TDD STRAIGHT DEFEAT OF SEASON % HUNG ON ELGIN BY JESS DAVISON AND HATES Joey Miller Had No Cold and Yet the Watch Citjr Nine Had No Show Backed by his snappy fielding on the part of his mates, Jess Davison was once more able to set down Archie Bennett's nine on the Elgin baseball lot last Sunday afternoon. This was the third straight defeat suffered by the Elgin crew at the hands of the McHenry Grays this season. The score on this occasion was 9 to 3. Elgin, in the hope of trimming the McHenry gang, had rearranged its lineup, put in considerable practice during the week and even went so far as to keep Joey Miller from catching a cold and yet their hopes of hanging just one defeat on our lads went It was indeed a sad day for Elgin and their faithful followers and mast uncomfortable one for Archie Bennett, who isn't any too popular with the fans in the Watch City. The way Davison was going and the support that was tendered him, Elgin didn't have a chance and, to say the least, was very lucky, indeed, to put over three runs. All three of these were gifts in a manner and with Rosier playing the article of ball of which he is capable, the Watchmakers shoud have been shut out. We mention this only because of the fact that some of the Elgin fans and even the sport writers had figured that Mc Henry had all the luck and the breaks all went in our favor. Because of the numerous sparkling plays we will this week give the story of the game by innings, as follows: First Inning: Hosier let two good strikes pass over the pan without offering at them and then struck out on a high and wide one. Kern lifted to E. Lee at short and Toroquist fanned No hits, no runs. Elgin: E. Lee skied to Repas in center.

EMMA MILLER, ; , CATHERINE FREUND, Committee. Bedroom Newness foot paths. Gross was caugjit steal ing and Kingsley struck out. Two hits, two runs. Elgin: Smith shot a single past first, but was caught in a fast double killing when Otis shot a fast one down between first and second. Kern made a pretty play on the ball tagging Smith on his way to second, and then shooting the pill to Raasch to complete the double. Crangle uncorked a single past second and scored on W. Lee's fluky triple into left field. The blow should have been held to a single but Kosier allowed the ball to bound past him for the extra sacks. Evidently the Elgin fans overlooked this break which went in their favor. Olson then walked and stole second while O'Connor was striking out. Three hits, one run. Fifth Inning: Ehnert lifted to Crangle in center. Repas popped to Koepping and Raasch fouled to Olson. No hits, no runs. Elgin: Millar was thrown oat by Gross. Kosier redeemed himself by making a brilliant catch of E. Lee's hard rap into left center and Koepping skied to Gross. No hits, no runs. Sixth Inning: Davison dropped a double over the right field fence. Kosier struck out. Jimmy Smith made a pretty running catch of Kern's drive into short left. Smith made a complete somersault after making the catch, but came up with the ball in his hands. It was easily Elgin's best contribution to the afternoon's matinee. Tornquist walked. At this juncture of the proceedings, Captain Koepping and Billie Lee pulled one for the book. Gross lifted a high fly just back of second base and while the two Elgin infielders were attempting 'to determine which one should haul down the blow, Davison and Tornquist had started to encircle the bases. When the two fielders finally collided and allowed the ball to drop, Davison was across the plate and Tornquist on his way to third. Koepping, however, managed to recover the ball iij time to nail Tornquist at the far corner. One hit, one run. Elgin: Smith was thrown out by Kern. Raasch reached out his gloved hand and pulled down Otis' hard drive which ordinarily would have gone for at least two bases, if not a home run. The McHenry kids sure were showing Elgin some classy baseball. Crangle rolled down to Kern between first and second and just to show Crangle a little speed Kern ran across the bag for the putout. No hits, no runs. Seventh Inning: Kingsley was thrown out by Billy Lee. Ehnert skied to Smith and Repas was thrown out by Koepping. No hits, no runs. Elgin: W. Lee was thrown out by Tornquist. Billy Lee singled to left and then rode home on O'Connor's four-ply spiash to deep left. Kosier misjudged the blow and started coming in on the ball and when he found that he was wrong he started back but too late to avoid the damage. Had Kosier remained where he was in the first place, the ball could have been played for an easy out. This is another break in favor of Elgin that the fans overlooked. Miller and E. Lee both lifted to Repas, who made his usual catches. The fans referred to this as luck. Two hits, two runs. Eighth Inning: With the score tied at three all, McHenry went out to win that old ball game right in this round and this they did. Raasch fouled off a score of balls and then worked Miller into a walk. About this time Miller was beginning to became affected by the heat. He thai hit Davison in the slats. - For a short time it looked as if Jess was out, but he revived and was given a runner. With Raasch on second and Rogers, running for Davison, on first, Kosier laid down a twister along the third base line. E. Lee just couldn't get a toe hold on that old pill and the blow went for a hit. With the bases filled and two strikes called upon him, Kern leaned on one of Joey Miller's fast, ones for a four-p!y smash into deep left. Miller then settled and struck out Tornquist. Gross lifted to E. Lee at third and Kingsley struck out. Two hits, four runs. Elgin: Repas contributed another sensational catch of Koepping's hard drive to left center. Smith Was thrown out by Gross and Otis fanned. No hits, no runs, Ninth Inning: Ehnert was safe on E. I .fee's fumble and went to third on Repas' single past "first. Repas took second on Raasch's out, Miller to O'Connor. Davison's fly to Smith in •coj'ed Ehnert and put Repas on third when Smith's throw to third went vild Repas chen scored on Hosiers single to Wft. Kosier was, forced at second when Kern rolUd to r.. Lee, Two hits two runs. Elgin: Crangle was out, Gross to Raasch. \V. Lte singled to left, tilson went out on a high foul to Raas;h O'Connor put W. Lee on second with a single through short. Anderson, batting for Miller, ended the show by lifting to EJbtB£r,t in right. Tgr^ fcita, n.t niu ' Home runs: O'Connor, Kern. Double play: Kern to Raasch. Note* on the Game One consolation for Manager Bennett it gives him an opportunity to look over some real ball players every time he books McHenry. Well, Joey Miller wasn't suffering from a cold, but ye Elgin sport scribe insists that he sucered from the heat. Yes, the McHenry crew did make it rather warm for him in that eighth. If McHenry could only play Elgin every game of the season, wouldn't it be easy picking for us? McHenry's defense was easily the best that we have seen it this season. The work of Repas, Raasch, Kern and Gross is worthy of special coiffiment. And while dwelling on the work of Kern, well say that he is about the classiest player outside of the big show. If "Khaki" keeps up the speed and dash that he has exhibited thus far this season, he is almost certain of landing a birth in the big show some day. Pavison, the. foxy old master, was right and saw to it that Elgin did not connect too regularly. He is th«r Alexander of the semi-pros and the way that he is going this season seems to indicate that he will be good for at least another year. The fans back of first base started ranting Manager Bennett in the sev- 1' a touch of newness to your Bedroom is a happy , as a visit here will prove.
