tossed his bat toward the dugout
Myers lifted al easy one to Smoky
Joe" Wood. Konetchy drove a clean
single to right and then the Cleveland
infield started to kick up.
PeterlSin .Kilduff raped an easy one
down to Sewell the University Of Ala
bama alumnus, and Sewcl kicked il
across the green. Miller raped one
of the same brand TO Larry Gardner
and Larry paved at it until the slow
moving Dodger backstop reached first.
THIS packed the bases and gave Ser
gcant Sherrod Smith a chance to help
himself considerably, but the Sergeant
10 place TO 5ift pill when iris
Speaker is ranging the territory.
Disaster seemed about to hit Ser
geant Smith right behind the ear in
the Indian half of the second but
little Petcrkin Kilduf helped to block
the blow. Burns got a base on balls
and was forced at second Wood, old
Smoky Joseph himself, raped a sin
gle past Jack Sheehan, sending Gard
ner to third. Sewel hit one to Kill
duti, who passed to the plate, and Otto
Miller, sitting peacefully on the path,
blocked Gardner at the plate. O'Neill
tried to knock Peterkin into the stands
with a savage drive, but the stocky
son Of the Omaha stockvards smoth-
cred the ball and touched second for

Secretary Baker in Box
The multitude started to settle in
The seats for one of those somber things
hey call a pitchers duel, for nothing
OF moment happened in the third in
ming. 1t looked as though the two
lett-handers we're about set TO keep
them there until dusk.
With one out in the fourth, Myers
styled to right and the "Duster"
passed Konetchy, the big Bohemian.
But KIlduT ho:sted to Wood and Otto
Miller lifted one to Evans. Secretary
Of War Newton &. Baker, in a stra-
tegic position in all upstairs box,
looked triAe bored. The thing be-
gan to remind him OF the Democratic
campaign-no pep. Aud nobody go
three in row fioated out peacefully
In the fifth. Sherrod Smith inter
rupted the calm by squawking raucous-
ly when Tommy Connolly called a
third strike on him. The Sergeant
lost the argument, if there was any.
Olsen gave Speaker Il short exercise
gallop to nail hy and Sewell. after
Juggling the pill nervously, threw out
Sheehan.
Indian Drive Ended Quickly
The local bugs started to clamor for
something to happen, when the In
dlans came TO bat, and something al
most did. Young Joseph Sewell singled
to center. The Indians tried the hit and
run play. Smith had hunch and made q
pitch out. Miller made throw to Oh
son and Sewell was nailed at second.
That stopped anything even remotely
resembling drive in that inning
There was some espondency i'll evi-
dence in the sixth, when Bernie Neis
was given q base on balls Neis moved
just 3 little too far from the bag and
was nailed by a snappy throw by Steve
y O'Nelli. Seweu reached in the air for
q bounding drive by Wheat and caught
the Dodger captain with fine throw
to first. The local bugs roared in re-
lief.
The crash came in the Indian half
OF the sixth, with two out. iris
Speaker slashed single into left field
Cleveland George Burns, who does the
hrst basing against left handlers
showed that he can hit the port siders
He cracked one that bounded against
the center field wall for two bagger
and Speaker scored.
Home Fans Test Lungs
The local inmates rose on their hind
legs and roared. That looked like the
ball game then and there if the
'DusterN could hold out, and it looked
a. though the "Duster" would hold out
indefinitely unless some fiend in human
i9rm punctured his widely expanded
chest with pin. In that case the
"Duster" might have blown with 4
noise like punctured tire.
Secretary OF War Baker vawned
again through the second period. The
plJchers' duel was on again. 1t was
horribly monotonous and horribly like
the Democratic campaign again. There
was some cor sternation among the in
habltants OF Cleveland when Ivan Of
son, the hitting Dodger OF this series,
drove two bagger along the left field
me wltn one out. But the consterna-
ton did not last long. Jack Sheehan
lSted an easy one to Larry Gardner.
Uncle Wilbert Robinson waved to
Heinie Kruger to bat for Neis Heinie
foued Oft one, then he rolled an easy
grounder down to Gardner. Olson was
coming toward third and Gardner had
only TO reach out and tag him to end
the suspense of the inmates.
Wheat Spoils Home Run
Evans got a single. with one out, in
the Cleveland section Of the eighth,
but was caught off the bag bva quick
pass by Sherrod Smith. 1t looked for
q moment as though Wambsganss, au-
thor Of the triple play unassisted,
might get a home run into the left
center section OF the multitude, but
Wheat made a running catch and
spread the pill with his back against
the wall.
Myers was spectacular in the ninth.
but it meant nothing in this series
With one out he raped one to Sewell,
and as the Cleveland rookie juggled
the ball for an instant he dived across
the bag just whisker ahead of the
throw and plowed through the grass
safe. konetchy forced him at second
and McCabe was sent in to run.
kilduh dug his toes into the dirt
and tried to drive one into the steerage
passengers IN left. but it was Just d
foot or so short. Evans GOT, under it
and the game was through So, il
seemed, were the Dodgers, so far as
the nreSpn+ series j. coDcerued
