Uncertainty is Shown.
Baseball is queer proposition.

base Ddll n queer proposition.
You can figure your dope all you
please. out it's seldom it will work
out. one team can beat another in
every start. but will bow before
some other club in almost all their
games. Then the first loser will turn
around and defeat the winner of the
second series.
This little old proposition is illus
trated in the clashes between the
Renders and the Grand Rapids
clubs In the first II games staged
between the two clubs. Grand Rapids
took all OF them. Yesterday in the
18th game of the season the locals
managed to down the Grand Rapids
crew.
Early in the season Dayton had
the edge ON the locals and won six
out of seven games. During the
present season the local have won
tour out of eight games played with
Dayton.
Springfield had a club that could
win against Dayton and Grand
Rapids. All during the season the
Reapers found these two clubs easy.
But when it came 10 playing South
Bend at Spring brook park they were
helpless and dropped all seven games
staged on the local park. At Spring
field they did better. but here no
matter what kind of baseball they
played. they were never able 10
shove over a victory.
The Benders yesterday climbed
back 10 the 500 class and will make
a big effort TO stick in this first di-
vision. Bowman is slated to go
against the Rapids bunch this after
noon and it would not he surprising
to see Abe bring home the bacon.
Hill is due on Friday
After the Grand Rapids series the
Benders will journey aver TO Muske-
gon where a field day will be heiu
on Saturday Various rents are to
be staged and the question of speed
Will be settled. Collins, Tydeman
and Bashang are entered in the 100
yard dash and also will take part in
the circling of the bases. Bowman
is expected 10 try his hand at fungo
hitting.
Following the three games at
Muskeson, the Benders Will journey
TO Terre Haute and Evansville for
three-game series. All four of the
clubs 10 be met in the series are in
the second division and there is a
big chance Of the Benders doing
some good work on the present trip.
