Lemnion, nod the decisions were very good. In the toss-up the leaguers won the choice of positions and took the Couldn't Miss It field. The game opened with Hall at the bat, and the Midgets were re tired In one, two, three order. In the leaguers half of the first, excitement was started by Castner getting to first. The hopes of the Downtown boys ran high for a score, but Morse hit a pop fly that landed In Hart's mitt, and turning quickly he doubled Uradnpa at second, and there was gloom. Gessllng, the nest man, was put out at first. There was nothing doing In the second. In the third, after two men were down, Hart got to first and stole second, but Hall funned and It was all over. For the leaguers, Kent. Large and Lake struck out. The fourth raised Interest in the hearts of the Midgets when Carson Sliding to Second got a hit, reached first In safety and stole second. He was doomed to anchor there, however, for the next two men went to the tall timber un der the export paw of Lake. For the Veterans, Castner and Morse struck out, (lessllng got to first and Meyers ended the music on a long fly. The fifth saw no change In the score for the Heights. In the Ix-ngue boys' half, liaker got to first, Tate sacrificed and Baker got to third. Kent cracked a hot one and at tempted to get to second on the er ror, but lu the mlxup that followed, Baker was thrown out at the home plate and Kent died at second. In the sixth there was nothing Leaguer Celebrating After Ninth doing for either side, the silence te tng unillsturlH'd except by the thud of the ball In the catcher's mitt and the dismal voice of the umpire an nouncing "striker out." The same performance took plnee In the first half of the seventh for the Midgets. In the Ienguers' half, how ever, Chlrlstle's IVts met their Wat erloo. Morse hit safely, getting to first, (less then stepped to the plate and rapped out a two bagger, put ting Morse on third. Meyers hit a long foul fly to right garden, and on the throw-In, Morse, after touching the bag, scored the first run. Hart then got a little rattled, hitting Liaker with the ball. The latter went to first and (Jessllng got to third. Tate struck out, but liaker got to second. (Jessllng attempted to come home on a short scratch by Large and was put out at the home plate. liaker got to third suck and scored on a wild .pitch. Lake was then put out at first and the Inning was over and the game won. In the eighth and ninth Hart again settled down to business, the pitcher's battle was resumed and the game played out In a awlrl of dust and a patter of rain drops. The contest was a crackajack, and the Downtown bunch have the credit of having won It by superior play. The work of Lake and Large as a battery was faultless, the little Tort land man especially doing himself proud.
