DAWSON WON SERIES
TOOK TWO OF THREE GAMES
FROM COLUMBUS Y. NJ. C. A.
BY Listless Playing Dawson Gave
Visitors First Game, and Won
the Second and Third

In the opening game OF the series
of three between the locals and the
Columbus Y. NJ. G. A. boys the Daw-
son boys were listless and open
heartedly gave the game by costly
errors to the visitors.

Batteries: Columbus, Parsons and

The second game was where the
Dawson boys fattened their batting
averages in a regular track meet.
while Slappey held Columbus to
three scattered hits. The locals won
the game in the first inning, when
seven runs were scored off Turner.
Columbus made three runs in the
third inning, after which both teams
frightened up and played pretty ball.

And on Wednesday both teams
were fully determined to win the
rubber" Both had considerably
strengthened their teams by two men.
The home boys had secured the old
Tech and Georgia State League star,
Goat" Holiday, to play the initial
cushion and another star performer
from the Gate City, HARRISON, to play
the short field. From the start the
game was hard fought, though for
the home boys, after Dumas and
Barnard were outs in the first inning
Holiday singled and later scored on
hits by Crouch and HARRISON; then
Cooke retired the side by ballooning
to deep center.
For the next three innings both
pitchers were working well, but in
the third inning Struppa had the mis-
IOTIuu6 VI 1SCI1nS LIS pitching manu-
get in the way of Barnard's line
drive, and he was forced to- retire in
favor of Mr.. Parsons, who pitched
the opening game for the visitors.
Putting in a fresh pitcher didn't wor-
ry Dozier, though they did score
their first run in the fourth by a
single and an error. He held them
to one hit during the remainder of
the game, always keeping up his reg
ular number of strike-outs. Par
sons, too was working well, as he
kept the boys hitting chem in the
.fielders hands. The home boys play
ed in that 'never-give-up" spirit. and
in the last half of the ninth, with the
score tied 1 and 1, HARRISON led off
with hit to short, who retired him
at first by perfect fielding. 1t was
then that Steve Cooke, famous since
his pinch hit in the Montezuma Sc
ries, came to the rescue with a time
ly hit. He then stole second and af-
ter Tebeaut hit pop to the pitcher
Same Old Monahan delivered the
goods with a clean single, scoring
Cooke, and also breaking up the old
ball game.
