Organized labor put on a big
show for the Tigers last night
and leaders, enthusiastic over the
showing made in the initial base
ball effort, vowed to make it an
even bigger event next season.
Wei over 5000 fans-one
Of the largest crowds of the
season-saw the Spokane In
dams divide a twin bill 3 to 1
and to 2, with the Tacoma
Tigers, and also saw a nine
composed Of business agents
90 through a hilarious inning
with the Bengals.
A highlight of Organized Labor
night was a presentation of an
autographed ball by the business
agents of the city to II. S. Nc
nvaigh, secretary of the Central
Labor council, who was a guest
of honor.
All in all Labor has a right to
be proud of its show. And did
they root and toot for the home
teami
Ray Medeghini, who is pitching
grand ball now, won the first one,
9 to 1, against O'Flynn and An
drews, allowing only four blows.
The Tigers big inning was the
third when Medeghini hit a homer
over left and Firpo socked a homer
with two on. That was five runs.
Three more runs came in the sew
enth, the last frame, to add to one
scored in the first.
The Indians staged big session
in the fourth with four runs, the
Tigers having trouble hitting Reid.
That is, until the ninth. Four hits,
including a homer by Firpo, ac-
counted for two runs and the be-
ginning of a rally. But Bremen
hit into a double play.

Lefty" Isekite, the home town
boy who has been nearly in
Uncible during the last few
months, will go to the mound
tonight in an effort to give the
Tigers bulge in their series
with the Spokane Indians, which,
as far as Tacoma is concerned,
will be completed with a game at
the Sprague avenue lot at SIS
o'clock tonight.
Chances are that Isekite win
face George Duke" Windsor,
In which case the Tacoma
fans will see one Of the
fossiest pitching duels of the
season, providing that both
boys are right.
After tonight's contest, the
Tigers and Indians will move to
Spokane for four games over the
weekend.
Then the Tigers will return
home for two games on Labor
day with the Wenatchee Chiefs.
The regular season will be wound
