Shepherd BIitzkriegs
For Two Innings 10
Conquer Wilson

Coming from behind with a bang
after losing an early lead, Shepherd
pounded Hal Ifshin in the fifth and
sixth innings yesterday and walked
off the East Ellipse diamond with a
1914 victory over Wilson Teachers
College.
Trailing 2-3 going into the fifth,
the visitors combined singles by Mil
Ter, Huffman and Woodson with two
walks and an error for five runs, a
double steal adding to the Teachers
confusion. Shepherd iced the game
in the next inning on three doubles
by Gamer, Huffman and Lally for
three more runs.
Only in one inning did Wilson
score more than once and in that
frame, the fourth, two errors helped
them to two runs. After Hart
walked, both hands were safe when
Riggleman threw wild on Gcrdon's S
grounder and Jake Lewis single
scored Hart. Riggleman made a per-
feet peg on Lancaster's bounder to
get Gordon coming home, but
Catcher Kline forgot to tag the run
ner.
Lewis of Wilson's was the games
batting leader with four for five.

Unless D. G. S.-a young, eAthu-

power to spare.
