AN INNING WITH THE AMATEURS

Premiers again BEAT MARMONS The Marmon 34s suffered their usual attack of stage fright yesterday afternoon, when they stacked up with the Premiers for the Motor league championship and Pitcher Elmer Brown, former big leaguer, fooled them out of a win, the count being 4 to 2. The game was staged on the Premier diamond. Brown was not the only one that beat the Marmons, however: theX helped swing the ax that cut their own necks when they booted the ball when boots meant runs for the Premiers. Sam Wernke, a promising young hurler, was on the mound for the Marmons, and he threw the sort of ball that deserves s win. The heavv hitting Premiers could touch him for only a few scattered Mows, but Premier hits were generally followed by Marmon errors. The Marmons also fell down In the stick, department at the critical moments, leaving numerous men stranded on the sacks. Yesterday’s game offered the Marmons their third' shot at the Premiers and the Motor clrcnit lead, the hand of fate giving them this chance. In two previous games with the Gaalema crew the west slders lost, so yesterday the Premiers were out to thump them again and have it over with. Brown pitched a clever game for the Premiers and his team mates showed their appreciation by making the best of every chance in the field and using their war clubs when the time was ripe. Dolly Gray of the Premiers and ‘'Red” Hirsch of the Marmons were the feature clubbers. Dolly got two timely blows and Hirsch was there with a single and a double. Gray walked once and was hit once, while Hirsch walked once and got on the fourth time up on an error. President Gaeth of the Motor league engaged two efficient umpires for the big game, Mike Qualters working behind the bat and Paul Hubn on the bases. The officials kept the game moving fast and there were no long disputes over decisions. A large crowd witnessed the game, employes .of the Premier plant being given time off to enjoy the pastime. Yesterday's game wiped away nil doubt as to the standing of the two clubs. The Premiers simply have It on the Marmons, and It's time for the Marmons to start preparing for next year. The score: Mar.
