GOPHERS BEAT HOMEWOODS, 14-8 The East Chicago Gophers opened the season In whirlwind fashion yesterday afternoon by defeating the fast Hammond Homewoods, . claiming the large end of a 14 to 8 score. Although : the field was in poor condition on account of recent showers, this proved no 'obstacle and both teams were eager to continue the one-sided contest. A large crowd of enthusiastic fans saw the game. The manner in which the Homewoods slaughtered the East Chicago twlrler during the early stages of the game made it appear that they would have easy sailing when they cored eight runs across the plate. Thomas, hurling for East Chicago, soon found his place and soon had the Hammondites eating out of his hand. Hudson, who did stellar work on the mound for Hammond during the first few innings, lost control or his excel lent form, the East Chicago sluggers finding him for 14 runs. The Homewoods will ,-be given a return game in the near future and expect to turn the tables. The Gophers ask for Saturday and Sunday games with any 14-15 years aggregation in this vicinity.
