spectators Manager r. C. Wood
wards American Legion indoor base
ball nine recorded their first victory
of the season last night when they de-
feated the Grand Ridge Odd Fellows,
II to 6, at Armory c., in one of the
most interesting games of its kind
ever staged around this neck of the
woods. 1t was an easy victory for the
Ottawans who starting in the first
inning, slammed pitcher Gerge Craw-
ford's twisters all over the armory,
and held the lead throughout the en-
tire game.
1t was au exciting game and the
fans enjoyed il very much The OF

of the game and scored their first run.

error on the part of the first baseman
for Grand Ridge. Boyle struck out

stealing home. fSpague followed but
was thrown out az first base
In the next frame they came back
with four scores, taking the Grand
Ridge players off their feet. Ottawa
indoor fans who gathered to witness
the combat went wild and the amory
rang with cheers
In the following inning Grand
Ridge held the serviCe lads scoreless
and it looked as though Crawford was
Just Tightening up and that it would
be a tough battle from there on. But
in the fourth stanZa the Grand Ridge
hurler was slammed for five hits,
which resulted IN the scoring of four
more runs for Ottawa. In the remain
ing four innings Woodward's men sue
ceeded in scoring nine more runs,
bringing their total to seventeen.
Until the fourth inning Grand Ridge
was held without Il score. In that
frame they scored four of their six
runs. f. Crawford was first to bat
and reached FIRST on an error by Hold
gins. HodEiu3 chen sent them sail

and struck the following two men out,
although Crawford succeeded in scor-

by Waterloo, professional champions
of Iowa, 10 to 0, last Sunday, are still
contenders for the Midwest League

beaten by the Boosters early in the
season by the narrow margin of a
drop kick. The result of the score

Notes Of the Game.

It wouldn't have looked so bad if
"Doc" Buchner hadn't knocked the
ball into the concert stand at the
north end of the armory in the sew
enth inning. Evidently DOC" had a
grudge against Crawford and took
his spite out in that way.
One of the most interesting spec
tators of the game last evening was
Tom Sheehan, New York Yankee
baseball pitcher Tom was interest

before the game was over.
And then over in another corner

KOHL MARSE|LLES|
ALL,STARS TONIGHT
GAME SCHEDULED TO START AT
8 o'cLock-NUMBE OF oTTA-
WA FANS ARE PLANNING TO
MAKE TRIP TO SEE CONTEST
AND PICK LEGION TO WIN.

The Ottawa Legion basketball team
will play their third game OF the sea-
son tonight when they journey to Mar
settles, where they will encounter Phil
KohPs fast Marseilles All.Stars at the
Legion hall there. Captain Hitter or
the Legion outfit and his men are con
fident that they will return to this
city with another victory added to
their belts. OF course, It will be a
tough skirmish and Kohl's band or
warriors will give Hitter's clan some
thing to go for from the time the first
whistle is sounded until the final gong
announcing the end of the game.
The service squad is a much
stronger aggregation than the one
that player Haage's team last Friday
night at the armory. Since that game
Hitter and his men have put IN some
hard practice in preparation for the
game with the All-Stars. When they
played Haages team they lacked suf-
ficient teamwork and did not possess
very strong defense, although in the
first half of the game they outplayed
the Certain-teed gang. AS the result
of that lacking the Marseiles aggre-
cation stepped out and knotted the
score In the last few minutes OF play
A free throw and -/basket by Ander-
son, however, united the score and
gave the Ottawans win. II the
game had gone another few minutes
Hitter's team would have no doubt
suffered a defeat, as their defense
started to weaken and the Marseilles
players started to tighten up.
That game taught them lesson
and they started preparations to de-
yelop a stronger defense to work up
some better teamwork. After a weeks
solid training they have succeeded
and fur will fly high, wide and hand
some when they mix with kohl's
tribe.
This morning Captain Hitter stated
that he was confident that his team
would win the game, although II dope
has anything to do with it they will
have to do some awful humping to
keep out of the fog with the Kohl
team. The All-Stars defeated the fast
Earlvile Cardinals last week, 30 to
rs, at the Marseilles Legion hall in a
very interesting basketball game.
That same Cardinal team is able to
boast of having won from Hittcr's
team, 29 to 10.
Hitter and his men are going to dis
regard that defeat and are going to
use every bit of pep and energy avail
able to cop tonights contest.
large number of ottawa fans are
strongly backing the Legion outfit and
expect them to win, and intend to
make the trip to Marseilles tonight
TO witness the battle. The game will
start at 8 o'clock and win be pre-
coded by preliminary game. Fol
lowing is the way Hitter's team will
line up against the Marseiles aggre-

GODDARD FIGHT

New York. Dec. "a call to action
