Play Is Fast Everybody got his money's worth Established 1898 With close to a third of the National league schedule played, last night. Without a doubt it was the closest game of the season and the seven innings required but one hour and 20 minutes to play. Both Claude Erskine, Moose, and Ken Jungp, Legion, pitched good ball. Neititer harler was especially bril- liant, but neither allowed more than five hits. Two nifty double-play killings by the Legion combination of Roller, | Al Lowe and Joe Snow, choked off as many threatening Black Sox rallies. The Moose also staged a double play, Fred Schmitz to Walt Andrews. The summary: MOOSE F. Schmitz, 2b Grummett, cf Erskine, p . Haines, 1b, rf J. Schmitz, ss Manning, 3b P. Nello, ¢ W.
