KATE AND TAYLOR
AGAIN IN CONFLICT
A Terl-Inning Game in Which Ocala
Won Over DunnellOn by
Six to Five
fBy L. 7. Il

Burl.ie Taylor and Harmon Katz
again had rough and rowdy time at
the Ocala park and again Taylor got
the better of the struggle. This game
was not so close as the game last
week and neither pitcher did as well
as then but as in the previous game
they were very evenly matched and
again the game went ten innings be-
fore they could decide which was the
better man.
Strickland, Wood and Clements
each got two hits in this game, thus
placing themselves above the heads
cf the rest in stick work The batting
of Harry Wood is especially .to be
noted. for although he onlg scored two
hits he landed on three other balls
that caused fielding stars. In other
words, he was robbed of at least two
other hits by sensational fielding on
the part of Strickland and Kibler.
Strickland also made wonderful
catch of ball hit by Joe Brooks.
The field work of the 0cala team
showed us star or two. Clements
made beautiful running catch of a
fly off the bat of Katz. Fred Luffman
pulled down foul fly that would have
done credit to any third baseman.
