BURLINGTON SMOTHERS ELKS UNDER 14-1 SCORE SUNDAY: TEXAS DEFEATS STANDARDS Smothering the strong Elka nine under a veritable avalanche of base hits, and socking eight runs across the pan in a single inning, the league leading Burlington outfit defeated their opponents in the second game of Sunday's doubleheader at High School Athletic park by a final score of 14 to 1. The. lone Elk tally came in the first inning and was unearned, hay- ing been scored by Byrum, lodge shortstop, as a result of errors by y and Mullen of the Burlington eam. The railroaders got busy from the word go and got to Gos- nell, Elks pitcher, for a double, a triple and a home run in the first inning. ‘These three swats account- ed for two runs. Fritts was respon- sible for the circuit when his long hit bounced cleanly over the left field wall. Sunday's victory makes the Bur- lington’s hold on the top rung of the ladder a gecure one. The outstand- ing feature of the contest was the superb pitching of Ray for the Bur- lington. The little lefthander whiffed 13 men, fielded his position with accuracy and allowed only four widely scattered hits. His team- mates got to the three Elks pitchers, Gosnell, Waitman and Layman for 14 safe blows. Five erors by the Elks helped the rallroaders to run up their great lead. Fritts, MeNeil and Dyer, batting in that order in the Burlington line- up proved to be the big stick wield- ers of the day, accounting for 10 of their team’s 14 hits, and scoring eight of the 14 runs. Dyer also had an excellent day in center field, accepting two very difficult chances and delivering the goods. Layman, who entered the box for the Elks with the game hopelessly lost, pitched fairly good ball and whiffed five of the Q’s swatters. In the opener, the Texas team came back strong in the fifth and sixth innings of the seven-inning contest and administered a decisive drubbing to the strong Standard nine. ‘The final score was 9 to 5. Bill Eads, pitching for the Standard, got away in great style but weak- ened in the fifth inning and called in Fitzpatrick, Fitz proved to be a good relief pitcher and struck out three men for the retiring of the side. Ronaldson held the Standard well in check until the first half of tho fifth frame when the Red Crown lads drove him to the showers with four counters. Loggy finished the game for the Texans and pitched good ball. Cc, Sherry, Zoble and tader were the stars with the stick.
