LISSEN----- YOU JESS NAME ANY RECORDED PIECE O' MUSIC THEY IS - WILD WIN FROM ELKS Score Eight Runs in One Inning-Purple Sox Lodge Protest One bad inning last night (very bad) spelled defeat for the Elks at the hands of the Moose, 10-1. | i The first two innings looked like a ball game ‘with the Elks getting tally number one when Peterson, stealing second, made home after second baseman Lawson lost the ball from catcher Blake on the pickoff throw. The Moose tied it up in their half of the second when Snow tripled off the right field fence and came in on a wild pitch. In the first of the third, a play came up on the basis of which the Elks announced the game was be- ing played thenceforth on protest. Ellensburg and Gray were on seccnd and third with one cut. Koashak struck at the third stri and missed. Catcher Blake drop- ped that third strike, but as Ko- shak started to run to first, Um- pire Nowell said “strike two.” Argument followed, in which Ko- shak suddenly bolted for first base. Blake threw to first, but threw high, and Gray and Ellensburg scqred while Koshakf went to second. " Then Umpire Iffert came in from the bases and said time was out = MISSED A MILE_well maybe Catcher Harry Danning of the N. Y. Giants didn't miss the ball by that big a margin, but there it is, dropping past Danning and Clyde Passeau (left), Cubs pitcher. Passeau hit a foul tip, trying to bunt, and the ball went by faster than a Joe Louis punch. This was in the seventh (lucky for Cubs) inning, The Cubs won, 7 to 1.
