MARSHALLTOwN, Iowa. Aug. H.
Following Bierman's disastrous de-
feat on Monday, Boyle slipped in an
other new twirler yesterday-Cooper,
new to the Keokuk team but not to the
Central association-and the AnsonS
romped on him the same as they did
Bierman the day before. only harder.
and In the final count Keokuk was
shut out for the second time, 8 to 0.
When Cooper was biffed sky high,
First Baseman Giffin was sent In to
stem the tide. Gifiin in former years
was considered good pitcher and
he was going pretty good yesterdaJ.
but after wrangle with Umpire Bush
over a decision, was ordered from the
grounds by the jumps.
Boyle was not going to waste his
good pitchers on game that hal
degenerated into farce. SO he made
another shift in the lineup and sent
Second Baseman swick, also a form
er twirler, into the box for the rest ct
the game, and Swick held the An.
sons scoreless in the sessions over
which he presided.
After securing an Introductory run
In the second frame, the Ansons had

Terrific walops combined with four
costly errors by the tribesmen, was
responsible for seven runs.
SIattery, who beat the Indians ou

again an enigma to Boyle's braves.
He allowed but four scattered hits,
