BALTIMORE, Oct. 4.-The third

tween Baltimore of the international
league, and st. Paul, of the American
association was called at the end of
the thirteenth inning this afternoon
on account Of darkness, the score stand
ing tied at six all
1t was a wild and woody game,
starting out as farce and ending
in a great pitching duel between Tom
my Thomas Of the Orioles, who re-
lieved Jackson in the fourth inning,
and Paul Fittery, a left-hander, who
was sent 10 the rescue Of Tony Faeth
in the sixth inning.
The Orioles played miserably at the
start, helping the Saints to six runs
on bases on balls, errors, wild pitch
and several slow thinking plays. Only
three hits figured in these half dozen
runs. In the sixth inning the Birds
rallied and tied the score by scoring
three runs OH singles by Jacobs and
Freitag, a sacrifice fly by Thomas and
a home run over the left field fence
by Fritz Maisel From this inning the
Birds were n different ball club, back
ing up Thomas in fine style.

ENSLEY BEATS
DISQUE SQUAD
--a------4------~----
Marston Stars As Yellow
Jackets Win,
20 To 0

The Yellow Jackets defeated the
Disque eleven yesterday at Redwood
| by score of 20 to 0. Coach Whites
elan not only showed their ability "a
plunge the opposing line but also theiI
own line showed good training In de-
Tense The main trouble with Coach
rip" Rcagan's Disque eleven seemed
to be in the line, although the back
field seemed to be very good. They did
not seem to show n fighting spirit that
the Etowah eleven showed against
Phillips In the morning.
Marston starred all during the game.
He intercepted passes, made end runs
and plunged the line. with good results,
to say nothing Of giving excellent inter-
ference when others ran.
In the first quarter Dis1ue made It's
best stand. They started with a kick
off which, when 1t was received BY
EnsIey, they advanced for 70 yards.
They then battled back and forth for
some time, neither side getting the better
of the argument. When the first touch
down was made 1t was by Marston, from
about the yard line LOwery failed
to kick the goal.
Manley Shows Well
The second quarter opened with the
ball on Disque's is yard line. From
there Ensley carried 1t TO the 40 yard
line with series Of en- runs, in which
Manley showed up well. Lowety
kicked a field goal Disque reaceived
and failing to make head way punted.
Manley received the punt and advanced
TO the 10 yard line and q touchdown
followed. The half ended with the
score 10 to U.
Disque kicked off to open the SECOND
half Ensley swept the Gadsden boys
off their feet with several end runs
and Lowery plunged through center for
touchdown. Marston kicked for
point. In n short time the Yellow
Jackets again had the Disque team re-
treating and with n strong end run,
Marston put the ball over and boosted
the score again with a kick for point.
The qaurter ended with the score ~
to 0. :,
In the last period Disque came back
to earth and played foot ball. The
Ensley team was not 40 fast during the
period and neither side scored.
The big boys that Coach Rip Reagan
brought down outweighed the Yellow
Jackets n good deal but were slow and
not MS experienced. Ensley's team is
unusually fast and most Of the veterans
of last years team are back.
IIaggard, Disque's fullbaek, was in
jured in the game, but an examination
at n local hospital revealed that no
bones were broken and that the injury
was not serious.
The line ups for the afternoon game
were
For Ensley-Zeigler and McGOnagle,
ends Borden and Scott, tackles; Robin
and Fayette, guards; Hardy, center !;
Manley, quarter; Marston and Jock
