THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1921 PRES. ZIPF WATCHES HOME BOYS TRIUMPH Village President Display. Keen In. terest in Success of the A. C'si Specie! Holiday BUI â€"-â€"By A Fenn Wilmette won its fifth game of the season Sunday, trimming the Ajax of Chicago, 7 to 4, in a slow game. The affray dragged out for over two hours due to the fact that a new and untried hall and strike arbitra- tor handled the indicator. This per- sonage was totally lacking as to the knowledge of the national pastime, and as a result of his ignorance, a game which started out to be corker was turned into a farce. However, there were times when the fans were given opportunities to vent their enthusiasm, one in par- ticular coming in Wilmette's half of the seventh stanza. With the score in Wilmette^s favor 3 to 2 and the bases loaded, "Chuck" Del.ong, our slugging short stop, wrapped his "trusty willow around the pill and knocked in three runs, pulling up at third base himself- It wail a mighty wallop and put the game on ice for b<* home boys. Before the inning terminated four markers had been chalked on the credit side of the led- ger for Wilmette. The visitors caused a ripple of ex- citement in their half of the final inning when the first three men up •mg;cd. The fourth man hit a rol- er to "Lefty".Van Disne, who hurled "<>r the home team, which should have been a starter for double play, Lefty, though was somewhat rattled by the hits that were whizzing past him and pegged slowly to Robinson, who Was standing on the plate, letting the man score when "Spikes" dropped the throw. The next man struck out but the one following hit to Saunders, who in his haste to make al dtuble killing, foozled, and before he could recover, another run had scored leaving the bases still thickly populated. Here the boys stopped tlie opposition and the Hade ended with a long fly to "Ed- die" Braun in left "field. Play Fast Games Among those on hand to give the home team a boost was Village Pres- ident. Zipf. If our president can take a little time off to see the ball game, why cannot you come out and give the team your support? It is wanted and needed.
