nom singled, Sticking reaching third.
Merville sent a long fly to Mat
thews and Sticking raced home from
third after the catch to end the
struggle.
Moss allowed only six hits and
Swetonic eight, with the latter
showing far better control. The
Tribe hurler did not issue a pass
while Moss walked six Indians.
Steve famed three and Malcolm
one, and the Colonel hurler had one
wild pitch.
The teams were to meet in the
third conflict of the series today
and on Sunday the Indians will end
their visit and return to Indian
apolis Sunday night. Monday is an
off day for the Tribesmen to allow
time for the long trip to st. Paul
where their last western swing will
start Tuesday.
It has been many a day since
Louisville fans have been so fortunate
as to see such a mound duel as was
put on by Moss and Swetonic.
Swetonic was seldom in trouble until
the final inning. On the other hand
Moss was constantly in hot water
and but for double plays concocted
and properly carried out by the re-
mainder of the nine the Hoosiers
would have made a run away with
the Friday contest in the early in
nings.
In salvaging the Friday contest
the Colonies saved themselves the
embarrassment of landing in the
A. A. cellar by half game.
Ralph Miller proved his dexterity
by playing left field. Layne. the
regular Tribe left fielder, was in
jured slightly and Bethel gave him
a day off. The very first thing that
Miller did was to reach over into
the bleachers and pull down a long
foul by Sticking. Even the regular
outfielders never do that, for it is
too dangerous.
The only extra base hit of the
game was double by Generously
to left in the eighth inning.

Attempting Fraud

pinched him in the hall. The court
attendant talked to the Judge. The
judge talked to Mrs. Friedman.

case to court.

in court ready to testify that Hyman
had never spoken to their knowl-
edge Seven reputable physicians
had examined the boy in a vain ef-
fort to make him talk. The judge
himself talked to Hyman for A
minutes in his chambers but could
draw no syllable from him. But

question, Hyman answered.
