Gudger had everything that was neces-
sary to squelch the hard hitting visit
ors and he used it in such quantities

right arise. The visiting club is a
strong one and they are in the game
every minute of the time. If there are

leaving his footprints on the home

kicked in with one over short that
Erwin touched and was sorry that he
did, Hamilton counting amid the

McGill tried out Robertson's whip and
found it all to the good. strolling back
to the bench, and Hauser ended the
inning by going out, Clemens to Steele.
The home guard failed to count in

momentum seemingly as it neared
Stevenson and dropped over the left
field wall into the black jacks. while
Kirby trotted homeward and was re-

from the fans.
Erwin's double in the beginning of
the sixth was the only semblance of
a hit that Gudger had yielded thus far
in the conflict, but in the seventh the
enemy went right out and scored two
runs and made motions for time that
looked like more but Gudger put on
more moisture, added some more steam

grounded weakly to Jewell and was
tossed out by that popular little gent.
Malloy took up the pitching burden
for the Lawmakers in the seventh

seooting for third, which he made when
Rcbertson's throw went high, and then
headed for home but Brewster's peg
to Robertson was both swift and true
and the middle gardener was put to
sleep.
