Besides holding the enemy . hitless and runless, Hoffman had perfect control, striking out eighteen of the twenty-one men to fac~ him, and did not walk a man. Not satisfied with that, he also set a new record in t· he Wilmette . Indoor league when he fanned eleven men in a row. Two weeks ·ago, Jimmy Hoffman came near this feat when he held the hard hitting Ridge Electric team, who are at present the Wilmette indoor champions, hitless until the final inning when two hits and an error combined scored two runs, making them one shy of the Ice team's total. At present these two teams hold the lead, and they will bid for honors next We~nesday night at the Village Green. A grueling battle is expected. 3-PC.
