They landed on Harry Stromquist for seven hits in the first three inniugs while Wilton Morey shut out the Bible claas with little trouble, The winners moved from sixth place to a sure grip on third. Morey opened the game with a double to left, going to third on a poor return and scoring when Parker placed a single inte right. The Bible class threatened when D. Hattings made a two-base error on brought another in ‘*he gecond. In the third thte Bethany took a lead on Lagerlof's triple, Arnold Wester- gren’s double and singles by Ken Westergren and Olson. The Bap- tists see-sawed ahead again in the fourth on hits by C. Pinkerton, Steege and Lindgren. Two more were scored in the fifth, but the Swedes came back with .our when Lagerlof and Hoy hit, an error fol- lowed and Dave Johnson deubled. The sixth opened with a doubly by Pinkerton, Steege followed with a home run which put the Baptists ahead and the umpire called the game because of darkness. The teams left the field believing the Baptists had won, but President K. E. Parker ruled afterwards that the Bethany team was the victor. Lagerlof and Steege featured with three hits apiece. The lineups and ing for a purse has long been frowned upon as both barbarous and iNegal.

The Stanmors were in the running up to last night, but now they are hopelessly behind. ‘The losers blew up {n the first inning. Jack Thorstenson dropped the first two throws sent at him and “Hawk” Rittner lost the ball when the play went to the plate on the next grounder. The Swedes then piled into Dave Stohl for four runs before the inning was over. A pass to Hamlin, W, Stohl's neat bunt, and two infield cuts gave the losers a run in their half, “Red” Nelson opened the second frame with his fifth home run of the vear, a terrific wallop over the center fielder's head.
