Meritorious pitching by Fred
Radon coupled with wonderful
generosity displayed by Waterloo
In the field. enabled the islanders.
to win yesterday and even the ser
tes with the Hawks. The score
was Z to 3.
Radon had only three wob3ly
innings. but he was effective
enough to hold the Waterloo slug
gers down to normally In the face
OF threatened disaster each time.
They got to him for two hits ana
run in the first inning and sweet
ened this by two in the sixth on two
hits and q stroll In the ninth two
singles cropped up after one was
gone but they caused no harm.
In the meantime the islanders
we're doing some tall smuggling IN
their own behalf and graciousiy ac-
,cepted all donations. One biz
round, the third. when 10 batters
faced Lefty" Lindner, one OF Pat
Ragan's aces, resulted in quintet
of scores, amply sufficient Tor Frea
to worry along on.
The Islanders scored a run IN
each of the fifth and eighth in
.nings without any stick display.
Both times errors forced the run
ner around to the registering sta
ton. and even in the third bad
throws had much to do with netting
five runs in spite of the fact that
the islanders got five hits.
O'Shea made things look bad
for Radloff at the very sf"rt wv
driving a double to right field. He
reached third when pitch escaped
Ole Swanson and scored on Newell s
single to right field. Wally stole
second and reached third on wild
mitch but was out trying to pull
the double steal with McEwan, who
had received free ticket to first
Radloff allowed. only one hit in
the next four innings. CaUe the
sixth and a single to center by
Church with one down. Newell
drew a base. Leach, doubled to cen
ter, scoring Church. Valley count

that there seemed slight chance Of
Radloff wavering with the game ap'
parently we'll in hand.

In the fifth Swanson was sal
