Three hits, combined with two passes, contributed by Weaver, netted four runs and these proved enough to sew up the game, as Spitballer Robertson held the visitors on his hip and kept them unacauainted with the plate. the score being to O.
 Up until the sixth Weaver pitched a steady game, not allowing a semblance of a hit, and it began 70 appear as if he would come near repeating the stunt he pulled off In New Orleans of holding the local crowd to one bingle.

BarOns Get Busy

After Covington had gone out on grounder to second. Pete Knisely singled to right, registering the first Baron safety. Stewart followed at the bat and, after two strikes had been chalked up, he landed on top of the fence to the right of the score board and instead of bound ing over fell back inside. But as 1t was the Baron center fielder secured three bases on the hit and brought Knisely in with the initial tally. Magee was given a pass. Ellam followed with a neat sac rlfice to the pitcher, Stewart scoring and Magee going to second. Thinking that Robertson would be an easy out, Weaver purposely walked Tragesser. but the Baron heaver upset his calculations by hitting into right field for two bags. SCOT ing Magee and Tragesser Mcdonald grounded to Bluhm for the third out.
 This ended the scoring, as in the next inning Jim Bagby replaced Weaver on the firing line, and succeeded in holding the Barons to one hit in the remaining two rounds they were at the bat.
 Both teams had several other luscious opportunities to count, but these were either thrown away or killed by fast field ing.
 Outside of the first round the Pelicans were moved down in order in every ses- sion up until the eighth, when Robertson walked one man and allowed another to single. In the first the Baron finger was rather unsteady and two hits were raked from his delivery.

Weaver Rather Wild

Although Weaver did not yield hit until the sixth, he issued five bases on balls during the first five rounds and the only failure of the Barons to hit in the pinches kept down the score.
 Both in the fourth ard fifth the local team got men on bases, but were un- able to bring them across.
 It was in the fourth that Weaver be- gan to get wobbly. Marcan opened and was given a pass to first. With the in field drawn in for a sacrifice, Coving- ton hit hard bounder to shortstop and Barbare threw him out at first, Starr taking the toss. Knisely was purporsely assed, four consecutive bad balls be- ing served to him, but was forced Ht second by Stewart.

 infield out by Robertson landed him on third, and prospects of the locals SCOT ing looked roseate, especially as the head of the batting order was coming up. McDonald was also walked and fol- lowed up with a steal of the keystone.
