Eddie Rol- ler, leading off for the Islanders, reached first on a muff but got no further when Ken Junge worked the ancient “hidden-ball” gag on him. Douglas counted its first run on a passed-ball in the opening frame and collected another in the second on a wild pitch. In the fifth, they got three more, on bob- bles, a passed ball in the sixth brought home another, errors and| two singles let in three more in the| seventh, and a triple and a passed- | ball in the eight counted Douglas’ eleventh marker.

Snow, new to the mound, was even wilder than two south- paws have any right to be, and the rest of the Legionnaires caught the P Vg eleven errors (Wishard high man with four), nine passed .balls, three wild pitches and two beaned bat- ters. Two men off the Tallapoosa, Jim Paine, second baseman ,and Red Frodel, catcher, played their first game with the Douglas squad, turn- ing in nice performances.
