BARRING one bad inning keiser
pitched good ball in the opening eN-
hibi1ion Sunday. Torkelson, on the
other hand, was less effective than
usual, his wild tendencies getting MIN
into deep water in the late innings.
One Inning Sufficient.
One big inning was all the cham
MONS needed to rout keiser, and the
fact that a pitcher was doing duty IN
the outtield was largely responsible
for the imposing lead gained by the
home boys. Dye, left fielder for the

Agnew skied out and Torkelson fouled
to Rapps. Murphy opened the fifth
