DOUGLAS GAME 0 0—6 96 0 1—1 10 2 Due to downpour in which the game got under way, the clash' at Douglas which opened the Fourth money series, was limited to seven innings, which was six more than the Elks needed to win. The Pur- ples made: all their markers in the fourth frame, when they combined singles by Blake, Orme and Good, with Moreau’s walk, Hagerup’s dou- ble and errors by Manning and McCay to push across 5 runs. The Elks threatened to add more counters in the fifth, when Fos- ter’s double was followed by Orme’s| single, but fast fielding held Foster at third, where Claude Erskine, with half his face well battered from his collision with a pole in Sunday’s game, relieved Mark Jen- sen for the final putout of the contest. Despite protracted stretches of wildness that opened the way for most of the Douglas scoring, Bud Foster, Purple twirler, had a fairly easy time of it with the Islanders, when he allowed only five hits, while chalking up ten whiffs. | Mark Jensen paced the Douglas, batters, with two singles in four| tries, while Jim Orme, with three out of four, and Kelly Blake, who, drove out singles on half of his four trips, were tops for the Elks.
