VETS SWAMP MODSE NINE Take Lead in City League by Winning Unusual- ly Ragged Contest In a comedy oi errors, in which the umpires as well as thg play- ers took a part, the American Legion ball players swamped the Mcose outfit 13 to 4 in a seven- inning affair played last evening. As a result cf the victory Vets now lead the league, while the Moose e in third position. Three umpires were employed at first base. Scott held the hon- ors first, and then gave way to Sorri, who messed things up pret- ty badly by making a poor de- cision at second base, calling a runner safe when he was caught twe feet off the bag, and later calling cut a runner at first, whom the fans believed was safe. Sorri was replaced by Coughlin, who lasted the remainder of the gontest. Ted Keaton was the big stick- er who put the game on fce. " Heé collected three singles and a double in four trips to the plate, driving in a total of 5 runs, while he scored 4 times himself, thus being responsible for 9 runs. Moose Score First It looked like a game for the Moose when the first inning was completed. On three singles and three Legion errors, which were costly, the Paps shoved across four markers. In the same inning the Vets were blanked, as were the Mvose in all the remainder of the game, for they managed to collect only four hits from Manning after the opening canto, while the Vets settled down and played errorless ball for the rest of the game. Thes Moose weakened consider- ably in the second inning and made five bungles, which with one Vet bingle, let over two runs. Contining in the third, the Vets went on a hitting rampage which netted them four bingles, and three runs, putting them one run in the lead. Score Some More Three more runs were shoved home in the fourth on four hits and two Moose errors. Not con- tent with this amount of chalk- ers they brought out their sticks again in the sixth, and put over five runs on three hits and two errors by the opposition. The Paps looked foolish in this in- ning as in most of the game, for thetr' pitcher was performing none too well and they gave him tmall encouragement either in the handling of the ball or in brainwork.
