walsh hit a slow grounder
past third. ELAN fielded the slow rap
in fine fashion and just missed Walsh
after the splendid recovery. Attempting
to play the "hit and rum Elberfeld
missed Prough's darting curve and Mayer
pegged Walsh out at second. The pilot
then responded with a safe drive to left
field. Just as ELAN switched to second
to handle the play. William raped the
ball through short stop and Elberfeld
gained third. On CRAFTS sacrifice fly to
Mcbride. Elberfeld marked the tieing run.
Prough retired the visitors in order dur
ing the next two sessions, while the Bar
ons drew away from the tie in the eigth.
With the proverbial two out, Mayer hit
a hard drive over Johnson's head, which
went for three bases after a slight mis-
judgment. After lengthy consultation,
General Street decided to pass ELAN
to venture fate with Prough who had
previously singled twice. But Wee Will
lie" continued his deadly work with the
cudgel and singled through second base
Thus the game was captured, for Prough
did not yield another hit in the ninth.
