There's no use of crying over spilled Wilk, they aay, but if Bill Cramer had «tarted yesterday's fracas the Highlanders would have won. But Bill didn't .and the olan lost its second straight game to the South Bend horde 4 to 1, *»Just a- word or two regarding said Gcamer. The former Ft. Wayne firelitier hurled a masterly game after relieving Qua Griesel in the second innlng and not a single Broncho could Usance around the ring while William bracked -the whir.

affair. inat Handled with dispatch, Of the five hits 6ft his slants,, two were doubles, which, «oupled -with three walks, a sacrifice V-ld a double steal, netted the enemy four runs. The blow that caused Griosel's departure was a two-bagger by Grimes, which drove in the fourth and final tally for the visitors.

McColl Too Touirh.

Some more facts that do not sit well. Fitted against the clan was a tall, lfean lanky guy who answers to the lta.tne of McColl. Now Mo didn't seem to have a lot in the curve line, but he had a hop on his fast one and the Highlanders were helpless before hi.-s delivery. The bean-pole allowed but Six hits, the first coming in the fifth i Stanza, but, at that, was'outhurled by

Cramer after the damage had been accomplished. The South Bend slabbist worked desperately hard for a" shut ouf triumph, but Wagner's double in the eighth paved the way f6r the clan's lone credit.

Manager 'Lofty" Gilbert inserted Kaylor into the lineup in place of ^jjulte, in an effort to strengthen the hitting department, but Kaylor went hifles3, while Schuite, acting' in tho of pinch hitter in the eighth, tore 6C a pretty single. Such is fate, but it'.is. certain that the fellows aVen't cracking the old apple as they should." and until they do it, will be up to the members *f the flinging staff.

Trouble started right off the. reel -Griesel worked, on Basbang, first up, i but Koehler and Grimes mauled the ball, and Fisher drew a pass, jamming the paths.' "Dolly" Gray, with no love in his heart for his former teammates, played out. his string with Gus and 'finally was awarded with a free ticket to first, forcing in Koehler. Tannehlll ..kindly obliged by .ratjping into a double play, but the following chapter put & blanket over the r.fTair.

LAFA YiOTTK. Ind., April 2?.—T'urdu«s defeated Indiana, 7 to 0, t'oclav in a ons-sided game. It was a great blowto Indiana's aspirations. Purdue hit Ridley, the Indiana universitv pitcher, hard, but Kaufman. Purdue's oitcher, was invincible. Indiana made" manv costly misplays at critical times.

If he warms up O. K., "Red" Ainsworth will pitch today's game for the clan.

The game today will be calied at 2:30.

Kaylor was sent out to right field, Cobb shifting to center and Schuite going to the bench.

With one gone in the first attack, Koehler and Grimes connected nnd Fisher walked, loading the bases. Gray also drew a free ticket, forcing Koehler home. Tannehlll, however, hit into a double play, lining out to Kvern, itho pegged Gray out at tint before "Dolly" could scramble back to the bag.

It was one, two, three for the Highlanders in their half of the first.

Withrow doubled to left in the second, with one out, and moved to third on McColl's infield out. Ba«hang walked. A double steal went through. Withrow scoring. Koehler then inserted n single past Isaacs, Bashang crossing. Grimes kept it going, exploding a double to left center on which Koehler rode home. That was enough for Griesel, who went to the bench In favor of Cramer, who promptly wild pitched Grimes to third. Flaher, however, ended i* by lifting out to Kaylor.

It was boys' day at the park and several- hundred kids were on deck to root for the clan.

Beall rdbbed Mitchell of a bingle in the clan's half of the second bv stabbing a vicious liner with his gloved mitt and tossing the pill to McColl who reached first ahead of the runner' The play prevented a Highlander tallv, as La Ross was rounding third when the Broncho infielder knocked down the drive.

Cobb opened the last half of the ninth with a blow, but nothing of consequence followed and the Highlanders suffered their second defeat ki three games.

South side athletes are beginning to wonder when the officials are going to start work on the Wiley tennis courts.

The Fineran-?arlin three-rail match for the city championship is not likely to be staged for some time. The titleholders declare Carlin can have a iling at the toga any time, but so far the tourney winner hasn't hurled any challenges. Why not take a shot at the title yourself, 'Rheddo" Martin?

The Elks "ragtime'' bowling tourney ought to be a whirlwind affair with such crack or cracked bowlers as Homer Williams, Henry Becker and Bill Cooper in the field. Watch Ed Sparks is the dope at the Elks. Eo, you know, will have charge of the scoring.

SETTO FOR TEACHERS

State Normal Southpaw Blanks Milli* kin University Nine, 2-6— Strikes Out Twelve.

Hy Edsmr I„ lUorphet.

In a game featured chiefly by the excellent twirling of Brown, the State Normal moundsman, the Teachers shut out the Millikin university nine, at Parsons field yesterday afternoon by. the scone of 2 to 0. The game was the first college tilt of the reason for the Teachers and considering their limit^d practice ir. comparison with the heralded strength of tlie visitors the showing is considered most promising.

Vice President Howard Sandison of the State Normal, who is an .ardent baseball fan, opened the season for the Teachers by pitching the first ball. A pretty throw it was, too, the sphere going squarely over the home plate and, although Johnson, first up for the visitors,^®wung vigorously and confidently, he missed the ball fairly and was awarded a strike for his pain's.

Brown had the Teaohers' slab ot the argument well in hands at all times Brown, besides holding the visitors hitless and scoreless, struck out twelve of the opposing batsmen.

On three different occasions. the Teachers filled the bases, but wore only able to score in the sixth ihning when a double by Lowe chased tw-o runs in.

At the start Johnson of the*visitors was awarded a walk, but viras left* stranded when the next three
