In a doubleheader at Cedar River park the Olinois Central and Clute Grocery teams split. Yeomen defeated the Gas Company 4 to 3 in a late battle aided by errors and timely hitting. Bellke and Rosgen left the Gasmen amid a close contest as Hartman shifted positions. Rice yielded 10 safeties but contained the Yeomen, while Price pitched well for Gas Company despite the loss. The event supported Danny O’Neil, the Clinois Central player who suffered a broken leg last week.
