That was all and from then on Stltes ltad them at his niercy, the fielders helpng him out In pinches only. ....... .' . ' i The car whackers put .three over 1n initial Inning that was all they dM. Oelslarger, a new pitcner ror the Bankers, hit Garrlty the first time up. and Ralston scored him after gtange let a poor peg from Wenzel go by him on an attempted steal. Rah'tun came borne on .Squires' boot ami Irwin tied at the plate on a clean play from pitcher to catcher. But Piihoik came rambling home on a thievery method after he jhad . been lilt and when he took advantage of a Molted play. Oelslarger sbowed con siderate class as a twlrler and has uo doubt won a permanent home with the Cankers. He is a college twlrler from the eact and lacked support or would have won.
