The last two Moose markers were really super- fluous, as McNamee's fence ball in the fourth was enough in -itself, backed as it was by an almost flaw- less hurling performance Jensen in Form As if walloping the winning run were not enough, McNamee collect- cd a pair of doubles, additional, in his three other trips to the plate Jensen, who did the heaving for the five Douglas Islanders and four Elks who made up Manager William A. Hodzheimer’s All Star aggregation,) was, however, in rather rare pitch- { ing fettle himself. Jensen had his curve nipping the corners and al lowed only four safe blows besides the damaging clouts collected by I1cNamee and. Converse Four full innings went by with- cut an All Star reaching base be- fore Erskine led coff the last of the fifth by rapping out the single that ruined McNamee's shot at glory After working around to third, Er- skine was stranded there, and il was not again till McNamee re- Jaxed again. Then, once more it was Frskine who landed aboard the ini- tial bag, on a walk, But, with two already away, Er- skine got no further, and it was Lonny Grant who made the next try to land a run for the Stars Leading off, Grant drew a stroll, was advanced to second by Turner’s bunt and went on to third on a passed ball, but a whiff and plus an infield out left him high and dry at that station. Stars Make Last Try The last of the ninth saw the final drive at a score by the All Stars. Ellensberg was first up and reached first when one of McNa- mee’s heaves collided with his knee. A fielder’s choice, however, then did away with Ellensberg and left Fos- ter first as the final Stellarite man to man the bags. A pop foul and a long fly then followed and the game was done. McNamee's double in the firsi and Haglund'« single in the third and Ha id’s single in the Athird amounteu to nothing for the Moose until McNamee again went to the fore and led off the fourth with his four-baser. Following that the Paps again eased off, the next three men fanning and nobody reaching base in the fifth. The sixth, though threatened a second Moose score when, with one away, Fritz Schmitz scratched a single and M¢Namee doubled him to third. Both runners, however, died off when two outs quickly followed. Only three Moose faced Jensen in the seyenth, but, with one gone in the first of the eighth, Star right fielder Bill Robertson lost his bal- ance and dropped a fly to let Hag- Jund through ‘to second and forced Jensen to fan Fritz Schmitz and McNamee in order to ease out of trouble. Werner Opens Firing Joe Werner lit the fuse that again touched off the Moose dyna- mite in the final frame. Following Snow's fly, he doubled and waited around on second until Converse poked him home with a lofty smash that bounced on the grandstand roof. Blake followed up with a sin- gle, but stayed on first as Jack Schmitz flied for the third out. Manager Holzheimer backed up his declarations about bagging a store of Moose-meat by picking himself a ten-strikeout pitcher Jensen and a gang of fielders that made but one chance error; but he is now convinced that the Paps can take good care of the best that Al- he does any more challenging. | Suit Not Enough | Not even the appearance of All Stars’ pilot in ball suit borrowed from a brawny EIk was enough to | strike awe into the hearts of the Moose to the extent of a single bob- ble; and almost certainly had no | effect toward sapping the in the Black Sox’ bats. A nice pot now goes to build up |a hospital fund for ball plagers | while the couple hundred fans or hand got value received in a major- {league calibre diamond joust—'twas a perfect windup to the season.
