Schmitz Steals Home With the score tied in the last of the fourth frame last night, Bill Schmitz, Moose left fielder, stole home with the winning run for the Moose after two men were out and one strike was on the batter. It wasn't really a clean steal as Haines, Elk backstop, dropped the ball, giving Bill time to slide safe- ly across the rubber. It was a see-saw battle with plen- ty of hitting and some sparkling fielding plays to make up for a few errors on each side. The game was called in the fifth on account of darkness with the Moose lead- ing 9 to 8. How It Happened In the first frame Grummett fielded Livingston's hit to first satisfactorily, but no body was on first to throw the ball to. In the next play, Haines bunted down the first base line and it went for a hit, Livingston going to third. Big Mac was out at first after Haines had stolen second. Garn rolled one down to Jack Schmitz at short, and Jack, with all the time in the world to catch Liv- ingston at the plate, threw a mile high and two runs were scored as Garn went to second. Garn came home as Erskine made a clean dou- ble into left. The Moose tied it up In their half. Big Mac couldn't find the plate, and before very long was in 2 hole as he walked the Schmitz brothers, Bill and Fred. Grummett and Molly Mac' went out via the strikeout route, but Jack Schmitz brought home Bill with a single over third. Warter’s single brought ‘home Fred, and Jack came in on Jensen’s single over second, but Warter ended the inning when he was caught at second. The Moose forged into the lead in the second inning. After Hen- derson singled, Curley Fraser sent {2 beauty down the third base line which went for a triple, the first of the season. Bill Schmitz walk- ed for the second time. On Bill's steal to second, PErskine relayed the ball to the plate in an effort, to get Fraser coming in from third. The ball took a bad bounce and hit Kelly Blake in the face Kelly had to leave the game. Bill came in on Fred Schmitz’s fly to left. ‘The Bills collected a couple of scores in the third frame which they shouldn't have had, all be- cause Umpire Botelho forgot about the infield fly rule. With one away, Big Mac’ singled and both he and Garn were as safe as mice | in a church when Jack Schmitz muffed Abby’s hard-hit grounder. Erskine popped up right in front of the p*ite and Curley Frasier missed the ball ground about a foot lines. inside the field fly Botelho called ‘“foul.” Erskine smacked the next pitch for two bases, scoring Big Mac’ and sending Garn along to third from where he scored on Nello’s fly to deep left which was caught by Bill Schmitz. Had Erskine been called out on an infield fly, neither MacSpadden or Garn would have scored. Bills Take Lead The Elks forged into the lead in the fourth frame. J. Orme fan- ned to open it. Stedman was safe when Warter foozled his grounder. He went to third on Livingston's two-baser to right center and both runners scored on Haines' hard single to center. | The Moose, trailing six to seven,! sewed up the game in their half; of the fourth. Henderson singled' and stole second. Fraser poked a weak effort at Gam who batted it along. Big Mac threw wide to first and both runners advanced two bases, Henderson scoring’and Fra- ser going to third. ‘Bill Schmitz walked. That was the end of Big Mac's day in the box. He was re- lieved by Erskine, Bill stole sec- ond. He went to third and Fraser scored on Fred Schmitz's grounder to second, Fred being retired at first. Claud set Grummett down on strikes. With the count two and one on Little Mac' Bill Schmitz stole home with the winning run. Haines, Elks™ catcher, dropped the ball and the speedy Moose left fielder slid across the plate be-! fore he could pick it up and put it on him. Bills Score One The Elks railied to score once in the first of the fifth, but that SCARCES HIMSELF TO WIN 440-YARD EVENT LOS ANGELES, May 12.—Curious to know what kind of fight talk Coach Harry Trotter customarily delivered to his U.CL.A. 440 yard sprint star, Jimmy LuValle, in ad- vance of a crucial race, a sports writer trailed the flashy speedster.
