nderCHAMPS CHECK JINXAS MASSIE SUBDUESATTACK OF FALCONSHurler Gets Better AsGame Goes On;Mates Hit HardIj The law of averages and Anil derson’s Abattoirs finally caught up Monday night with the Lang• Chevrolet softball team.ctHI-tlftItir The city champs figured that the 11 Falcons were lucky stiffs to have 1- beaten them twice previously this r- season, each time by one-run marts gins, and so they set out to prove 1 their contention in a third clash k between the two teams at Cox (i Field.8 j flow well they proved it was best illustrated by their decisive 8 8 to 4 triumph over the Chevrolets ^ who started off impressively but blew a three run lead acquired in the first Inning.Cliff Massie, author of two consecutive shutout games last week,1 pitched for the champs against theChevrolets for the first time and did a swell job of it.Massie got away to an indifferent start, allowing three runs in j'tbo first round on Smith’s single, a walk to Finlay, an error on Gib-ney’s grounder and a hit by Ruse, but thereafter he was almost Invincible.The only other hits he permitted Lang.* during the remaining eight , innings were two singles grouped , together in the sixth Inning, which produced one run. Finlay’s hit, an , out at first, and Parrett’s safe blow !. accounted for the tally. Cliff re , leased only four hits altogether j and fanned four., The city cnamps won the game !,jas early as the second inning. In j I which stanza they staged a gor-, geous five-run rally, clinching matters then and there.| |In this inning the Abattoirs clustered six hits and were aided by careless fitlding of hit balls. Birk, Peters, Kersey, Anderson. Massie and Leahey got the hi*s and all theruns were scored after two were out.Consecutive doubles by P. Snell and Peters added another Abattoir run in the fourth, and for good 1 measure they counted two more in f the eighth on two errors and P. :a Snell's looping hit over first base. | *I Harry Williams pitched the first *’ four innings for Langs, retiring for 'a pinch hitter, and Frame worked the last four. Anderson's collected ten hits and only one of the bin h gles went to waste. The others a paid dividends in the form of runs. !\ P. Snell, third baseman, and Pe- b ters, first baseman, got two hits u apiece for the champs, each con T tributing a single and double. Snell a also drew a walk and played a fine o defensive game. wBy virtue of the victory, the do f(fending National League title-hold- Lers had first, place all to them- rlt; selves Tuesday, shattering a tie tlwith Langs.
