In the second game Frank Herbst was shaded by Zeke Lohman, largely because Zeke had sthe better support. Frank pitched splendid ball, but wild heave by Bernsen in the first inning complicated the situation against Frank and allowed Little Rock one run. Yhe Barons were unable to score off Lohman.
 The Barons started after Yellow horse in the first frame of the opening game as if they would rout him be- fore one inning was over, but the ln- dion had it on them after that one in- ming Molesworth used his chance lineup again in the first game.

TRAVELLERS START

The Travellers wasted a hit in the second and another in the third, but in the fourth they punched two for run. After Harper had gone out, Miller scratched a hit to third and took second when Glazner made wild throw to first. Brottem fouled out but Frierson slammed a double over Grffith's head, which scored Miller. McGinnis' went out on strikes
 With two out in the fifth Wano stepped into a fast one and drove it over Meeks' head for a home run. The Travellers apparently had found GlaZ- ner, for after Moore and Harper singled, Molesworth called "Whitey" in and sent Gallagher to the hill. Tom walked Miller, but Griffith made nice catch on Brottems drive and stopped the scoring.
 From the first until two were out in the fifth the Barons went hitless, and then Glazner lined a double to right Barnhart's grounder to short took a bad hop and went for a hit, but with GlaZner on third, Peters rolled to Distel, who stepped on sec ond- forcing Barnhart.
 With two gone in the sixth Ellis singled, but was caught stealing. Gal lagher beat out a bunt to start the eighth, but was forced by Barnhart and. Peters and Bernsen popped out Cron singled in the ninth with two gone but Griffith famed.
 Harper started the ninth with long drive to Griffith who made nice catch Miller lined to right and the ball bounded into the overflow crowd Ordinarily the hit would have been triple, but ground rules held it to double Brottem drove a sizzling grounder between Stevenson and Barn. hart and Miller scored
