Algonquin followed about the same pattern to get a run in their half of the first. R. Tipps doubled to left, moved to third on Moehle's bunt to Hiller and scored on a hit by Boyd.

Art Jackson dropped a fly ball Mavis sent a pretty well hit drive to center in the sixth and the ball popped out of Art's glove. It might be added that a group of spectators with squatters' rights didn't help Art keep his eye on Ihe ball. They didn't interfere, but their presence didn't help Art's chances. No hits followed but Mavis scored the final run for his team. Tommy Huemann drew his sect> 0d walk to open the se^nth and was forced at second on a fielder's Choice by Joe Jackson. A tWobagger by Hiller put Joe on third. Katz supplied the punch to score both runners, but had the misfortune of twisting an ankle while diving back to first base. Katz had to leave the game, after a perfect day at bat, and Marsh ran for him. The scoring was all finished for the day, but the umps were still in there making the battle hotter by the minutt, ? .
