Sington CloutS Homer.

ALL happened like this:
With two down in the second,
Mr.. Fred Sington, the substitute out
fielder, banged home run into the
same peWs that gleefully swallowed
the subsequent Sox socks. 1t was
Freddies first homer of the year.
Wes enjoyed that lead only brief
period. Opening the Chicago third,
Luke SeWell doubled down the right
field line, took third on Lyons loop
ing single to left, and scored when
Bozle Berger drilled a hit over Sec
ond base. This tied it at IL.
Ferrell got Radclif to open the
fourth and then Appling teed off and
drove into the stands. Dykes followed,
making it 81, and Wes was willing
to let it go at that for Pet then
doubled and Lyons walked after
SeWell went out. Bergers smash to
short finally was converted into the
third out.
Not all the drama in this round was
confined to home run hitting. Those
two smashes and Piet's double made
Ferrell kick viciously at the mound
and when he resumed pitching, his
nrst delivery to SeWell forced the
catcher to hit the dirt Rising to his
feet, SeWell directed some caustic re-
marks to Ferrell, and for a moment it
looked as if a measure of extra cur
rlcular activity was in order. Luke

he trotted back to the dugout he re-
