mous crowds at all the games and with the exception of the Crown PointValparaiso game each was closely contested, two of them going the ten-in-nlng route. At Crown Point big preparations had been made for the raising of last year's pennant, but the flag failed to put In Its appearance. At East Chicago the new park was opened for the first time and although not completed now it -will be oti of the largest and finest parks In the league. Valpo, 9; Hammond, 5. Valparaiso turned the trick on Hammond yesterday, when in a loosely played game they won the second contest by a neat margin of 9 to 5. Hammond's 1 old-time form .was missing, as they made five errors and Tietz, doing the slab work, allowed twelve hits. . HAMMOND. ,

It took ten Innings of good, snappy baseball to decide the hard-fought battle yesterday which developed into a pitchers' battle between Evans of Indiana Harbor and Henning on the slab for Crown Point. Evans exhibited his. old-time jinx over Crown Point, allowing only three scattering hits during the game, while the Harborltes did little better with Henning, both twirlers having their opponents at their mercy.

Northern Indiana Baseball Association, gathered to do honor to the occasion. The day was all that could possibly be wished for in point of weather. No wind, clear as a bell and neither too warm nor to cool. In fact a perfect day. The game was as good as the day. although unfortunately East Chicago lost to Gary the score being 2 to 0. Had the home team not been so excited over their new ball park, It Is possible the victory might have been reversed, but no one Is kicking over the result. The parade left Chicago and Forsyth avenues about 1 o'clock. Mayor A. G. Schlleker at the head of the caravan followed by a brass band.

There were about thirty machines In line. East Chicago, Indiana Harbor

and Gary all contributing to the procession.

The parade after traversing most of the streets In East Chicago, took in

Indiana Harbor, and intended to go

to Whiting and Hammond, but owing to the late start and to the fact that the pace had to be slow in order to prevent the notes dropping out of the band wagon, they found It would be irnposible to take in these outsida towns and also give: the occupants of the autos a chance to witness the game. So Whiting and Hammond were cut out. While the grand stand was not en

tirely- completed, the roof not yet being In place, that did not In anyway diminish the Interest In the game-nor detract from the comfort of the fans, as the sun was not too warm. The park Is a model In every respect, 'the grand stand being, commodious, substantial and well planned. Notwithstanding the heavy rains of the two preceding days, the diamond was In good condition. By next Sunday they wll have ample room inside the grounds, for automobiles and vehicles, so that It will r.ot be necessary for anybody who goe to see the game in a machine or buggy, to leave t outside. The game Itself was a good one barring the first half of the first inning, when a couple of baubles gave the visitors an opportunity to make their two - runs, which proved sufficient o win the game. Thomas, the first man up led off with a corking two-bagger, to center field and Kinneally who followed, sacrificed him to third. Cullison, the next man up, was walked and Brading who played with East Chicago, last- year, struck out to the delight of the local fans and the disgust of the visiters. ' . Mollneaux then shot a liner to short stop who fumbled it long enough to allow Thomas to score and Mollneaux to be placed on first. , Grant was then walked which filled the bases and

Wright brought Cullison home with

a hit which Beech knocked down, but which ws too hot to recover In time to get his man at first. Adams then went out from short stop ,to first, ending

this inning and the scoring for the

afternoon. The rest ws nip and tuck

throughout the game, both sides making phenominal plays which prevented many a safe hit from being registered. Although O'Brien for Gary had a little edge on Ingles so far as hits were concerned, he permitting only four while Gary got seven off his op

ponent. Ingles struck out twelve to O'Brien's four, more than off-setting his generosity in hits. Incidentally he also got two good singles in three times at bat. Early in the game Grant stole second on Wagner who made an overthrow and from that on the visitor persisted in attempting to purloin that bag and were Just as persistently thown out, yards from the goal. They

finally began to take Mr. Wagner's throwing wing seriously and Quit attempting to steal. Kelly umpired a good game throughout which was satisfactory to both sides.

GARY STEEL WORKER KILLED Javel Spanislaw, twenty-three years old, is dead of injuries received while at work at the Gary bridge plant of the steel corporation. He was employed as a structural worker. The remains were taken . to Hoover's morgue, 683 Washington street. Interment will probably be In Cleveland.

Talking Through the Air. Hobart has a wireless telegraphy

association composed of several boys

and young men who are delighted to talk .through the air by the wireless system and who have been quite successfulThey have at present four aerial stations and we understand sound waves from Chicago have been caught on several occasions. The young men intend to equip a boat on Lake George and send messages of danger in eapslzing or striking an Ice berg (sand bar). The association has organised with Asa Bullock as president and Chas. Clifford as secretary. We hardly -think a 1 treasurer is needed at the present. "Oaks from little acorns grew." Hobart Gazette.
