Special to Times Republican.
Cedar Rapids, June 16-The Bunnies
made it three straight over the visiting
Ansons by capturing Tuesdays game
with the final count to 8, and by doing
so sneaked up to within half game
of the first division.
Errors, which had featured promi-
nently in the two preceding games,
were not so numerous in the Tuesday
encounter, and except for the one made
by Bill Ludwig and the bad heave by
Lindberg they did not feature particu-
larly in the scoring of the final game
of the series. In fact, it might almost
be said that only the Ludwig wobbie
had any direct effect on the final result
of the encounter as the one by Lind
berg did not have any direct bearing on
the final outcome as it gave the Bunnies
their final count which was not needed.
Richards Shakes Lineup.
Manager Richards made desperate
effort to land the coveted single victory
and in his efforts gave his batting
order a shaking up prior to the game.
Lndberg, former Bunny. was promoted
from sixth place to the lead-off posi-
ton. DeLongy was dropped to fifth and
Woody was set in just above Engman.
However. even this did not bring about
the desired results. The Arson leader
also placed Tonneson on the firing line
with instructions to deliver II possible
It was not possible, altho the man
with the funny name had the Rabbits
pretty much at his mercy the most OF
the way punched hits proved his I'M
doing. Four were crowded into the
sixth frame netting three counters, and
three more of the total of ten came in
the eighth, giving the locals one more
tally to the good and icing the en-
counter
Hamilton Tries New Pitcher.
Manager Hamilton gave Joe Berger
a try-out as mound decoration and
said Joseph got away in fairly good
! style altho he was in danger in the
second and third innings. leaving three
| men on the base lines in the former
and two in the latter.
! In addition to soaring Hamilton
enough in these two frames so that he
hurried rescue finger into the bull
pen to warm UP, the new moundsman
| forced one of the three runs marked
ag inst him when he issued brace OF
wild pitches after Lindoerg had I'M
corked double in the seventh, these
two sending Indy" home.
