scored in the second inning, Waterloo's
only chance to score was in the third
and sixth innings. In the third. Shell

went to second on WEIGHS out. Alper-
man drove the ball to center field. but
Harris made a nice catch, retiring the
side. Harris also covered himself with
glory in the seventh, when he ran clear
back to the fence and pulled down a
terrific drive OFF Brennan's bat. In the
sixth inning Ashland lost credit for a
two-base hit when he was called out
at second after, having driven the hall
to the right field fence and apparently
beaten the throw to second.
Fast Fielding Saves Jays.

played a remarkable fielding game,
each fielder cutting of drives that
looked certain to be recorder as safe
hits. Lindberg was the only lucky
batter in the game. In the sixth in
ming. with no one down, Lindberg hit
high fly back of second base Mas
tiers, Fairchelds and Ashland went af-
ter the ball. Masters calling that he
had It. He didn't, however, and the
ball fell safely between the trio Of
f1elders. Lindberg was sacrificed to
second. but did not get beyond the key
stone sack, as Misunderstanding few
out to Fairchelds and Slattery struck
out. The score:
