After one of the prettiest pitch ing duels staged on local pasture this season "Herb" Byram bested "Toots" Agnew in a ten inning argument by a score of 1 to 0 today. The score Just about indicated the play, too, for both heavers were masters of the situation up to the call of time. Nine hits were secured by the batsmen during the extra session, which alone speaKs hia-hlv of the brand of hurling. Of these the Champions secured but four while the accurate pegging of Sepul veda to second no doubt lessened the value of the aulntet gathered by the visitors. The game was won in the tenth in nlng when "Nick" Williams booted two ground balls and Harris also broke into the error column, ivippert arew a pass and when Brlnker attempted a sacrifice. Williams fumbled the ball and both runners were safe. Scharney hit a fast one to Coltrln, who threw Klppert out at third. Sepulveda sacri ficed. Byram hit a grounder to Will ams, who had a made-to-order double Dlay handy but his throw to the plate o head off Brlnker drew Karris ore tne bag, and the winning run was over.
