Sporting Views
By the Editor

Jack Hill, Waterloo outfieider, broke
his leg in sliding into base during
Wednesdays game after he had driv-
en- out the hit that won for his team.
1t is said that he will be out of the
game for the remainder Of the season.
His loss will be felt pretty strongly
by Andrews. Hill's batting was right
at the 800 mark
! Despite the fact that Manusch laid
out triple that scored a run and
broke the tie in the ninth inning OF
yesterdays game at Cedar Rapids,
the Bunnies came back strong in their
half Of the final session and won the
game with two runs. The loss brings
the Red Sox down close to the 900
spot on the per cent column, not out

Keokuk series from the Pilots Thurs
day afternoon by a score of to 6.
Jimmy Scanlon was the man respons-
ibls for the defeat of the nome boys
when he dropped Marshall's easy fly
in the fifth. This would have been the
third out for the locals. After that
the visitors fell on Schenk for five
runs, taking the lead, to 4. The
Pilots tried hard to overtake the lead
but were unable, as both Whitaker
and Mccullough pitched alright ball,
allowing only one hit after the frs,
inning. Whitaker was a little wild
and Abbott jerked him after he had
walked two men in the fifth.
Wetzel was the hero of the fifth for
the Indians, he putting the ball over
the left field fence for nome run with
two men on the sacks. He also drove
in the last run with a triple in the
seventh. Il;
The game opened up and looked
like q walkaway for the Pilots when
