SOUTH BEND, May 11 -Weak bit, ting on the part of Myers' Quakers lost for them another splendidly pitched game, yesterday. "Red" Ainswortb, on the mound for Richmond, was In great form and in nine innings only one run was made off bis delivery. In the tenth an error by Jim Kelly, Quaker shortstop, made a wild heave of an easy chance, paving the way for the Benders second run and robbing . Alnsworth of a victory. Willis, pitching for the Benders, had the Quakers completely baffled and would have hut them out except for a couple of mlscues behind him in the seventh, permitting Richmond's lone tally. Yesterday's score, 2 to 1, was a duplicate of the score of Wednesday's game, both requiring ten innings of play. Holds Attack at Bay. , Willis was the headllner In South Bend's victory. Holding the Quaker attack at bay from start to close Willis won his own game In the tenth by a clout, his second one of the game, pfter Jim Kelly had overthrown first in handling Mike Kelly's easy offering. Mike counted on his battery mate's single. Jim Kelly knocked down Willis' hard driven ball but could not recover it in time to get Mike Kelly at the plate. South Bend scored first In the fifth when Allen led off with a single. He was caught napping off first but reached second safely when Evers dropped Gygli's throw. The next two men up were retired then Baschang scored Allen with a single to right Had it not been for Evers costly error Alnsworth would have shut out South Bend. Donate Locals First Run. - Richmond's lone run was donated by Allen and Grodlck when Grodlck fumbled Gygli's roller and the Quaker first baseman advanced to second on Rapp's infield out. Then Allen, after making a pretty stop of Donahue's offering, threw wild to first, permitting Gygli to score. In an effort to improve the Quakers hitting strength Manager Myers took Wilcox out of the lineup and sent Donahue to left field, but Big: Bill failed to show anything at the bat although he figured in a sparkling double play. After capturing Callahan's fly in the first Donahue, by a pretty peg, nipped Collins off first. Jim Kelly started a Richmond rally in the tenth but all In vain. After be had singled with one down, Kreg and Alnsworth struck out. In the Majors NATIONAL At Brooklyn R. H. E.
