game of the series from Buffalo yes
terday by a score of 9 to S. but the
victory does not bring any great
amount of credit TO the local team for
the defeat of the Bisons was due pri-
marily to the ineffcctiveness OF their
hurlera-
However. there were bits of playing
done by the locals during the course
OF the battle that did warrant praise

stances when knabe wobbled. and
timely batting brought about the re-
suit.

Donahue, in the meantime, was hav-
iIG an up-and-down time OF it. Fast
heldinG assisted him materially sew

roles. However, knabe's juggle of
Hummelrs wallop in the second fol-
lowed by the managers bad throw to
