The women play ers crtdited with 20 times at bat struck Just 14 times, for the most part they just stood up there and watched the ball go by. The Senators got to Brady, the man pitcher for the visitors, often during the first few innings, rap ping out nine hits, one of them a home run by Walt Erlckson during the first five frames. After that al though the locais hit In each Inn ing, they did not score with the ex ception of the seventh when two runs came home.

Wood walked four straight In the third inning. His temporary spell of wlldness, together with a passed ball enabled the visitors to score twice while m the fifth they dented the plate twice on three hits, one of them a double by Cody.
