DeLong got a bad start when he stepped up on the mound, his time this year walking Lefty awson, allowing Fritz Schmitz to connect with a grounder that he self caught and threw to first, 1d giving hits to Johnson, Snow and Kimball. His big mistake was giving Kimball the chance to smash a terrific homer over the fence, and the ball game was lost for the Elks from then on. But the Elks had come up to bat first and taken one hit and one run from Kimball, so things didn't look so tough for the con- sistent losers.
