The | ; Red Sox are still eight and one half | games behind St. Lou but the | Browns are playing poor baseball. The Senators trimmed St. Louis in the first game, 5-1, Tom Zachary's steady pitching.

The St. Matts have a half-game lead at present, having one game more than their close rivals, while each has dropped a single encounter. The Swedes lost a 2-0 decision when the teams met in the first round, while the German team dropped a game to the South church. While tonight's game will not positively settle the championship, it will give the win- ner a decided edge, as both Luther- an teams have bheen cleaning up their opponents with regularity. The St. Matts, presen defending title-holde have the scrappiest and -working outfit in league, am which never lets down for a second and which forces breaks and then takes the utmost advantage of them. The Swedes, while not quite so colorful, are a steady and very strong team, with- out a weak point in the entire line- up. The struggle between the 1925 and the 1926 champions for the championship of 1927 is going to be a fierce one. The game will be played on Diamond No. 1. . Incidentally, the game will see the end of the winning streak of one of the league’s two best pitch- s. Bill Fresen, man has won 11 out of 12 the last seven in succession. Billy Preisser who pitches for the St Matts, has won seven games and has yet to be nicked for a loss. The Center Congregational church will meet the Stanley Memorial church on Diamond No. The Stammors have been dropping games, have regained their poise by now, while the Center hurch will be back somewhat near the top strength af- ter two weeks of struggling without regular line-up.

Crowd Attends. The Stanley Works baseball team went through one of the most bit- ter contested games played in the Industrinl Leageu this year before it scored a 3 to 2 victory over the Stanley Rule & Level team last night at Walnut Hill park. The game went irto the tenth fnning before it was decided and then the Stanley Works crew got its extra run that ultimately gave it the con. test and victory. The win puts the Stanley Works into a tie with the Corbin team for first place. Yor ths players, the contest was one of the most nerve wracking played this year. For the spectators, it was the greatest and most excit- 1ing battle of the season and the | largest crowd of the year, lining both left and right fleld foul lines and grouped in center field, was well repaid for its presence. Big Jim Scott, ace of the Stanley Works twirling staff and Billy Wolfe, premier twirler for the Rul- ers, became deadlocked in one of the tightest pitching duels seen this year and it was only through the excellent work of his mates with the stick that Scott came out on top of the twirling star of the Rule Shop. ‘Wolfe walked no batters and struck out six. Scott walked three and | struck out five men. Stanley Works, | howav got 10 hits to eight for the Rulers and these two bingles de- cided the game. The Stanley Works got away to a big start in the first inning by scoring two runs and the Stanley Rule had a hard uphill battle to win. Both pitchers extricated them- selves fr tight holes with men on third and second and the excite- ment at all times was most intense. Paul Snyder started the game by | slashing the third pitched ball straght onto the left field foul line for a home run| Gaida was out at first. Green then smashed a double into right center but Parsons poped out. Schroeder with two strikes on him, lined the hall between the left and center fielder for three bases scoring Green ahead of him. Th Stanley Rule got one run back in the second frame. Argosy, first man up, singled into right. Billy Schmidt followed him with a double along the right field line [and Argosy completed the trip. After this, the Rulers got the bases full bhut Jervis nslruck out to end | the inning. The game went along with neith- Jier team scoring until the cighth | when the Stanley Rule tied it up. rrozza fouled out to the catcher. haefer flied out to center. Argosy | slapped a hit between third and | short which Green knocked down but couldn’t field. Schmidt drove a | eingle into center and Gaida let the | ball roll through his legs and Argosy brought in the tieing run. Brilliant pitching by Wolfe and i excellent support behind him forced the game an extra inning in the last of the ninth. Dick Schroeder crash- ed a double inte right field. Bud- nick kot a Texas leaguer over third hase and Schtoeder stopped at th Budnick going to second. There was nobody out. Pelletier, who had been injured during the game, struck out. Grail landed on a tast one and drove a liner jinto cen- ter. Schasfer came in fast and | made a ebautiful shoe string eatch of it. Schroeder thinking it was a hit had started for home and was therefore unable to score on the sacrifice. Scott drove a mighty long fly into left for the third out. In the tenth, Paul Snyder burted and beat the throw to first. Wolfe got the ball and threw wildly to STANLEY WORKS WIN IN HARD 10-INNING BATTLE Stanley Rule Team Ties Score In Eighth Only to Lose Out In Extra Frame—Scott and Wolfe In Bitter Duel—Game Was Full of Thrills—Snyder’s Bunt In Final Session Proves to Be Winning Hit — Large catch Snyder. Jack Argosy, making a stab for the ball, knocked it down, but he almost made Snyder do a Jack Sharkey. Snyder passed by the bag but after receiving a right cross on the chin, he wobbled liks a drunk back to the bag. He was fanned for a time and then took second. Gaida fouled out:to’ Camp- bell. Green sent a high fly behind second base and Schaefer caught it, the runner holding the bag. Johnny Parsons then dumped a Texas leaguer into center field and Snyder easily scorcd. Parsons stole second and Schroeder walked but Budnick flied out to Schmidt: to end the in- ning. Jervis struck out in "the’ Rulers’ half of the tenth and made one «ut. Carrozza sent up a high fly to Grail at second. Schaefer hit a grounder to Green but Jimmy threw high to first. Schaefer stole second and with Argosy up, the Stanley Rule rooters were in a frenzy. Argosy made & good bid for a hit between first and second but Grail fielded the ball nicely and the game was over. Billy Schmidt's playing at short for the losers furnished a feature of the game. Jack Argosy fielded nice- ly at first base. Schaefer's two ‘shoc string catches in center were the fielding gems. Stanley Budnick for the winners pulled the hest play of the game wWhen he threw out Jervi at third on the hit and ryn pla) The throw was perfect and- Jack Pelletier, making sure to touch his man, was kicked in the stomach and was knocked cold. He held onto the ball, however and Jervis was out. This probaply saved the game for the Stanley Works. Jack Schroedes was the big and. timely hitter for Stanley \\'ork!
