m The fine Spencerian hand of MT.
 Abbott beckoned Jeff Tuero box
 ward at the start of the game. Jeff
 Is recognized as Spencer's ace, and
 he was thoroughly confident tEe !. Cuban chunker would beat the Bar ons The lad from the Antilles, how ever, ran into trouble in the fourth and fifth innings, and should have I been yanked before the close of lhe fifth. Instead of that, Abbott elected to let him finish the fifth and then sent in Hungling to pinch hit for him in the sixth
 Zeke Lohman Sent In
 zeke Lohman, who is alleged to have taught Dan Pfenninger his A. B. C.s, was sent in as relief man. Zeke's fourteenth century souper failed to puzzle the Barons as it has on former occasions, and even after he entered the game, the homelings nicked his delivery for three safe swats and a couple of runs
 Newton suffered but one real bad Inning, and would probably have escaped that without serious injury had Pie Traynor refrained from gaI-l 1oping to left field for a fly which Pug Allen could have caught in his hip pocket. Traynor, however, ever on the alert and always anxious to do his bit, gamboled bit far to the leeward and dropped the ball Af- ter he dropped 1t two Mempnls swat smiths plugged In connection for a couple of one-ply clouts and three runners found the way home.
 Doc Weathers storm.
 This threw a scare into the local bugs, but Doc weathered the storm in calm and unperturbed fashion and continued to get a mighty smooth brand of pitching out of his souper and cranium for the remainder cf the game. The lanky one depends as much on brain as he does on his arm in his pitching assignments.
 It was another one of those blus- tery little afternoons, with rain drops, gales, rainbows, lightning flashes, thunder rolls and sunshine | all mixed in in goulash style. As the game progressed, the ominus- looking clouds formed in squadron formation for a general march on | Redwood. The clouds maneuvered | over Red mountain for awhile and | then sailed over the field. Consid- | erable rain was dumped upon the turf | in the seventh, and the game was called for eight minutes. The weather | mans bluff was called after an eight | minutes loaf, however, the water wagon moved on to other parts, and | the game was continued.
 Bernie and GoOch Homer
 Two home runs featured the Ba- ronial attack. Dutch Bernsen Ruthed one in the fourth with a man on base. Old Dutch Cleanser poled one down the groove in left center | and came into the home plate stand ing up. Johnny Gooch also pulver- ized one in the eighth for a groove blow, and Johnny, too, had plenty | of time to have wiped his feet on the door before touching home plate. Not only did Bernie lam out a homer. but he had perfect day with | the willow, hitting a four-baser, two singles and drawing a base on balls out of four trips to the platter sector.
 'FIashy Fielding
 :, Emery, Taylor and Stewart con- tributed some of the flashiest bits of fielding to the pastime, while Allen, Traynor and a number of other Bar ons pulled defensive stuff that brought applause from the stands and sighs from Spencer Abbott. The Herculean Chick pilot wanted above all else to win that record game of shoes feel around him at times, the Chick luck piece was not in as per- feet working order as was the cass when the gods of fate put on an enormous grin acreage for the Bluff Cityians.
 The Chicks scored first in the first. But for a generous prank of fate they would have made a couple (
