TEACHERS REFUSE 10 JET TIGERS WIN NORMAL SWEEPS SERIES Conway Team Annexes Third Victory from Ouachita, by Score
 of to ?.

Philadelphia, May 6.-The Arkan- sas State Normal School made a clean sweep of the series with Ouachita College here by taking the third game, to 2.
 The Tigers got away to a lead in the early innings, and kept the Tutors away from the registering place until the last round, when Kitchens, Ouach- ita's sniper, allowed brace of walks and several hits, which netted the ConWayites five tallies and a ball game. The Tigers couldn't do any thing with Coner Mathews offering in the last frame.
 It was spectacular battle until the ninth inning slaughter, being play ed in fast time and a high class of the national sport being given the fans. Errors were infrequent.
 Mathews pitched one of the best games of the season, walking only one man and allowing but seven bingles. Dutch Moore handled the big stick like a leaguer, getting four safetes out of five times at bat. Lowery also man ned himself well at bat, getting three hits.
 The Normal team will return to Conway tonight. They probably will open series of games with Cumber- land College at Clarksville next week.
