The fireworks began with the last of the first frame when Guy, who hit two for three during the night, singled to right field. Fritz | Schmitz bunted and Koski, field- ing the ball, threw it high and handsome over first base, Guy pulling up at third and Schmitz | at second. That's when husky Mr. Johnson | pitcher and swing man, lifted a ‘Konu drive over the centerfield bar- |rier for three tallies. Elks go, a run back in the next inning when Lewis, who had got- ten aboard on Guy's error, only Moose bauble of the night, scored {on Koski’s long fly to left with the | bases loaded and one out. | In the next inning, Elks got an- | other marker as the bases loaded again with a walk for Addleman, |singles for Havlic and MacSpadden and Lewis was hit by a pitched ball to force a run. | With beautlful scoring oppor- tunity still remaining, Paine hit |into the pitcher’s box for a home- plate-first base double killing. Wil- |ley then flied out, | Mocse took another run in their | half of the third, Johnson going |safe on MacSpadden’s fumble at lirst and scoring on Joe Snow's |single after stealing second. | Guy then went in to relieve Bob Kimball, whose pitching arm seems to have lost its old crack, and held |the Elks scoreless and hitless for |the rest of the game, while his teammates went ahead to collect two more runs in the fourth. Elks seemed to lack spark last night.
