.LAIRD'S SPECTACULAR
CATCH Of SULLIVAN
FLY FEATURES GAME
Slow Game With Dawson at
Playground Enlivened By
Beautiful Play
OWENS HIT BY PITCHER
Young Hurler Who Relieved
Overstreet Compelled To
Retire By Injury

Laird's spectacular handling of
Sulliyan's fly to center-left in
Thursdays game at the Playground
diamond was worth the prce Of
admission to what was otherwise a
slow game. The diamond was mud
DIV in the beginning, and great piles
of sawdust piled about the bases
and home plate failed to altogether
take away the dampness. The
mound from which Ovrestreet be-
gan to hurl was q mess of mud
that kept the pitcher continually
off his feet, and there were Other
difficulties due to heavy rains
which preceded the game.
Overstreet, who began the game
for Americas, was barted heavily
and Owen went in to relieve him
in the second, retiring the lone
batter who faced his slants IN short
order. He was struck by pitched
ball, however, when he came to
bat in the next inning and had tc
retire without again entering the
box. Bradley Hogg was the next
hurler sent in for the locals, but
after brief stay on the mound
he motioned to Big Bill Parsons,
who came in from right. and finish
ed the game. Player succeeded
Parsons in the outer garden an
the high school boy played a good
game, getting two hits, one of these
double, in three times at bat,
and accepting the lone difficult
chance that came his way for q
put-out, handling Sullivan's FLY in
the manner of a veteran.
Hines, former Tech moundsman
pitched steady ball for Dawson
throughout, and the heady handling
of the team by Eddie Rawson, who
wore the mask behind the willow
was noticeable. 1t was the first
appearance Of Uncle Boys" on
an Americas diamond, and the
team, slightly heavier than Amer
icus' made a good impression upon
the fans.
