A FINE THING, YUH DERN DOLT/ TH' HULL NEIGHBORHOOD'S (_TALKIN' ABOUT HOW. IVE GONE LAZY ON MYSELF / ELKS BLAST 10-RUN WIN LASTNIGHT ¥ | Purple Sox Assume First Spot in Second Half Banner Race A slugging Elks baseball squad whipped two Douglas pitchers last night in Firemen’s Park, 10 to 4 as the lodgemen dumped the Islanders from first place and assumed the‘ second half lead themselves with a | half-game edge. Douglas scored the first run of the | game with first chance at the plate, | but the Elks came back in their half of the first to tie the score when Koshak singled, went to second on Ellenburg’s sacrifice bunt, and came ! in from second on Waldron's single through the infield. Again in the next inning the Elks scored a run, and in the third and fourth innings, scored four runs in each, knocking Jensen from the box and playing havoe with Dave Turn- er's curve ball when Turner re-| lieved Jensen. In the first of the fifth, with Turner aboard, Erskine pasted | four-base ball over the centerfield fence for the only home run of the game. Koski pitched the first six innings and turned the last inning over to Grassy Lowe when his arm tired. Lowe walked the first man, but struck out two and caught a bound- er to the pitcher’s box to throw the last man out at first. Errors were costly during the game, with Jensen taking a bunt at | one time and trying to make a double play needlessly, with both runners pulling up safely, and then | again throwing to second later and throwing low. The runners scored. Late in the game, on double play setups, Ellenburg made two errors in a row at second to permit a score. Ellenberg was playing second last night with Havlic id his place in centerfield, Koshak playing right and Waldon covering left. | Sunday, Elks play the Moose in a scheduled contest. | Box score and summary for last night's game is as follows: ELKS AB R Koshak, 1f.
