IG6ITY HAIDA MAN | HOLDS ELKS' Moose Win 9-2 in Sunday Game-Sogaard Whiffs Fourteen Batters Sogaard, Haida pitcher, who re-| cently donned a Moose uniform,| gave the Elks but five scattered blows yesterday evening by Fire-!| men’s Park while the Paps snowed the purple sox in, 9 to 2. Incidentally, Sogaard broke the | season’s strikeout record tossing 14 series of whiffers, beating Douglas | chucker Erskine's mark by one! strikeout. Elks took the lead in the secund: inning when they garnered two runs on a walk and a pair of singles, but in the last of the third, the Moose got a run with Bell walking two men, dropping a single, and then walking a run home. With Koski going in to relieve Bell at that stage, he too walked a run in before the inning was over. In the next frame, Snow homered for the sixth time this year over the right center field fence with | Marquardt aboard for two more runs. While the Elks were held score- less, the Moose garnered another run off Koski who retired in favor of Henning in the seventh. The Paps had one scoreless inning, then came back in the ninth and after an error and a walk, Snow doubled to bring in two runs and Kimball homered | to score Snow ahead of him. That's the way it ended, 9-2, with | the Elks finding difficulty all| through the game in getting ihe wood on Sogaard’s dipsey-doo while | the Elks’ pitchers failed to stem the | tide and four errors were made in the field in the bargain.
