Loose Playing by Hugmcn
Loose playing once more was the
cause of the undoing Of the Hugmen.
They clouted Urban Shocker often and
with sufficient force to take the ball

damaging errors at the same time
Alex Ferguson started for New York
but was derricked in the seventh, after
Tobin had hit for a home run and
Gerber doubled to left.
Johnny Mitchell took up the game
right where he left off yesterday and
spotted the Browns to a brace of runs
right off the reel. Johnny set right

rolled one down to hin4, and Mitchell
not only cuffed the ball but threw
it wide of the bag, Tobin going to sec

and Gerber flied to Hawks. Successive
passes to Sisler and Williams filled the
bases and SEVERED crashed to left for
