bed the Free Lunches. occurred Mon
dav afternoon. The Free Lunches
triulnphed after a hard fight. Z to 3.
The score was tied at Ball at the
end of the fifth, but Oswald Austin
didn't have the success with the
Regulars that Johnny Mitchell did
and three tallieS in the sixth spilled
the beans.
Mitchell twirlcd five innings and
held the Regulars to three hits. He
had lots Of stuff. but there was a
dlSconcerting tendency to wildncss in
his performance. With control.
Mitchell will show Texas Leaguers
something.
"Rubc" Marshall travelled five
frames for the Free Lunches and was
peppered by the scrubs. but managed
to get by without being scored upon
until the fifth frame, when three ial-
lies crossed. "Rube" was bothered
by a heavy cold and a murky after
noon, he said. Bob Couchman fin
lshed the seven-inning game for the
REGULARS in impressive fashion.
