First of Season.
II was the first no-hit performance
of a Toneka pitcher this season and.
although it was not the first no-hit
game of the league, it was the f1rst by
a Young pitcher just on the threSnolo
of mis- career. The only other game OF
its kind here was that hung up by
Koestner of Wichita on May when
he let the Savages down without
scratch.
Lambeth, however, pitched much
better game than the once youthful
Koestner. He struck out seven bats
men while Koestner only struck out
six. and he only walked two to koest-
ner's five. Koestner made only two
assists while Lambeth made three ana
started double play.
Few Features.
Aside from Lambeth's pitching,
there were few features to the game

third, Goodwin on second and Tyde-
man IN the right field garden did not
look bad Engle's presence in the in
field. his wide-awake leadership and
his stabilizing influence made the
team look more like real team than
it ever has. Also. Goodwin looked
or short and the switch seemed to i'm
prove his batting, as he got three
singles out of four attempts.
In some mysterious manner Engle
seems to touch off the spark of life
in all of the players and there was

day than has ever been shown.
