nessgot him into a hole.
Barnes, first up, singled thru
the pitcher’s box and Adcock

side.—The Tonight and Tuesday partly
received a big ovation and a balf-a-
hatful of silver collectefi by Secre-
tary Bill Drawe from the happy fans.
Walter Show His Stuff
Newman had his chance fo sjiow
his stuff from the^ mound the very
next frame. The pitched ball by
Blrron soaked Muecke squarely on
his salary wing and he retired in fa
vor of Newman .at the s*art of the
sixth. Up to that time the N'j-dlieim
crew Had gathered one hit. That was
all the box score showed them to
have at the end of the ninth. Walter
had the visitors at his mercy thru-
out and he exhibited the widest var-
iety df bonders and fast ones it has
been thq. pleasureof local fans to wit-
ness sinco Chester Falk hurled for
the University of Texas Longhori>s in
the summer of 19g4.
Ncrdhean made only two serious
threats to score, in the first and ninth
frames, ^fter Stoever had ground-
ed out to start the affray, Carl Wag-
ner muffed J. Rios’ grounder and S.
Rios followed With a hit. Barron
was then hit by a pitched ball filling
the bases. But Woods hoisted a
short fly to Walter Newman in center
and his perfect throw to the plate
held J.-Rios at third. Osterloh tap-
ped a weak one in front of the plate
and Barnes tagged Rios for the final
out.
Errors Cause Late Threat
The niath inning again saw’three
visiting runners on the bags and no
score. Rusche started the Nord-
grounder to pas3 through his legs.
Carl Wagner extended the Eamq fa-
vor to Oeterloh, giving both runners
life. Newman then fanned Jochen
and Barnes’ throw had Woods off the
bag but Rusche dropped the throw
and the runner obk thir^. Wolpman
worked Newman for a pass, filling
the bagds,' but the latter struck out
Kendricks for the second out and
forced Stoever to ground out second
to first td end the game.
Three Cuero safeties failed to pr>
duce a run in the eighth. Walter
Newman dropped a high *om?- into
right that fell safe between S. Rios
and Kendricks but was out trying to
stretch it for two bases, Rusche
followed with a single into right and
Kennedy hit safely over second. C.
Mauer went out pitcher to Jlrst and
Barnes walked filling the bases but
the best Adcock could do was to tap
lightly to Barron, who forced
Rusche at the p]ate.;
