Ready for a brisk warm-up were the Firemen, but a difficulty arose.| Where's the balls? Where's balls? Sounded from a chorus of booted helmeted, rubber-coated ad- dicts of the National Whereupon, Kelly Blake and Big Mac MacSpadden arrived on the scene with balls. and bats. Just how many balls Catcher Blake brought with him was to develop later. Some Line-Ups First to take the field was Com- | pany Two, boasting a line-up that Id awe the New York Yankees: Toeing the rubber was Frank Hein- ke, the renowned fast-ball artist; at first, towering and spreading Ken Junge; at second, dynamic, flashing, Rabbitt Metcalf; plugging both third and short, that rock of ages, Big Mac. Covering the out- field like a moth-eaten blanket were Roy Nolan, the Babe Ruth of the Far North; Frenchy Gaudet, the Phantom of the Pastures, and Lynn Tucker, the Greased Ghost. Behind the plate for Company, Two crouched Houdini’s Rival, Kelly‘ Blake. Waiting to step into the hitters’| lox was Company “Mass-Murders'” row: Short- patcher Porter; Red Shaw, “The Man Who Knows,” drafted as back- stop for the epic clash; Dapper Roy One’s famous Hoffman; Jim Orme, Titan of Swat; tice Which brought considerable’ epper Pegues; Doc Hollmann, “The Man With the Dog”; Howard But- ton, “The ,Man From Nowhere"; and Martin Lavenik, dug from dark alleys to hold down the outfield.

Then, too many balls to keep track of found their way into the ball game, and Com- pany One, using two bats each at the plate, pounded several of thc balls to far places, breaking up tied score with a galaxy of talheb More Mysterious Balls Company Two finally got Com- \pany One out by the devious means of supplying each fielder with an assortment of balls, resulting in each runner’s being tagged considerable times on his way around the paths. Four times tagged and Umpire Mul- vihill called a runner out, a prac- caustic comment from the packed galleries, Cuming to bat in the last of the! |last, Company Two had its jaws |pointed for a rally.

Attempting to beat out a bunt, Blake crashed Hoffman. Blake came up a bit the groggier, and out. Heinke lined out a four-base crack, but was held at third by Doc Hollman and his dog. Junge singled and three runs came in from somewhere. Then Mac- Spadden dropped a bunt into right- field for three bases, but died there when a snappy double-slaying re- tired the side. Hollman doubled and stole for Company One. Pegues singled and stole second, then went to third on Metcalf’s error. He died there, how- ever, and Company Two came back to bat, leading 3 to 1. Heinke sin- gled but was called out going to second. After a dispute over the decision, he was carried out. "Met- calf flied, then Hurler Orme dis- played his true might as a pitcher, fanning both Blake and MacSpad- den, who faced him from oppo- site sides of the plane, on three pitches, making a total of four outs. Mysterious Ball Hoffman singled for Company One, and reached third when a throw to nobody in particular boun- ded well into the outfield. Coming in from third, Junge was tagged out by Blake, though it later ap- peared that the ball in play did not get back in from the outfield until ten minutes later.
