The final score was Blks 5, Alaska Junean 2. Just as the game began a heavy rain made its appearance and kept up steadily until the contest was more than half over. In spite of thd weather a good brand of ball was exhibited, and a large number of spectators were on hand to watch the Elks win their first mixup. With the exception of that one inning, the pitchers were the cen- ter of attraction, Andrews having a slight edge over MacSpadden. Each allowed but two. hits, each had one strikeout, but Andy walk- ed only three, while Biz Mac passed five, had one wild pitch c¢halked up against him and was responsible for one batter being hit. The muckers scored in the first when Watts, second man up, was passed to first. He stole second and Jackson, in an attempt to get him at second, hit Watts on the shoulder. The ball went over the second baseman’s head and Scott, who backed him up, let the peg go throngh and Watts continued to third. He scored a moment later when Koski failed to hold Habenicht's fly to left field. Mec- Closkey was out, Andrews to Jackson, and Habenicht was tag- ged at third a moment later on Blake's throw to Henning. Blake, first man up for the Bills in the third, hit a clean single inside first base. He went to second when Big Mac threw a close one to the plate, the ball go- ing past Little Mac as Coughlin, batter, jumped aside to let the ball past. The catcher did not have a fair chance at the ball. Coughlin was safe at first when Robertson threw wild to first, PBlake going to third on the play. Robertson, third base, and Bent- Jey, rightfield, switched positions. Coughlin stole second. Barragar walked, filling the bases, with no men out.

Andrews was on first, and the bases were still loaded. Coughlin scored when Jackson was passed to first. Bar- ragar, Andrews and Jackson scor- ed on a long drive into left field by Henning, which was good for two bases. Koski fouled out to Little Mac, Scott flew out to Hollmann and Sabin was out, Big Mac to Habenicht, in the fifth, the Miners made but a single tally. Bensom, first up, was given life at first when An drews muffed his high fly. Bent- ley flew out to Henning who threw Benson out at first on a freak double. Orme walked and went to second on M. MacSpad- den’s grounder past third. Each advanced a base when Watts hit a long single into left field, load- ing the sacks. Little Mac tinued to third and Orme scored when Watts' hit, which Koski was unable to reach, rolled between his legs.
