scoring on the play. Clarke con- tinued to second and Stewart took home when Anderson tossed the ball wildly to the pitcher, who was GOV ering first.

 Barons Add Another
 The Barons added still another in the third and reached six tallies in the totals. Silva bunted towards first. outran the peg for safety and stole second. He came home when Robby doubled into left. Ripperton made a game try for this drive and turned complete somersault in an effort to make running shoe string catch.
 The Lookouts got a man on second and third with nobody down in the first of the fourth, but Whitehill frightened up and retired Reed, Stephenson and Morris in order. He would have pulled out of another hole in the sixth without a score. but for an error on the part of Tommy Taylor. Clayton started the sixth with ripping three-bagger. Stewart dove for Neiderkorn's lin- CT and captured 1t. Reed was a strikeout victim and Stephenson hit to Taylor. who threw wildly to frs. as Clayton came home. Morris drew a pass. but Burkett closed out the inning with a leaping catch of Cro1Is line smash.
 Morris Driven Out
 The Barons got busy with a real vengeance in their half of the sixth. Six runs were scored on six hits, all hands batting around and Morris being driven to the showers. Claude Robertson started the inning off with his second double of the day and he was up at bat again when the inning closed on Burkett's fail ure in attempting to steal second. In this frame Robby got his two- sacker. Whitehill got single, Stewart single. Neun two-ply smash. Harper a base on balls, Silva a single and Burkett a single. Aft CT the latter had smashed out an immaculate blow to center, Eddie Mcdonald threw up his hands in despair. chased the lanky Morris to the showers and sent Ripperton into pitch, while George Cunningham trotted out to left to finish the game.
 An Inffeld Two BaEger
 One ot the most peculiar plays seen at Redwood this year came up in .his frame, when Johnny Neun got an lnfield two-bagger. Johnny hit the ball on the ground and Morris tried to field it. deflecting the ball. It slSidded through Stephenson's hands. and the Lookout shortsmith and Ed die Mcdonald lost it on the infield. By the time they had located the pel- let again the wing footed Neun had tagged second. Burkett brought the slaughter to . halt on his attempted steal.
 While Ripperton was not hammer cd with the viciousness of his prede- cessor tho Barons managed to bag a couple or tallies of his delivery-one in the seventh and another in the eighth. A base on balls to Robertson. who was coming up to make a try at his fourth hit, a single by whitehill and Stuffy Stewart being hit in the back by pitched ball placed three men on in the seventh. The Barons were all run down by this time. however, and were able to score but ono tally. Neun came through with u sacrifice fly to center and Clarke and Taylor were infield outs.
 Ripperton gave the Barons their final tally in the eighth. With Harper on third and Burkett on first, he com- mitted the balk and the umps bade 'em move up a peg. The Lookouts thcn brought the inning to close on a snappy double play Reed to Stephenson.
 Moley gave Tooter Brandon a little catching exercise after Robby had worked himself down, due to excess sive baserunning. Tooter caught the last two innings.
 Lookouts Wake Up
 With such big lead Whitehall grew a bit careless In the eighth and allowed couple of runs. A base on balls to Clayton Niederkorn's sec ond two-hagger of the pastime and couple of ,nfield outs on which scores were made allowed em to make the two tallies. Niederkorn did the heft- test batting for the Lookouts, getting a couple of doubles out of four times up, while Manager Mcdonald hit safely out of three times up and drew two passes to boot.
