Wen be dadburned II the Pro-
ducers didn't break an irOnclad rule
yesterday and instead of managing
to lose one game of sabbath
doubleheader, pounded the opposing
artillerymen something scandalous,
thereby trimming the Ardmore con-
tingent in both exhibitions the first
by a score of to and the second
by the score of 7 to 4.
Besides holding the willow weld
ers to "A few scattered hits and three
runs in the first game. Boss Young
helped his associates win the second
game by sauntering around in the
coacher's territory in the vicinity
of third base. where he stomped
about, displaying grace and daini-
ness that far outclassed the hest
efforts of some high -salaried skirt
dancers we have seen.
Cy Was Spry.
Heretofore Cy has been wont to
remain seated in the dugout when
not engaged in heaving duty, but
the flashing smiles of -bevy of
girls who were visiting in the press
box put life into the foreman as
well as his toilers. Cy did real well
on the coaching lines. None OF the
big show comedians had anything on
Cy when it came to amusing the GUS
toners and urging his playmates on
to victory.
Lee Fairchild appeared in the
lineup, he being detailed to guard
the right garden vacated by Johnny
Singleton. who failed to live up to
rumors of prowess and was released
by Young. Lee hit the ball couple
of times and made a number of
spectacular catches that lead one to
wonder why he had not been hurried
out to the rural precincts before.
Sparks Wins.
Sparks. recently obtained from
Denison in a trade in which Poison
figured. twirled the second contest.
winning his game Z to L. In pass
ing, it might be said that Ardmore
made several more tallies than they
had coming by virtue of the fact
that his support wabbled on one or
two occasions, permitting a couple of
runners to get across.
Ardmore made the first scores of the
day, two men breezing across the
home plate in the second when Hall
leaned so heavily against the hoss
hide that IT meandered over the right
garden wall also scoring T0tten. In
their half of the same frame the Pro
ducers managed for one tally when
Dowie singled going to second on
Young's sacrifice and scored on
Wooleys single.
In their half of the fourth Ard
more did nothing in the nature OF
scores. while the heavy artillery got
after the slants of Mr.. Dennis so Wig
orously that they scored five men and
Meestaire Davis relieved Dennis of
further toll.
Balenti hit the first ball pitched
over the left fence for four bases.
Heatlcy smacked the pill solldly and
drew up at second. Fairchild was
rendered walk and the bases were
dripping with not n soul down when
Totten dropped Ohlln's attempted sac
rifice bunt. Brady was out on an in
field fly, whereupon Robert Dowie
caused the hearts of the feminine GUS
toners to palpitate huriiedly when he
slammed the old pill over the fence in
deep center and four ball players
wearing Tulsa uniforms walked across
the pan in a row. 1t was wonderful
parade. No circus pageant ever bore
more splendor than the parade of the
four. Scoring ceased when Young
famed and Wooley flew out to center
In the sixth Allison hit the balp over
the fence Cor another run and the
local stalwarts obtained an additional
marker when Brady walked and
scored on Dowie's double. Thereafter
the scoreboard tender did nothing but
put goose eggs on the board.
The Second Victory.
Thus we have, after a fashion, dis
