nooga Lookouts showed a
H punch like that of Jack
UETM Dempsey in Mondays dou-
FA BILE affair at Russwood, and
= "a gave the Chicks a twin
NJ beating before a good week
day congregation of bugs
@ who had assembled in the
belief that the Chicks would have an
easy time taking the measure Of the
Chattanoogans, who, by the way, are
the tailenders at present.
The opening affair went the full nine
rounds, while the windup contest tray
eled to the seventh, where it was halt
ed, much to the relief of the fans in
the stands, who are far from gluttons
for punishment. Paddy Lehman and
Rube Marshall pitched the LOokouts to
victory in the two affairs. while Tiny
Goodbred and Eddie Foster get credit
in the lost column. Both games were
frazzled affairs, with poor baseball
sharing honors with poor umpiring,
Umpire SHIRLEY, had a big part in losing
the first game for the Chicks, giving
several putrid decisions.
Lou Christenbury, Chick shortsmith,
gave vent to a two-base wild heave In
the ninth frame of the first game which
cost the winning run, The two clubs
entered the ninth with the score stand
ing %. Griffith, Chattanooga out
fielder, hit a hopper to Chris, who
threw the pill about 20 feet over Grit
fins head, Griffith taking second. Mel
derkorn put Griffith on third with a
sacrifice, and Kelly came through with
a single to right, which brought Griff
over with the winning u in. In the
ninth for Memphis, Dixie Carroll was
called out by alleged Umpire SHIRLEY on
strikes, despite the fact that one of
the pitches he called a strike was a
mile outside.
The Lookouts got out in front early
and in the second inning scored a run;
with one gone, Manda made a bad
throw to first on Demoe's %grounder,
Demoe taking second, and scoring on
Griffith's single to center. In the third
Lehman was safe on Christenbury's
Humble and Gleason, after vainly try
ing to sacrifice, singled to right, Lob
man taking second. Graft hunted the
two C~hattanoogans up a notch and Nei-
derkorn scored Lohman with a single.
The Lookouts were Easy until the
ninth, when C~hristenbury's error gave
them the game.
The Tribe tied the score in the third
With one gone, Bischoff hit a %grounder
to Gleason and took third when Gleason
threw the ball over first base. Good
bred whitfield and glastonbury tripled
to right, Bischoff scoring. Christen-
bury scored on Barger's single to right.
The Chicks threatened several times
during the latter rounds, but were un-
able to score on Lehman.
Second Game.
In the second affair the Lookouts
punched hits off Foster in the fifth and
sixth innings, scoring two runs in each
round, more than enough to win.
Nothing of interest happened till the
fifth, when Anderson singled to center
and was forced at second by Kelly,
Marshall whitfield and Gleason singled
to right, Kelly taking second. Gleason
stole second. Graft singled to center
and Kelly and Gleason registered. In
the sixth Bratchi singled off Manda's
shins, and Demoe fouled out to Griffin
Griffith was tossed cut by Lewis. An
derson singled to left, scoring Bratchi
kelly's double to right scored Ander-
son.
The Tribe had a tough time with
Rube Marshall. In the seventh the only
run the locals managed to get off Rube
was coined. Manda lifted to Griffith
and Bischoff singled off Demoe. Can
AVIAN batted for Foster and hoisted to
Bratchi. Christenbury doubled to right
center and Barger singled to center
Bischoff scoring. Carroll was tossed
out by Gleason to end the game.
There was a good Monday crowd in
the stands.
