At this stage Of the game the Will

the locals fresh hope. Lack Of ex-
perience on the part OF McGrory,
who was sent to the firing lines to
start the opener, however, was the
alibi. But say when that lean,
lanky, old Wiley came from the
outer garden to the firing line, the

Brooklyn made only five hits but
three of them came in the ninth in

Scott was pitching then and he
broke out with a wide grin when he
made Kelly swing foolishly twice at
low curve ball his second time at
bat.
He fed the long one another curve
and he smashed it clear to the center
field fence, but they were laying back
for him and it was good for only a
double.
Il guess he's a bum on a curve
ball, too" said Donlin.
The battle between Kelly and Babe
Ruth for home run honors not only

easily the sensation of the young sea-
