The locals came from behind twice to tie the score with the grand climax coming in the sixth inning when four runs were chased across the plate in a stirring rally. “Lefty” Haber started on the mound for the Falcons and pitched a steady game until the seventh when he,retired in favor of a pinch Litter. A long double to center by Haber in the sixth scored two men to give the locals the lead for the first time during the game. Bergeron relieved Haber in the seventh and displayed a good assortment of curves. Westfleld filled the bases in the seventh with no outs but Bergeron tightened up and forced the next three batters to ground out on easy rollers, “Babe” Sheehan and “Chucky"” Wojack lead the locals' attack with two bingles aplece. “Chucky” took all the grounders that came his way without a bobble and two hard stops of hard hit balls featured his work. Kopec put up a strong game behind the bat. Two attempts to score by Westfield were spoiled on fine catches by Waddy. Westfield presented a well bal- anced team that could hit and field in fast style. Miller made great stops at short that were {labelled hits. He also led his team in hitting, crashing out three safe blows. Fitzgerald did good work in center fleld. A snappy double play in the second by the Ialcons with two on was the best fielding play of the game. The visitors took the lead in the third on four straight hits. Miller doubled, McGowan singled, Clark doubled and Fitzgerald singled to i push three runs across the pan. The locals pushed a tally across in their Ihalt of the inning when Shechan singled to score Haber who got on base through an error. They cut the lead down to one run in the jfourth on a walk to Klatka and a single by Kredar. Westfield came back to score a run in the sixth on three singles in a row by Sadowsky, Keefe and Clark. In the last half of the inning the runs )fo score four runs. 8i Budnick grounded out to short. Klatka took {first on an error. Kredar hit to scoring. Kopec dropped a Texas leaguer into center. Both men scored when Haber connected for a long double to center. “Chucky” Wo- jack ended the scoring for the day when he dropped a single into right fleld to score Haber.

The game was well played throughout with sparkling fielding plays furnished by both teams. Going to bat with three runs need- ed to tie the score in the final frame the winners suddenly got to Klopp who had held them safely up to this time and knocked the ball to all corners of the lot. Klopp started the trouble for himself after Grusia had flied out to start the last half of the ninth. With Walicki batting, Klopp lost control and issued a pass. He re- covered, however, and fanned Man- gan who had touched him for two hits previously, With two gone and one man on base the winners uncorked a hit- ting attack which won the game for them. Zisk doubled and Dalkowskl followed with a single and then stole second and third. He scored the tying run when Lipski tripled to deep right center. Kazokiewicz then ended the game by crashing a single to left, scoring Lipskl. While attempting to catch a fly ball in centerfleld in the third in- ning Henry Baldesari was struck by the ball on the little finger of lils right hand and suffered a com- pound fracture.

A pass, another error and a brace of hits in the eighth brought in three more runs for good meas- ure.

P. F. King and F. C. Platt were tied for first with a 26 while four were tied for second with a 27 and five for third with a 28. Those tied for second were Louie Jones, Keck Parker, Hi Humason and Bob Fris- |bie, while the deadlock for third contained the names of Ernie Humphrey, Dana Vibberts, C. W. |Upson, Earl Higbee and Bill Row- {1and. To settlc the winner, |the tie decided to have cold hand of poker dealt. Three tens, *“30 days” were laid down by Platt to a pair of Jacks and a pair of fives {for King and Platt won first priz King was declared second winne Bob Frishie took third prize with a pair of Kings. Keck Parker essayed to deal out the cards and when the third place was being settled, Keck tried ¢hts best to win. Those in the tie with him, however, especially Louie Jones, who knows him only too | well, watched him very closely and |made him deal from the top of the pack. The result was that Keck fished out a great “left foof” with |a two, three, five, seven and nine. One sensational occurrence took place when for the first time this vear, Louie Jones got a 79 for the course. He landed on the upper edge of the green on the 1S8th hole for a five for an 80 but he straight- |way sank his approach shot for a | 79. Most of us know our history and can recall the stories of the burst of cannon at Lexington, or was it Concord, that has been labelled, “The shot heard round the world,” but the sound of the opening bat- tle in the Revolution was nothing as compared to the yell of triumph which Jones let loose when he that approach. The roar reverber- ated through the canyons and over the hills and was heard clear down to the center. Sunday was a “bad weather” day but despite this and the allure- ments offered by nearby beaches, the course saw an |number of players out in the morn- ling. In the afternoon there were more women than ever playing and {no rain could daunt them. 'This was probably the reason why so imany men turned out so that the women couldn’t beat them. Every kind of a costume was in evidence yesterday. A well-known doctor in the city appeared out on the course with a gray flannel shirt of the heaviest design and a pair of white linen knickers. Th showed that the general trend was to wear something warm. Another well known member of the club whose business it is to supervise the manufacture of places to hang clothes and also articles for the distripution of hot air, broke all the rules and regulatior |for wet grounds when he blos- somed forth in white knickers and A beautiful, thin, white shirt. He looked like a million when he started but he was the picture of a bad penny when he ended. So far as is known, no one was seen on the course emulating Cal and his cowhoy suit.

Itose's perfect perform- ance was the feature of the after- noon and gave his team a 12-0 vic- tory over the Tabs, He had so much speed and s connected solidly only twice during the entire nine innings. It was Rose’s first start of the season. Al Havlick and Morse Richtmyer hooked up in a pitchers' duel, Hav- |lick allowing the Speedboys three |hits and Richtmyer holding the Pirates to two, but atrocious field- ing behind Richtmyer gave the game to the Pirates despite Havlick's con- stant tendency toward wildness, The final score was 6-4. This left the Burritts and Pirates still deadlocked for first place. The Rangers kicked over traces and finally uncovered a b ting attack, winning their first game by outplaying the strong West Ends taking a 9-8 decision. The game was slow but full of excite- ment. Burritts 12, Tabs 0 Johnny Rose -turned back the | Tabs without a hit or run and the Burritts won an easy 12-0 game from the lowly Tabs. Rose pitched as perfect a game as the hardest- boiled fan could wish, striking out 12 batters and retiring six more himself on pop flies and grounders. Kanc's fly with tivo down in the ninth was the only ball {Dit to the outfield off- his delivery. | This and a grounder by Gill which Luty booted were the only two hard hit balls with which the Burritts had to contend, for Rose played practi- lly the whole game himself and |gave his teammates an afternoon of |comparative rest. In addition to his wonderful work in the hox, the Bur- |ritt pitcher hit a long home run |which rolled across the other dia- |mona. | In the first inning Partyka fanned, hut Kane dropped the ball. Denton missed the throw to first and _then threw wildly when Partyka kept on to second. The runner tried for third and Herdlein dropped the {toss, but Massey grabbed the ball and got Partyka trying for home. | Massey kept the RBurritts at bay {until there were two out in the fourth.

Again in the ninth three Burritts hit safely with two out, but Herde lein threw out Dalkowski at first. The Tabs threatcned only twice, Denton walked in the seventh and stole second and third. Rose promptly fanned Herdlein and Kane and ran over behind the baseline to get Merline's foul fly. In the eighth Luty erred on Gill's smash and Daly walked. Both moved up as Rose threw out Mottola on a very close play. Reed popped to Rose and Luty, threw out Meehan. Rose received almost perfect sup~ port from the Burritts, but all their fielding chances were made ecasy by the pitcher's baffling of the Tabs, who could not connect solidly. Mas- sey struck out eight and pitched fine ball most of the way, but when the Burritts hit they hit consecutively, and the Tabs made errors at criti- cal moments. “Cornell” Kuklinski again starred at bat with three hits, one for two hases.

They | were exceedingly lucky to do so, for Richtmyer pitched wonderful inst them and would possibly e equalled Rose’'s no-hit per- formance had he received any kind of support at all. As it was, he al- lowed but two hits, both made in the fifth inning after two men had been retired and five errors had prevented the third out from being made. Al Havlick held the Speed- hoys to three singles, but he was wild and kept himselt constantly in hot water. Milewski walked in the first, was sacrificed to second by Erickson, and took third and scored on two suc- cossive balks by Havlick. These were called by Umpire Sautter for |failure to stand on the rubber when delivering the ball. This run looked big for some time, and the Pirate substitutes who started the game could not make it up. Richtmyer and Havlick were having a great pitchers' duel, nelther permitting a hit in the first half of the game. Finally, in the fifth, Coach Charley Miller hegan to send in some regu- lars and the Speedboy infleld promptly blew up. Begley took Cianci’s place and was safe on Erickson's error.
