Giants Pound
Pitchers for
Sixteen Hits
Waite Hoyt Easily Defeats
Dallas-McGraw's Men
Demons with Stick
By CHARLES 4. TAYLOR

Marlin, Tex. March 10. The Giants
arc started.
Sixteen hits, for a total of twenty
seven bases, resulting in fifteen runs,
greeted the Dallas Submarines in the
game played here this afternoon. Inc
Submarines crossed the plate twice. All
the b and c, which translated means
the Beauty and Chiyalry,' Of Marlin
witnessed the slaughter of the team,
which broke even with the McGraw men
in the contests played at Dallas last
Saturday and Sunday.
Davy Robinson began the lombard
ment of the Dallas pitchers in the ilrst
inning with triple that hit the CEN
tire field fence on bound. From that
time on it was bang! bang! bang. until
Jack Murray, who had been substituted
for George Burns, furnished the CLIMAX
by putting the ball over the fence Tor
a home run in the ninth inning.
Hoyt Pitches Full Game
Waite Hovt. the Flatbush boy Won
der. pitched the entire. game Tor the
Giants, and. save for the trst inning,
when Dallas scored two runs, the Sub
marines could do nothing with his
benders. Hoyt allowed four hits and
famed six men.
Dallas used three pitchers -KoeniGs-
mark, Scoggins and Swaziland all
we're subjected TO the same cruel treat
ment. Scoggins is the southpaw who
fooled the Giants so badly in Satur-
DAYS game at Dallas. He was then
termer "Scroggings" on the score card:
1t appears somebody knocked the "r"
out OF his name since Saturday, and
to-day after the Giants pounding he
has probably lost one OF his "g's."
Things looked bad for Hoyt in the
first inning, when base on balls,
single and a double after two men
we're out gave Dallas two runs. This
was the only outburst on the part OF
the submarines, however, during the
game.
Giants Tie Score
The Giants tied the score in their
half of the opening inning, and made
another rally in the third. After TINS
for three innings in a row they made
runs in punches of threes. After
lapse in the seventh inning three more
runs we're scored in the eighth by the
Giants substitutes. who welded the
bat with as much vigor as the regulars
The score follows:

SIS Reward For Slackers.

In proclamation dated at Boise
June IL, Governor Alexander says:
81 hereby offer a reward of $25 for
information given by anyone not an
officer charged with the performance
of duty, that will lead to conviction
in court of competent jurisdiction
of any man between the ages of 81
and 80 years of age, inclusive, who
has not registered for military duty
in accordance with the Act of Con-
gress and the Proclamation of the
President of the United tSates made
in accordance ltherewith. The state
of Idaho does not, says the governor,
propose to permit shirkers to enjoy
immunities to which they are not en-
titled, and! thus destroy the essence of
our free institutions and equality be
fore the law.
Any information, says the procla-
nation, will be treated as strictly
confidential and the people of the
state are asked to cooperate to the
end that the law may be enforced.
