II take my baseball seriously" said
Don Porfrio, "and l don't like any
rough stuff. could pitch ball game
myself as good as Schaefer."
With that Don Porfrio Diaz dived
into the depths of his pellucid pool
and we went to work.
The Giants took the Bronco over
by score of 8 to /. and the outstand
ing feature of the game was that Fer
dinand Stabbefeld Schupp is in any
thing but his normal form.
While the esteemed young Kentuck
ian WENT three frames without dire re-
suits, his famous left wing could be
heard crcaking and grooming above the
din raised by the army biplanes that
streakedS through the sky over the ball
park.
Gives Way to Tcsreau
In three innings Schupp gave four
bases on balls, and the Broncs would
have fallen heir to more similar gifts
if they hadn't been anxious to hit. 1T
Ferdinand the First was putting any
thing on the ball it wasn't visible to
the naked eye, and after conversa-
ton with McGraw in the third inning
he withdrew in favor of jeff Tesreau.
Tesreau doomed along for five inn
ings. pitching ball that was sometimes
good sometimes indifferent and never
wholly bad. At times sharp support
helped the big Highlander, notably in
the fourth inning, when Northcn led Oft
with double and then was Ncaught of
the sack.
"Northen always was bonehead,
remarked Senior Don Porfrio Diaz as
he came to the top of the pool and
swan lazily around it.
Again in the fifth inning Fletcher,
Doyle and Holke turned clever double
play otter Pier had busted loose with
Il single. Otherwise big jeff sailed
right along without damage and his
liquid pipes were spouting we'll. Some
times his splitter sank as much as a
foot
Prince Henry Schaefer pitched the
concluding frame, but with less than
his customary flourish. Hale, the first
Bronc to face the Prince, knocked a
double over Pep Young's minaret, and,
fearing Il general slaughter, Schaef
settled down and put the next three
men out on easy chances.
The Giant offensive began operations
in the second inning. Lefty" Ross. a
southsidar, was hurting against them
and DOYLE was first to nick him for a
base, hitting a line single to right to
open the second. Fletcher forced Doyle
at second, went to second on passed
ball and stole third as Holke was
passed. Singles by McCarty and Schupp
scored Captain Arthur and the lanky
first sacker.
Heavy Firing in Eighth
With two down in the fourth "Pep'
Young singled to centre. Benny Kaufi
banged another single into right and
Young went over to third. George
Burns rammed double against the
fence literature in deep centre, and
both Young and KauE paid off.
1t was not until the eighth inning
that the Giants brought up their heavy
gums. In that frame six successive hits
drive in four runs, and with greater
care in manipulating the drives the
Giants would have scored more.
DOYLE beat out a slow rolling bunt
down the irst base line. Fletcher hit
tremendous double to the soft sand
in left that scored Doyle. Holke fol
lowed with a two-base jain to right
that scored Fletcher. wal Bill" Rari-
den took it upon himself to hit line
single over second and ''N''N ecorcd
Bill waddling along to ST.. ~.. he

Big jim Thorpe busted single to
left. but Baggan's throw caught Rari'
