tor the locals and his pitching was so
effective that he was allowed to go all the
way, with telling results. The visitors
took the lead right off the jump when
Stoke beat out an infeld grounder for
hit and went to second on passed ball.
w. johnson smashed out another grounder
and ON took felders choice and threw
out Stoke at the third corner. Lefsted
struck out. B. Nelson smashed liner
down the right field foul line, that scored
w. johnson. B. Nelson was thrown out,
Gels to ON to Yves, when he tried to
stretch his hit into three-bagger and
w. johnson just barely cleared the platter
in time for his run to count before the
third out was made at the third station.
This was the only run the visitors got
that could be charged directly up to San,
for after that he settled down to business
and the hits he allowed were few and far
between.
Only in one more inning did the visitors
get busy and stage a threatening attitude
and that was in the opening of the fifth
frame. R. johnson led off with grounder
that was headed for right field but Hick
felded the ball without bobble and on
account of neither San or ON covering
first bag in time, r. Johnson beat it out
for hit and went to second on a wild
throw. Bell struck out but E. Nelson was
passed on balls Stoke hit liner to CEN
ter and r. johnson was thrown out at the
plate, Mye to Bur. w. johnson got
single to right, scoring E. Nelson. Lefsted
went out by Hick, unassisted, retiring the
side and ending all scoring for the visi-

E. Nelson, who is younger brother of
the venerable backstop, B. Nelson, was on
the mound for the visitors in the opening
chapters and his work for three successive
frames was all that could be expected of
any pitcher. Up until the last half of the
fourth he held the locals to only one
scratch hit, that produced two unearned
runs. When the locals came to bat in the
either lost confidence in himself or else
the local tribesmen had solved the problem
of his mysterious slants. Gels, the first
man up, hit fast grounder down the
third base line and Stoke made beauti-
full stop behind third but before he could
shoot the ball across to first, Gels had
- fo~
along the third base line and before Stoke
could recover the ball, San had beaten it
out for hit and went on to second when
Stoke made wild throw to first. liver
got single to short CENTER scoring Gels
and with San on third, liver went to
second with no resistance. Bur smashed
one out over R. Johnson's head for two
stations, scoring San and liver. ON got
double to right but Bur made no effort
to score on the hit so he came to roost on
third. A moment later B. Nelson fired
one to third that bottled Bur up on the
runway and was finally put out by B.
Nelson. ON went to third on the put
out. Hick got single between third
and short, scoring ON. Bon went out on
fly to Stoke and Yves struckout This
ended E. Nelson's period in the box and
when the locals came to bat in the fifth
frame, Bell was on the mound for the
visitors. His work could hardly be classed
as an amateur pitcher but with the aid of
the Umps he got away pretty easy.
"That's all right Umps but be careful it
done occur when the locals are on the
losing end" Mye, Gels and San, the first
three batters to face Bell, all connected
for single and Mye scored on Sans hit.
liver struck out with the aid of the Umps
but Bur was passed on balls for good
measure. ON cracked out an infeld
grounder that forced out Bur at second
but Gels scored on the putout. Hick got
a single to right that scored San and put
ON on third. With these two old vet
