There is quite a demand for a go

days ago had not number of towns
butted into the game by promising
the wrestiers more money than has
been involved in any mat event in the
state this year. Since then Rigby has
been hesitating and wondering Il the
interest here would permit him to put
IL over.
For that reason another double
carded bill has been arranged. and
iTopekas interest in the wrestling
game will be on trial the night OF May

Was CLOSE CAME
Topeka Only One Run Short of
Winning Yesterday.
Pitcher Yendes Was Wild, But
He Hit a Homer.

Muskogee, Okla, April 22.-In
cracking good ball game here yester
day afternoon, Muskogee again won
over Topeka by a score of to 6. The
Nets duplicated their opening day per-
Torrance by overcoming Topekas
three run lead and going ahead in the
fourth inning. Then they held it de-
spite the fact that the visitors staged
a desperaterally in the first half of the
ninth and came within one of tying the
score.
Topeka's main weakness yesterday,
as was the case in the opening game,
was in the wildness of her pitchers,
rather than poor fielding and batting.
The Topeka team outhit the Nets al
most two to one yesterday and made
issued six free passes and Stipp hand
ed out two more. Then Muskogee hit
the old pill and won.
Yendes Had One Bad Inning.
On the other hand. Yendes did some
sensational work in the box. Until
the fourth inning he held the Nets
hitIess. Then he walked three men,
which, with three hits and a fielder's
choice netted five runs. After the
fourth, Yendes, who is one of the
youngsters Manager Cooley picked up
from the semi-pro ranks at Kansas
City. settled down and allowed the
Nets only two more hits.
After Topeka had scored a run in
the second inning. Yendes himself
started the way to another pair of
counters in the third inning by park
ing the ball over the left field fence
for a home run. Rose. the Topeka
left fielder. hit a double. and Books
kopf hit the ball safely twice. Every
man on the Topeka team obtained a
hit except Strohm, Hardy and Stipp
and the latter was at bat only once.
