ROSELAND ECLIPSE
NINE Is EASY FOR
SLUGGING SINGERS
Local Team Goes on Batting
Spree, Getting Is Runs
and Is Hits.

Singers unbelted one OF those old
time slugging bees Sunday after
noon against the Roseland Eclipse
team Of Chicago and when the dus,
had cleared the locals had crossed
the pan just IS times against their
opponents five.
It was a field day for the machine
makers. Every player. with the
exception Of Collins who played but
in two innings, got at least one safe
bingle and tailed one run or more.
In all, the local lads got Is blows
including four triples and two doub-
les.
Suck Connors was the hitting
hero OF the day, polling out three
hits, a single, double and triple. one
sacrifice hit and scored three runs.
He was closely pressed for honors
by Red Jacobs, Chicago catcher. who
got a homer and two singles. his
bat being responsible for all or the
runs accounted for by the visitors
and Touhey. connected for three
singles and also scored three times.
The game sI8Tted ouT a. Cuouln
it would be one of those bitterly
fought affairs hut all doubt on that
matter was relieved in the third in
ming when the locals sent eight runs
scurrying across the plate. the re suit
of a pass two sacrifice hits, field
ers choice, two singles and two
triples.
Not satisfied that they had piled
up big enough lead the local mace
wielders scored four in the very next
frame and then came right back in
the fifth with five more. These
nine runs were accounted for
through ten safe smacks, one a
triple. The local sluggers then
wearied and the hitting orgy sub
sided.
Tournquist, first up, was safe
when Aftowski threw wildly TO first
on his roller. The next two men
were easy outs but then Jacobs
slammed one of Halas' curves far
over Moffetts head stretched
the blow into a homer. Cornors'
double scored Aftowski who had
singled in the local half Of the first
but he was stranded at the keystone
sack when the umpire called
Moffett and Touhey out on strikes.
From then on Halas was invinc-
ible in the pinches and the Chicago
ans were unable TO come near
scoring, two snappy double plays
in which Halas was the pivot in
each instance checked two mi
serious efforts of the Eclipse outfit
to come near approaching the
plate.
Collins relieved Halas in the eight
and retired the side in order. How
ever ne had trouble in locating
the plate in the ninth, hitting one
man and walking two others. He
settled down then and the next two
batters were easy outs but Jacobs
poled a high fly to deep center and
the three men scored when Broder
dropped the ball.
Smoke" Larson was on the
mound for the visitors until the
fifth when he was chased into
right field, Tornquist going to the
hill from first and his stuff didn't
seem to be any more bewildering
than his predecessor but the local
batters were lenient with the fans
and refused to wallop the agate to
all corners Of the lot. The box

st. Louis. The condition OF busi-
ness in the United States is basically
sound and fear for the welfare OF
commercial America is due principal
ly to a state of mind"--a natural
consequence Of the war
That is the gist OF the results os
an economic survey conducted by the
Mississippi Valley Association and an
nounced at the headquarters of the
organization here. Out of 5000 ques
itonnaires sent to business men.
bankers, agriculturists and economic
students in the 27 states in the val
ley 5000 replies were received.
The underlying thought in the an
swers is that the present business de-
preston is caused by the Consequent
and necessary deflation of the infla.
tion" and the universal demand for
lower living costs, This condition
was augmented, numerous replies
stated, by an era of extravaganza in
buying, without consideration for the
future.
Many expressed the belief that war
time prices were too high. which,
when the natural reaction came,
brought about tendency to confine
purchases to actual necessities. and
thus created doubt In business is
to the future, resulting in a general
attitude on all sides OF 'swatchful
waiting" for price sterilization.
Many asserted no additional system
of credits is needed and but few laid
the blame of business conditions to
the present system OF taxation.
