Slim Started Well
Salles went along famously FOR es
first five innings. He allowed four s...
but II so happened that three OF tn'1
we're for extra bases.
When the time came FOR hitting, 90.
ever. the Robins hit, and hit with feSr e
ish energy. Slim tried 70 bust ne -, -.

he might have done far better oy ~0''

He is fielding ike a streak, and wa.
far more important, he IS hitting -
ball Eard and often. He got three sc0
clean drives yesterday. -. l.
Buck Wheat got only one hlI y.

the game ne permitted only twenty-ly-
men 70 face him, and that Is n0''N'
along quite nicely, thank you. .r,,
Larry was aided by some spee'sssS,gis.s
