CT for the Islanders, opened the Douglas half with his second single. ! A steal put him on second from where Bonner's infield out moved him to third. Then the Douglas skipper, Big AnGy" Andrews drove his runner home with a grounder to second. Andrews was out at first but Douglas had come from behind to win.
 Paps Opesi Scoring
 A walk and a wild throw that went for an unearned run set the Moose off in the lead in the second inning; but their lead held only into the last of the following stanza, when the left side of the prize Moose infield, together for the first time this season with the return of Joe Werner to third base. combined two errors to let that troublesome lad Grant across with marker for the Islanders.
 But right back came the Moose, and. in their next time at the plate took the lead again with the one run advantage that they were to hold till the unhallowed ninth. It was a we'll earned marker that the Moose chalked up in the first of the fourth Tom Martin was the lead-off hitter that inning, and free pass put him on first Then Joe Snow justified his cleanup spot in the batting order with the only extra base blow of the game, a beautiful two-base drive through the left field fence, putting Martin on third. From there he scored on Jack Schmitz' sharp drive to shortstop.
 Then, on through five scoreless innings the game Jagged with the Moose making additional threats in the sixth, and again in the seventh when a walk and a single spelled the end of the line for Dave Tur- ner, the Islanders starting mounds man. Claude Erskine took over and filled the bases with walk before he could find the range, but halted the push by flaming Schmitz.
 Big Crowd on Hand From then on both pitchers ap- parently had all well under control, and sensing no more fireworks the large crowd on hand began to break up, ready to drift away as the sum- shine faded only to be brought back to the sideliineS as the added in- nings came along.
 Strikeouts were more the order of the day than hits, Turner counting thirteen, Erskine eight and Smith ten, but Martin managed to rap out two singles in four trips to the plate for the Moose, while Jimmy Man ming and recruit Grant each got two singles in five attempts to pace the Douglas attack Jack Schmitz, though able to connect safely only once drove home both the Pap runs.
 Grant, who just arrived here yes- terday, after playing ball up to last weekend for the Whidby Island nine in the Kitsap County, Wash ington, loop, fitted nicely into the hole behind the bat for the Island- CTS and won a permanent position with heads-up catching job and sprightly base running that counted large in his scoring two of the three Island runs. With Grant donning the big mitt and pads, Pinkley was turned loose to go into the outfield, from where he moved to shortstop to finish the game.
 Several mighty nice plays found their way into the game to atone for the array of blunders. Outstanding was Martins catch and heave to first for the Paps' double play in the eleventh. while no less dazzling was Jensen's tumbling catch into the right field bleachers during the first inning, in which he accounted for all three putouts for the Island CTS. Werner, on his first time out nearly evened off his two miscues with pair of sweet stops and dem- onstrated that his siege-gun peg to first is still in fine working order.
 With Fritz Schmitz a possibility to be back in harness at second, the Black Sox' blue-ribbon infield machine of last season may be back together again to help pull the Paps up once more on even terms with the Islanders in tonight's encoun- ter, which is scheduled to get under way at 6:30 o'clock at Firemen's Park.
