Th Hammond nine defeated the Ham

Hammond's fast semi pro. nine ac
complished what was expected of them
in the first contest of a three game series with Crown Point, but it required some hard hitting and good base running to do It. Score, 5 to 3.
MeCay Wins Game. When McCay poled that much-needed
single in the eighth inning, it was a certain fact that Hammond were win
ners. The hit scored Rohde all the way from second and that run later resulted
in the winning tally. Although the
one run lead would have been sufficient Wagner wanted to be sure that the
game belonged to Hammond and
smashed out a double, McCay counting
on the hit. The Crown Point players were now well aware of the fact that
they were beaten and in spite of all
they could do iiV the last stanza in
which only three men faced Mitchell proved of no avail and they went to the club house in a silent manner.
A Banner Crowd. Fifteen hundred half crazed fans
representing both Hammond and Crown Point witnessed the game between the
two rivals. At 2:45 every seat in the grand stand and bleachers was occupied
by the fortunate ones who came early, but still they came. Unable to find a place to sit down those who came late contented themselves with a seat on
mother earth or stood up, the latter being used more extensively. Twelve autos filled with the wealthy class of
baseball enthusiasts were lined up
along the left field fence.
Mitchell la Mater. Percy Smith, once a player on the
Hammond team, opposed Mitchell in the
fray yesterday and although he pitched
a good game, Mitchell was master or
the occasion and he pitched his team to victory by using his head during the entire contes. Smith couldn't have received better support from any team.

The Crown Pointers netted eight safeties oft Mitchell, but he kept them well scattered, his excellent hurling in pinches saved the game. Tronble started In Second. Both nines tried to start something in the opener, but all in vain. In the second stanza Crown Point did start the ball rolling and two tallies resulted. Eder Svas given a walk, Glover picked out an open space between second and short and singled. Arter hit a hard one to Mitchell and the latter lost the ball but found it in time to keep Eder from scoring, the bases were soused, Harris fanned. Smith came to bat, picked out the first ball which was a straight one and smashed a liner be

game would result in an over-time af

Everything passed along smoothly, both nines retiring in fast order until the eighth stanza and when Hammond
finished that inning, both the Crown Point players and fans were aware ot

After two hours and a half of arguing as to which was the better baseball team, Umpire Earl Chetney, who acted as sptclal judge, ended the long struggle by giving Gary the verdict. Although Hammond was defeated in the fray, they are certain that a fast
nine can be picked from the local law- j yers. Twenty men were tried out on the Hammond nine, three of them being , hurlers. Poor support was the cause ', of the Hammond lawyers' defeat, while the young Gai-vtes showed fast work j in the field and were wallopers with the I wp.gcn tongue. I Attorney Sprout pitched six innings ' for Hammond and retired in favor of McAleer, who lasted two innings. Reinhart although net a lawyer, hurled the f
last inning. Attorney Russell pitched the entire game for Gary and held the Hammond men to a limited amount of hi'ts which were well scattered.

The Cubs wound up the month and their season's work in this town today by grabbing both ends of a double header from the Cardinals, thereby gaining full revenge for what Roger's men did to them in the opening game of the series. Chance's men without Chance's help (except from the bench) won the first game 9 to 3 and the second 4 to 0 in seven innings.
Brown, who was beaten so unexpectedly on Wednesday, was the hero of the first game, holding the enemy safe after a batting splurge which gave St. Louis three runs in the third round and helping to win his own game by two nicely timed three baggers. Kling and Hofman also starred with the stick Lush and Higgrins were pounded for sixteen hits. GIANTS DISAPPOINT WHITING GRAYS The Wnltins Grays were greatly dls-
