LIBERTY IN TUSSLE
WITH EAGLES SUNDAY

Liberty Grays will tackle the Eagles
Sunday on the local diamond at Exhi-
bition park at 3 o'clock. Jones, who
worked for the Eagles last Sunday on
the mound, is slated to be on hand
to do the chucking for Liberty Lib
erty used him in the game during the
fair.
The Eagles didn't beat the Liberty
hurler by any big margin when the
two clubs met during the Wayne coun-
ty fair and the hurler was in fine form,
but his support was poor in the field
If he had had support, the score would
have been tight all the way through.
Hawekotte will take the mound for
the Birdmen and the remainder of the
lineup will remain the same as in
last Sundays game.

are dickering for a series of games.
They have played together all this

style. If they keep up, they will have
met as often as clubs in the major
leagues meet in one season.

MEATS, FILTERS AND
LAUNDRY SCORE, WINS

Opening of the City Bowling league
on the R. & w. alleys Friday night
sent three teams to the front in the
standing. The Home Laundry, Maher
Meats and Shoe Filters took the hon.
ors of the evenings bowling.
With the league rolling each Friday
night in such bang-up form as they
started out in this initial meeting, in
tense interest should be manifested to
last throughout the season.
The Home Laundry has a roster of
crack bowlers, who pack a handicap
much smaller than that of any other
team in the league. Art King and
Ducky Sherer came to the front for
the Laundry team, the former holding
the score for the evening and the lat
ter taking high average at 215.
Prospects are bright for the best
bowling season in years.

MARKLE HURLS REDS

BOSTON, Sept 23.-Cliff Markle
made start of his own against the
Boston Braves in the final game, after
the Redlegs had been trounced in the
first of the double bill, and emerged
from the nine-inning fray with his club
on top, 6 to O, and the Braves smart
ing under the blow which they re-
ceived Markle allowed the Beantown
bS.ters but three singles for the nine
innings.
John Couch did not fare so well in
the opening game when he lost his
first game to the Boston club this sea-
son. The Braves took an early lead
by scoring two In the second and third
and the Redlegs could not score until
the ninth, when two tallies did little
good, other than prevent shut-out.
Curve Ball Effective.
Markle's curve ball had the Braves
number during the bill and the three
singles, which were taken off his de-
livery were minor ones.
Mcnamara was in rare form for the
first game, when he let the Redc down.
He allowed but three hits in eight in
n1ngS, but C1nci got to MIN IN the
ninth and ran their total UP to six for
the game.
Second Game.
Cinci put the second game on ice in
the fourth inning with four ta1lies in
the rally. AS far as the game was
concerned, it was won in the first in
ming when the Moran club counted
once on Burns home run to deep CEN
