It was a wonderful game for fans . who love the long hitting game. The Reds had their batting clothes on and i drove Adams and Ponder from the hill. 1 They also slammed out what looked to be the winning run off the Indian Yellow horse in the Heventh. but he checked them the rest of the way. Most of the Reds hits were uselss. r Pirates Heavy Hitters., The Pirates alrfo. did some heavy sluersing, driving Napier and Brenton -from the mound, also collecting 11 hits. - four of which were triples. All but ' cne of their hits figured in their scoring. ' It was anybody's game all the way through. Played under the most adverse weather conditions, the pitching was ineffective and there were many cobbles in the field. The game started in a downpour which eased up after . the first inning but returned in great
er force in the sixth, and the last three
ounds wej-e difficult to get over.
With the exception of a nusjuagea
fly in the first by Bresler, which cost the Reds two runs and a wild threw by Fonseca in the eighth, the fielding was exceptionally good. The Reds outhit the Pirates but were unable to bunch their hit9 as successfully as the Pirates. The Score:

The baseball bat and gloves used by the kids in the vacant lots are taxed 10 per cent. Jewelry and automobile accessories are taxed 5 per cent. Toilet soaps and powders are taxed three per cent.

CITY TENNIS SHARKS WILL MEET MONDAY Tennis sharks and tennis players of the city who are interested in the new courts that are being built in the Glen Miller park are requested to meet at the office of Del Davis, city engineer, in the city building Monday night April 25. At this meeting plans for the use of the court3 will be discussed and if possible it will be decided how the courts can be obtained for use. Every tennis player who is interested in the sport is requested to be present at this meeting.
Now, he said alter the examina
tion had been concluded, "I'll chant you a little ditty about my recent career. I whipped O'Dowd fairly and squarely in Boston. But a lot of surething birds had stuck the roll on Mike to win. They howled and they did it loudly that the newspaper folks thought there was something funny about the decision. Mike took up the
cry, as an alibi, and verv soon every-
body concluded that I had stolen the title." Becomes III. "Mike challenged for a return match. The public demanded it. And just as I was about to say 'yes' I took tick. The illness put me on the sheli tor something like tour months. Therefore, I made no answer to O'Dowds challenge, nor did my manager, Marty Millilea. We're not in the alibi business." "Eventually I got better. I trained quietly. Then, to try myself out, I took on a couple of soft boys. After that I said I was ready for Mike. The articles were signed and then a streak of what some people would call bad luck hit me." "Nearly a week before the fight, I hurt that left hand. Didn't look as If
and he saw it and I guess that was why he refused to allow any claims of Mike about being" hit below the belt. "I think I'll give this hand a rest of a few weeks and loaf, around with the family. Then I'll try to prove to the skeptical fistic world that a cheese champion also can be a fighting champion. I'm going to give every mlddl weight in the game a crack at me.

BUNCHED HITS HELP
KIWANIS CLUB TEAM IN BATTLING PENNSY
Bunched hits, aided by base on balls and errors, enabled the Kiwanis club to defeat the Pennsy in the third game of the Commercial league Thursday afternoon on the Glen Miller diamond. The Exhibition park grounds were too wet to stage a game. Manager Patti, of the railroaders, played the game under protest; His
protest is based upon the grounds that j due to the fact that the Glen diamond has no backstop and the ground rules ! are said to be that the batter is auto-! matically out on the third strike which rule the umpire did not allow.1
A lot of people are surprised when you tell them there is a tax of 10 per cent upon all sporting goods and that this tax is included in the amount you pay for the article. Perhaps this latter fact is one reason why the levy has escaped observation. It is like the 10 per cent tax on admissions to lall games, which is included in the cost of your ticket. This makes the meuta! effect passive rather than active.
