CECIL WHIFFS 13 First Partners, Then Foes
TO STOP CRATERS
IN 3-1 EXHIBIT
Mt. Shasta City, the Northern
California league leaden and
one of ths classiest clubs to show
here this season, toppled the
Craters in a sparkling 3 to 1
contest at the fairgrounds park
last niht as the Brothers Cecil,
Rex and till, celebrated some
thing; or other, by accounting
for. the victory almost double-
handed.
Rex, a long, lanky fireballcr
who threw aspirin tablets In the
clutch, struck out 13 Craters
and allowed but six scattered
blows. In addition, he collected
three of the five hits his team
mates rapped off Sieve Crippen,
" and batted in one run.
Bill, ust as elongated, pound
ed in the two other Mt. Shasta
tallies. So, the score might
read: Cecil brother 3, Mcdford
1.
It was a spectacular flinging
duel between Cecil, who show
ed the locals the quickest hard
one they have seen all season,
and Crippen, whose jug-handle
was effective as always. In
fact, Crippen allowed one le&s
safety than did Cecil, and fan
ned nine to boot. However,
Crip's wiklness in the first three
innings and a couple of costly
errors by Bill Lannlng, playing
first base, decided the issue ir
favor of the visitors and gave
the local hurlcr his first setback
of the year.
All the scoring was done in
the first three frames, wiln Mt
Shasta tallying once in each of
those innings. In the first Crpl
led off with a walk and went to
third on Bennett's double to
left, from where 'he scored as
Bill Cecil grounded out.
In tlia second Barney singled
to left, stole second, went to
third as Lannlng threw wild to
second bare jn the steal, and
scored on Rex Cecil's triple to
right. The visitors got their
final tally In the third when
Griffith and Bennett walked,
and the former scored on Bill
Cecil s flyout to left. Griffith had
reached third on a passed bail.
The Craters, handcuffed In
eight of the nine innings by
Cecil's blazing fast hall and a
curve that exploded like a nazi
bomb, bunched two blows in
the third for tBcir lone run.
With two gone, Calvert singled
into right and AI Wray blasted
. a triple down the right field line,
driving Calvert across.
From the fourth inning on
neither club could manufacture
enough punch to score again.
Crippen, in the last six frames,
gave up only two hits, while
Cecil over the same distance
was touched for three.
The Craters simply couldn't
touch the big boy when he rear
ed back and pulled the pin. A
sample of Cecil's pinch-pitching
was in the seventh, when Pach
eco led eff with a single, stole
second and reached third on an
error. W ith nobody out, Cecil
cut loose and fanned Hawkins
Crippen and Cook In succession
The fielding gem of the clash
was a running, one-handed catch
by Mettford'i Tomniv Hawkins
of a foul fly near the grand
stand. It was no less than sen
sational. Umpire-in-Chief Fred Lennard

did considerable beefing ail
