CINCY TEAM

Locals Find Elmwoods Not in Their Class, Defeating Them 7 to 1-Kenney's Infield Works Well. "Too much Richmond," is again the tory of the defeat of the Elmwoods t Athletic park Sunday afternoon. The Quakers had little trouble in piling up a score of 7 to 1 against the Visitors, who have now definitely concluded that Richmond has the faster team although it required several similar ordeals to convince them or -he fact. The game was witnessed by one or the smallest crowds of the season. It was due to a large extent to the other ittractions in the city yesterday. Vordenburg again played an excellent game against the visitors, allowing but five hits. At times, however, both Vordenburg and Betzlng became wild and an extra amount of free passes was issued. , Betzing passed 'ive men and Vordenburg passed four. The Elmwood's lone score was made possible by Vordenbug passing two men in the same inning. Start With Five. Kenney's team started out in the rirst inning and piled up five runs. By this time, it began to look as if the tame was going to be all Richmond.

Netter, who was the first man at bat

for Richmond, was given a wain, Merkle singled and Novack was given

first on balls. Popkins fanned but Dahl came to the rescue and singled

through short, scoring Netter ana

Merkle. Lenninger singled and on two wild throws. Novack and Dahl

scored: Lenninger going to third

Schlemker then smashed out a liner

nutting Lenninger across the pan

Schlemker was caught while trying to

steal third and Cushing fanned.

Elmwoods made their lone score in the sevehth when Vordenburg issued

two free passes in succession to Busam and Beebe. Turner singled Bcoring Busam but he tried to make a two base hit out of it but was caught by Cushing. Williamson fanned and

Helwig grounded out. Lenninger to

Popkins. Count Two More.

The locals scored two more in the

eight, after two men were down. Netter singled; Merkle reached first on an error by Turner; Novack hit one

Tor two bases scoring Netter ana Mjrkle; Popkins out, Betzing to Busam. The playing of Schlemker at second, Lenninger at third and Cushing at short, was perfect. Cushing accepted eight chances easily and Lenninger handled five just as well while Schlemker at bat got three hits out of four times at bat. Box score: ELM WOOD.

FEDS WILL CLAIM BIG WORLD HONORS

Answering the insinuations mat he hadn't played the best base ball of which he is capable because of ill feeling between himself and Joe Birmingham, the manager, Lajoie says, "I have always played the game the best I knew how. I have always given the best that is in me. I have never laid down in a base ball game and never intend to. If I am traded to another club, and it suits me to go, I will play to win for the team I paly with."

With a Natco victory over Easthaven, and the A. S. M.'s winning from Robinsons, the S. A. L. league standing is tied up tighter than it has been for several weeks. It now appears to be a close race between Easthaven and the Seeders, with the AdHills and McGuires close on their heels. The biggest surprise of the program Saturday afternoon was the game between Easthaven and Natco. The hospital team went down to defeat by the score of 3 to 2, the winning run being made in the last inning. The game was one of the most interesting played so far in the series. The Wayne Works and the Panhandle game aws also close, the former winning by a 7 to 6 score. The Seeders had an easy time with Robinsons, defeating them by the largest score of the season, 36 to 5. Ad-

Hills also played with McGuires to the tune of a 11 to 2 victory.
