POLLY AND HER PALS WELL, SUSIE THE POSTMAN JUST BROUGHT ME A CHECK FOR FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR MY NOVEL! ELKS COP THIRD STRAIGHT SCALP IN BUNGLE FEST Bevy of Boots Accounts for Purples’ Winning Mar- gin Over Islanders Nine errors did most of the work in last evening's ball battle between the Elks and the Douglas Islanders. A brace of bobbles first tilted the game toward the Islanders when they put across their tally in the second inning; but then more boots followed to swing the victory back to the Elks in the next frame. Then, along in the fifth chukker the Is- landers contributed a couple more misplays to cinch the Elks in their third straight win, 3 to 1. First at bat, the Elks lasted only while three batters faced Douglas hurler Erskine. One of the three hitters, did however, get a good hold on the ball and pounded it over the left-field fence for what should by all means have been two- bases.

Safe at first on the muff, Andrews was worked to third on two infield outs, then crossed the platter when EIlk third-sacker Bradley let a simple little grounder trickle by him b Coming into the third, the Elks really went out and earned a run to tie the count, but were nicely help- ed along by Douglas errors toward a second tally that put them out in front. Foster's single opened the firing and was follewed by Bradley's neat sacrifice. Roller then missed Law- son’s grounder and Addleman walked to crowd all the cushions. Forsythe thercupon got a firm hold on the |ball and scored Foster with a drive across second. Then on a relay which should have cut Lawson at the plate, Bonner heaved the horsehide high against the fence and the purples led.

After listening a while to the course of the nearby argument, Pinkley decided to get rid the ball; which he did in no hali- hearted manner. He heaved it some ten feet over Andrews at first and into the bleachers. Seeing the ball 2o boundiuvg off the field, Addleman cut short his battle with the arbiter and scampered to first, from where he was waved on to second according to the rules governing overthrows. Erskine, being irked by the situz- tion, grooved one for Forsythe, the next hitter, who drove it into lefi field, where Jensen first misjudged the hit, then did not quite gather it in with a last-minute dive. That er- ror was enough to put Lawson in with the final run, Erskine was about the only Doug- las player who seemed to take last evening’s game seriously. Besides holding the Elks to one earned run and four hits, he took a hand in nost of the plays on batted balls and accounted for nine strikeouts. Foster, on the other hand, had generally good support as he set the Islanders back with a single safe | blow.

Bud Foster having won for them last evening against Douglas it would | appear that the Elks pitching choice |is narrowed down to Ward McAlist- er; while against McAlister the Moose are likely to fling any one of their three chuckers, Bob Kimbauil, Lefty Smith or Clancy Converse.
