Third Game.
The third contest of the series de
veloped into pitchers battle between
Carney, who was on the mound for
Ole Miss, and Arasmith, of Illinois.
The honors were about even, each
pitcher allowing only four hits, none
of them being for extra bases. The
game was very close, hard-fought and
exciting. and the crowd was frequent
ly brought to its feet by thrilling
pays and tight situations.
Carney pitched splendid ball for Ole
Mss. He held the Illinois bunch COM
fpfetely at the mercy of his shoots and
fast ones; and the lore tally was not
earned. Freshman Woo1s, at short,
also did his bit. He made two Of Ole
Miss four hits; and in the seventh
inning, with two down, and the bases
| full, he made sensational stop of
Edwards singing grounder, and
| perfect peg 10 fist, retiring the side
and saving at least one run. Lantrip
and "Runt" Wilson claimed the other
two Ole Miss hits. Enoch Wilson
r,ayed a good game behind the bat.
Rodney Ssk, on first base, was in
great form and froze to several balls
that seemed headed fer the golf links.
For the visitors, Ingwerson led the
hitting with two bingles. Arasmith
pitched great ball, and the Ole Miss
batters seemed unable to connect with
his puzzling drops. Diehl got one hit,
and probably saved the game for the
visitors by his sensational catch of
Testers long fly in the third. Thomas,
on third, got ore hit and fielded his
position well.
That Nerve-Racking Third.
Neither team scored in the first two
innings. In the third frame, with two
down, Doss drew a base on balls,
stole second and went on to third on
E Wilson's wild peg; and when Woods
low throw to third got by "Runt'
Wilson, Doss proceeded to romp home
with the winning run.
Ole Miss came in in their half OF
the third with the determination to
even things up. "Runt' Wilson, the
first man up, slapped out hot single
to left. Carney was out on a pop
foul to Thomas. Lester, the next man
up, slammed out screaming fly to the
left field dump. 1t looked good for
three bags; but Diehl, the Illinois left
fielder, while running at full speed
with his back to the plate, made won
derful catch which undoubtedly saved
the game for Illinois; for Lantrip, the
next man up, poled out screaming
single to center. The inning ended
when Woods famed.
Ole Miss came near scoring again
in the fourth. With one down, Ara
smith hit Sisk and E. Wilson; and a
passed ball allowed them each to ad-
vance a base. Then Arasmith tight
ened up, forced Kirk to hit an easy
fly to short, and struck out "Runt''
Wilson.
{, In the seventh, Illinois came near
scoring again. Johnson got to first
on Sisk's error. Ingwerson singled
and Diehl beat out slow one to sec
ond. Then, with the bases full, Car
ney frightened up and struck out Thom-
as. johnson was forced at the plate
on Kopp's grounder to third, and
Woods made beautiful stop OF Ed
wards hot grounder, aDa threw t.
