THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY MAY 20, BRINGING UP F 1F YOU ARE IN SUCH PAIN, LL GET A DOCTOR- VETS AND ELKS BATTLE TO TIE IN 8 INNINGS l)arknes;—‘E;lds 3t 3 Game Last Night—One of Most Exciting of Year In the most exciting game of| th> season, the American Legion and Elks last night battled to a 3-3 dogfall in an eight inning game that was called by Umpire Lotts- feldt as the twilight shadows gath- | ered over City Park, and the small- est crowd of cash customers of the year went home satisfied if not content, Manning and Nello, opposing moundsmen, heaved beautiful ball and with perfect support the Vets would have won by a two to one score. Nello had one bad inning, | the second, when an error, two hits and two passes gave the Legion- naires three runs. Only One More Hit Aside from that frame, he had the Vets eating out of his hand. They registered a single in the eighth after two men were out.! The other six innings they were blanked in the hit column. He wi given splendid support, | par 1y in the outfield. And Tom Haines, out for the first time, made a circus catch of Bob Boyd's long fly to right in the eighth that probably saved the game. Had he missed, it would have been good for two bases any way, and he could have scored on Worth’s sin- gle that came a little later. Manning, while yielding 10 hits, kept them well scattered. Two of |© them were rather scratchy, dus to slow work by Stedman at third. The way was paved for two out of three of the Elks' scores by er- rors by Worth at second, who had three miscues charged against him. Vets' Big Inning The second was the ex-soldiers’ big inning. Worth was safe at first when Garn juggled his roller down third-base line. Manning singled cleanly to left, advancing the Vet manager to second. Allen drew a pass to put the bases on a| jag. This unsettled Nello who walked Ledbetter on four straight pitches, forcing Worth over the plate with the: first run of the game. With the bags still loaded, Rodenberg cracked out a timely single to right center and Manning and Allen scored. Nello tightened up then, fanned Stedman, forced Roller to ground out, Garn to Little Mac, and then proved his gameness by fanning Boyd for the third out with two runners on the paths. After that inning but one Le- gionnaire saw first until the eighth. Boyd reached the initial sack in the fifth with two out when Haines dropped his fly to right center aft- er a fine effort. But Andrews left him stranded when he took three healthy swings and missed Nello’s submarine delivery. Tt was Andy’s second successive strikeout. In the eighth, after two were out, Andy walked and Worth singled. Manning fanned, the umpire calling the last two strikes. Elks Tie in Sixth The Vets presented the Elks with one run in the fifth. Garn singled to right center, getting his second successive hit. Jernberg grounded to the mound. Manning snapped the ball to second with a setup for a double killing in sight. But Werth dropped the ball and both hands were safe. Nello flew out to right, Garn advancing to sec- ond after the catch. Haines fanned but Blake poled out a single to right center, scoring Abby. Jern- berz went to second. Worth took Baker's grounder and tossed him out at first to retire the side. = Bills knotted the count in the sixth. Big Mac went out, Worth to Andrews to open the inning. Little Mac shot a grounder at Rol- ler at short, The ball took a bad hop, but Roller speared it after a short juggle. His throw was too high and Molly was safe. Erskine’s slow roller down third base line went for a hit when Stedman came in slow. Garn's long fly was snar>d by Allen in center. Jernberg Gets Triple Tren Bob Jernberg, ex-Veteran who was roleased Wednesday by Maniger Worth and who was signed immediately by the Elks, got his revenge. He slammed one to right for three bases, scoring Little Mac’ and Erskine, to tie the count in a knot. Nello-fanned for the third out. ATHER ILL GET DOCTOR ILLIAN C DO THAT. | CANT EVEN STAND ON ME FOOT. ¥ DOCTOR THE S0C o % singled to open the frame. Blake hopped one to second. Worth was }slow in getting over to it and tried fto take the ball with one hand. He muffed it and juggled it so long | both men were in sanctuary. Bak- er's best was a fly to center that Allen gobbled up. Worth took Big | Mac’s hopper on the run and threw him out at first to retire the side. Again in the eighth the Bills got two men on the bases but lacked the scoring punch. Little Mac open- ed by going out, Worth to An-| drews. Erskine singled sharply to right. Worth made a mess of Garn’s grounder to second, putting }qu men on. Manning forced Jern- berg to ground to the box, throw- ing him out at first, Erskine and | Garn advancing. Then Jimmy fan- ned for the third out, ending the | first overtime game of the year. | Ends in Dogfall | The game: VETS— Stedman, 3b | Roller, ss | Boyd ¢, Andrews, Worth, 2b Manning, p Allen, cf Ledbetter, Tf ‘R,obenberg. i Totals ELKS— | Haines, Blake, ¢ Baker, 2b ... | McSpdn, H., ss | McSpdn, M., 1b Erskine, cf Garn, 3b Jernberg, 1f Nello, p 8 cCooONRONNO R OHNOO®O -~ 1b comrmrooood ccormoocool ~ooowoo~=ol rf Totals Summary: earned runs, Vets Elks 1; three base hit, Jernberg bas2s on balls, off Nello 3; struck| ut, by Manning 8, by Nello 8; left on bases, Vets 6, Elks 7; stolen bases, Rodenberg 1.

NO, GAME HUNT! “Sonny” Lund is proudly exhibit- a recent fishing trip to a big game hunt. “Sonny” 1s one of those lads on whom the lure of the outdoos has a firm and pulling grip. When he can't persuade his dad, Jack Lund, who in newspaper parlance | puts the Daily Alaska Empire “to bed” every evening, to go with him, he gets up before dawn and hits for the hills with rod and gun. Such was the case recently, and along with him joyfully romped his dog. Well up the Salmon Creek trail a grumpy old bruin waddled out from the brush and “Pooch” with a menacing bark courageously charged him. Nettled, this particular bear which looked according to “Sonny” like a cross - breed, a little | Glacter, “a little Brown, and per- |naps a dash of Black, stopped, awaited “Pooch’s” onslaught, until within paw's reach and gave him haymaker that sent the dog groggily spinning; to land with a thud in the woods.
