LASSEN doing his dirty work with the Indians’ bat- ting averages. Altho Bill James was wilder than the wife when Friend Husband holds out five bucks from the Saturday insult, the tribe lacked the punch in the pinches and lost to Vernon yesterday, 4 to 3. A team has to make more than five hits a game to win ball consistently. The boys made five bingles off of Jake May Wednesday and the same number off of ~ games’ i tbdoane brought General William Essick a few wrinkles in the ninth and had the stands rocking with for runs. James walked both Ernie Schorr and Ed scoring Schorr, but Carl Sawyer knocked the ball and heaved the onion over to third and nailed Barney, who had over-run the bag. The war was over. _ Outside of his lack of control the big Tiger mound man had a lot of stuff on the apple, as a glance at the total hite will show, Jacobe pitched a good game, burt ing well enough to win a lot of games if his teammates had sparked lead with two in scoring in their half of the same tnn- ing. Frank Tobin took two terrific swings and then connected for a long double to right center.
