whaley with Red. Ripperton was the lad who waited Red out at the beginning of the second and walked to first. Cunningham, attempting a sacrifice, beat 1t out, and two men were on. A sacrifice from the bat of Water kress sent the two run ners over to second and third Wright then unleashed his mighty war club for single into center and Ripper- ton counted on the drive. Cunning ham also attempted to score from second, but deadly peg from Doe Silva, who by the way has con- tracted chronic habit Of throwing men out at the plate of late, nipped Cunningham The play was Silva to Robertson. Croll skied to first and the innings was over with the lowly Lookouts enjoying a one run lead.
 MoIey's Men Tie Score
 Moleys men got this one back In their half of the second, starting the rally that was productive of a tally after the first two men to face Drake, former Baron youngster had been retired Taylor lifted a sky scraper into center and Neun fol- lowed suit Doc Silva then crashed Il one-time hit into left and stole
 
 the single through the innerworks at third that brought the fleet-footed Silva across with the tying score. That ended the making for the abbreviated game.
 In the third the Lookouts threat ened again, but great play by Claude Robertson killed their chances of scoring. Drake led off with a cracking two-bagger into right field and Clayton attempted a sacrifice with neat bunt In front of the plate. Bobby skidded into the ball in lghtning-lil1e time. and for a putout, Clayton going safe on fielder's choice. Manager Me- Donald then hit into a double play | and the tension was alleviated.
 With one down in the third, Bates singled through short and Stewart drew walk. Harper was up when the rain started falling. Drake got two strikes on Harper when the umps was forced to call the game. After a wait of 25 minutes play was resumed. Harper, hqsvever, was not equal to the task and he skied to right for the second out, while Clarkie struck out, and the inning was over.
 LoOkOutS Cnhheu
 In the fourth inning Kress claimed he was hit by a batted ball, but the umps dlsallowed the claim. A rag ging match started from the Chat tanoogn bench which went into the Barons' half of the fourth. Umps Williams then chased Pitcher Norris of the Lookouts from the field and fined him ten bucks. He also made the remaining Lookouts get into the dugout. When he did this McDon- aid asked that the Barons be run irto their dugout as well, but the umps refused on the grounds that the local players bench was outside the dugout. A Sensational Stop
 Taylor, who has run into full- grown hitting slump of late, struck out to start the fourth and Flip Neun 1 peeled off clean wallop into cen- ter Silva grounded out to first, but Robertson beat out an infield tap. With two on Jesse Burkett did his durndest to win the ball game and would have put it on ice, but for the prettiest catch ever seen on the lo- cal lot by Center Fielder Clayton. Burkett drove it down the groove in left center, and 1t looked good for three bags, at least. In spite of q heavy track, however, Clayton spurt- ed fenceward, jumped high in the ! air. threw his gloved hand at the ball and turned somersault, but the ball stuck.
 Tommy Taylor also robbed the Lookouts of hit in the fifth. when he climbed into the ozone and brought down Wight's. line drive by a remarkable one-hand stab. With two down in the first of the seventh and Kress at bat the deluge | started again, and the game was off for all time.
