Al. Weincl, third baseman for the
Legionnaires, starred with the stick,
getting four hits in four trips to the
plate, a home run with two men on,
two two bag hits, and a single.
In the second game, with the Bal-
lin F’inanee company o f Portland,

allowed only five hits, and this game
was won by a score o f 10 to 3. The
runs were due to walks and two hit
batters, Scales being wild in the first
