Game Turned Into Burlesoue
What started as a game of baseball
ended as burlesque. After shutting
the aviators out for six innings the
giants began shooing runs in for them.
far be II from me to critic:se their
charitable intentions, but we think they
laid il on a bit thick.
The Giants shooed in six runs by
easy pitching and large numbers Of
consecutive errors, and then Ger
many" Schaefer was given a chance to
play the comic. He pitched the final
lnnlng and the aviators made four
mole runs of him. Prince Henry
pitched some Of the balls between his
legs and others from behind his back
