CAUGHT ON THE FLY

ST. LOUIS, May 21.-Sisler gave a
remarkable exhibition of fielding. He
saved his infelders from being
charged with several errors by
stretching and reaching in all direc-
tions for bum pegs.
Earl Smith, who was charged with
couple of miscues, turned in the
fielding feature. 1t was his stab of
Milan's foul after long sprint in the
sixth.
There was a band on hand in con-
nection with the Salvation Army drive
for funds. Altrock made capital of
the jazzy tunes by putting on an
stunts.
In view of Lewis recent aenemic
hitting and the fact that Emilio
Palmero. left-hander. worked for
the browns, Milan was shifted to left
field and Miller installed in right.
Hundreds of fans who turned out
early to apply for reserved space for
the opening battle here between the
were disappointed. A capacity crowd
is in prospect for the first appearance
in ST. Louis this season of Babe Ruth.
Harris made q nne stop and throw
of ball near second to nip the
fleet Sisler in the first inning.
Although he fl0svered in the busi-
ness at hand with two on base in
the sixth. Miller had quite an inter-
esting session at bat before he finally
was retired. One foul from his
weapon struck Ellerbe. coaching at
first. and on another Williams charged
head-on into the left field pavilion.
This blow must have affected Will
liams' power of reasoning for he at
