BRINGING UP FATHER PAPS, DOUGLAS FIGHT TO TIE IN TITLE BATTLE Second Series Tilt Is 3 to 3 Stalemate When Halted, Darkness A ball game is never cver unt the last man is out; though th Moose don't quite think so. In thei opinion last night's ball game was wrapped up for them in the last of the seventh, when Hurler Kimbal came up with a clout that apparent 1y won his ball game for him; unti! Douglas gardeners persuaded Um- pire Nowell that the horsehide hac bounced over the left center field fence and that Kimball's timely blow was good for only two bases, ra‘her than the four he had taken Just because that homer was not a homer, last night's Chanhel Loop contest was not put away for eithe team, but is right back in the serier lineup. When, after ten minutes of hot and heavy debate, in which al the players of both teams as well as several hundred fans participat- ed, Bob Kimball was persuaded to go back to second, Joe Werne: Moose third-sacker, who had crosse: the plate with the seemingly win- ning run on the play, had to go bac! to third; leaving the score a threc to three standoff. And, a three to three standoff the score remained for all time, as Doug- 1 back the next fwo batters and Wer ner and Kimball perished at the! posts. Final Frame Squabble The scene for the final frame squabble was set by Werner’s erro in that first of the seventh, after Kimball, with twn down, had filled first and secona with free tickets. Werner let Manning's feeble drive go through his legs and Bonner scored from second with the run that broke a long-standing two tc two tie, to put the Islanders one up. Then it was up to the Moose to do something. Jack Schmitz did it by crashing out a three-bagger to rightfield. With one out, Werner came up and proceeded to single hmitz home for the second time evening. The score was again ed. Then Kimball sent the pel- let plummetting to the fence anc t knott ace flinger, Claude Erskine se’, WHATLL | Daily Spor of the Pap infield to put off ' the Islanders in the fifth and it was necessary for Kimball to pitch him- self out of a deep hole in the first of the sixth. But, he did it, aided by a beautiful throw from rightfield oy Tom Martin, which held a po- tential Douglas run on third. That srought up the darkening seventh, with all its drama and debate. Although he was chary with hits, Kimball accounted for much of the rouble in which he found himself hy his wildness, passing five men, some of them in ticklish spots.

C., was established | Detroit 61 44 ev ne but Douglas thought all was over, until the Umpire changed enough minds to get the ball back under way for the real fade-out. Last night’s fracas was a wooly. heart-in-mouth affair nearly all the way. Douglas was first to hang a mark on the scoreboard, when, after fancy fielding had held them down for the first couple of innings, the Islanders broke out with two tallies in the first of the third. The out- burst had its root in a stroll to first base given Niemi when Hawkins interfered with his bat. Bonner dropped a bunt to advance Niemi, but Werner scooped it up and fired to second too late to head Niemi off, Schmitz then made a heave to first to try to catch Bonner, but 8Snow lost the ball in the sun and beth runners advanced a notch when the sphere went by him. Bonner Scores Shortstop Schmitz cut Niemi off was at the bottom of the opening life-saver. Besides being Kimball’s rival for heavy clouting honors, Jack Schmitz ‘urned in another heart-warming performance at shortstop. Fielding Heips Fielding came to the aid of the Douglas hurlers also, Bonner com- ing up with a dual-murder that halted a Moose threat in the second ‘nning; while in the last of the first Andrews made an impossible stop to rob Martin of a two-base blow. Douglas was weakened for last night’s contest and for the rest of the season by the loss of infielder Al McCay, who sailed for the States Tuesday. With a draw resulting in last night'’s struggle, four games pos- sibly still remain to be played in the “Little World Series.” The Moose, besides having one already {tucked away, appear to be in a bit at the plate on the next play, but;better shape; having their top hur- Manning followed with a Chinese hit down the first base line that Snow couldn’t reach in time to do anything with it, Bonner scoring. Erskine hit a high fly to center, and after the catch Manning was trapped between second and third. Before the Moose could run him down, however, Roller crossed the plate. In the last of the third, the Paps, for the first time, showed signs of getting to Mark Jensen, who had started on the mound for the Is- landers. Werner led with a walk and | went to third on the first of Kim- ball's two doubles, from where he was put across by Fritz Schmitz’s single. Island Manager then immediately pulled Jensen. Er- skine replaced him and set back the next three men, without further damage. In the last of tHe fourth, the Moose came to the front again, to tie the score. With two away, Jack Schmitz doubled, and, after fouling off a goodly number of Erskine’s Andrews | ler Johnny Smith ready to go, while the Douglas’ big gun, Erskine, will be needing a day or so of rest. With the next game set for to- night, to be followed with more bat- tles each night weather is good, until -the title is decided, the Is- landers would seem to have their hands full. This evening’s clash is to be another seven inning affair at Firemen's Park, and is slated to start moving at 6 o'clock sharp. ) DOUGLAS MOOSE | coal | ©w e ~cooco~ocool 58 .
