All the boys are now getting read dy
! for the death struggle with the Red
| skins. The Indians have d great many
scalps attached to their belt, and they
expect to tie up another one on Sun
day. All the boys who are expected
to be selected for this game state that
they will win Sunday. even though
their opponents are supposed to be
adept at inside ball playing
Lefty Smith of the Bakers made a
dandy good catch on Sunday. With
Shuttleworth on second Van Matre
lined one just inside the foul line
Smith by a wonderful burst of speed
just got to it. Lou was on his way
home at the time.
Spec Motta and Billy Lurton Ger
tainly caught some game. Both of
these, the kid and the olster. were
after everything. Spec hesitated on
one. and then ran to the stand and
nabbed it, Billy got one over by third.
and made attempts at two others in
the same neighborhood.
Zack certainly beat Spec out of a
hit in the second. Eddie didn't stop
or loaf on the way to first. but Zack
came in fast and scuttled him at that
station.
Van Matre made a neat catch of
divers hard drive in the fourth. Van
dropped two fly balls in this game.
This is the first time that Van has
ever Deen Known 10 90 SuCn d tnlHS.
He is usually one of the surest tielders
in the league. Neither helped in scor-
ing. SO Van feels all right about it.
Big Olsen is still cutting up around
first. He made several good pick-ups
during Sundays game, but went to
sleep with the ball in his hand with
a runner on third, who quickly took
advantage of the lapse to beat it for
home The Big-Un looks good. He
hasn't done any batting Yet, but will
get his eye on the ball soon.
Elsey had good fielding day,
though his throwing was a little off.
He made great stop of Bicker's
grounder in the fourth in deep short.
He didn't have time to get his bal

disastrous. Both Lewis and Bombay
hurled good ball, but each was trife

be the stellar attraction with willows.
Edo connected for two safeties in three
trips to the plate, while Baby"
