It was a thriller that made the fans forget the damp, cold weather, Erskine went the route for the Paps, while Manning, who was in- cffective and hit rather hard, gave way to Junge in the fourth. The latter allowed but one hit, and the | run scored off him was a gift made possible by an error. Boyd Keeps Up Hitting Boyd, Elks' backstop who is lead- ing the league in hitting, clouted the pill at a terrific clip last night. In the four trips to the plate he drove out three hits, a homerun, a two bagger and a single. His fourth effort was a high fly to left cen- ter which with less elevation could casily have cleared the park. He boosted his average to .514, and that's real hitting in any man’s| ague. Erskine started in fine form, Nie- mi popping out to short and Roller fanning.

He was held at sec- ond by Roller who drove him back to the bag and then threw out Erskine at first. Manning had a lapse and failed to cover first on Bill Schmitz’s hopper, and Murray Bill stole second. But Murray, who tried to score on ithe play was nipped at the plate by Junge’s fine return. Fred Schmitz singled to center for his second hit of the day. Bill Schmitz tried to score but was cut down on a relay throw, Niemi to {Tuns, none of which were of the| earned variety.

Jack Schmitz flew to left center and Niemi, who made a long run to get under the ball, dropped it while Little Mac’ scored. . Roller threw out Nello to end the inning. The Elks went hitless and score- less in the second, although An- drews was presented with first base when Umpire Kirk ruled he was entitled to it on a balk.

Big Mac' dropped ,the third strike and threw wild to first. Roller tried to stretch the gift to two bases and was caught at second. Had he played it safe Boyd's double might have sent him home: The Moose added another in the third nining. Little Mac’ opened with a triple to right center and scored off a wild pitch. Manning walked the next two batters but they failed to register. Junge Relieves Manning After Erskine again blanked the Elks in the fourth, Junge went to the mound, Manning going to left, and Rodland to second. Only three men faced him in that frame. Rol- ler threw out Erskine at first, An- drews gobbled Bill Schmitz's pop fly and Clarke made a fine running catch of Fritz Schmitz's fly to right. The Elks were presented with an- other goose egg in the fifth. The Moose scored the fifth and last tally in their half. Ramsay was safe when Roller missed his turf- cutter at short, but was forced out by Little Mac’. The latter stole second and scored from there on Big Mac's single to right. Elks Stage Rally The Bills staged a rally in the sixth which came within one of tying the score in a knot. Boyd ‘ed off with a single, his third hit for the day, and the seventh in his last eight trips to the plate. Manning’s shot to third was boot- sd’ by Murray, Boyd advancing a yage with Jimmy safe at first. Rod- ‘and picked out one of Erskine’s ast balls and drove it to right cen- ser for three bases, Boyd and Jim- ny scoring. Junge tried hard but his fly was snared by Nello in center.

ELKS MUST WIN SUNDAY IF TOP PLAGE IS HELD Bills Face Much Stronger Vet Lineup Tomorrow in Crucial Game If the Elks expect to stay out in front in the City League pennant chase, they have to win Sunday's game in which they will be faced by an American Legion team that is much stronger than any lineup the Vets have had in the field since the season opened. The Bills today were leading the pack by a mere one-half game, with the fast-speeding Moose treading on thelr heels. If they win tomorrow they will be a full game to the good, and have two more games to play. The Moose have the same number, and Sunday’s game will be the tenth for the Vets, who, by the way, lhave no where to go in particular in this half. But they will take the field Sun- day fit to meet either of the lead- ers. Every regular except Ted Kea- ton will be on hand. In addition, they have Denny McLaughlin, pitcher, catcher or infielder as the need arises, and Brunes, infielder, to stiffen their ranks. whose record at third base is as good as any in the league, will be out again. This all means the Bills have a hard game ahead Sun- day.
