The Colonials tied up - the ball game in the eighth when Joe Wheeler walked, Bohonko sacrificed and Wheeler scored on Trot Leary’s double. It was tight baseball from then on and in the eleventh Fulghum walked and Leary was safe on an er ror. Fulghum was then called out at third on a forced play, who to many fans and Manager John Byrum ap peared to be safe. Byrum, after put ting up an argument with Umpire Dutch Overton, went to bat and connected for his first home run of ft"' s the season, which brought to an end I a tenseness which had gripped the | large number of fans during the en ' tire game. John Byrum, Bohonko and Leary each made two hits, while Joe Wheel . er made the other hit of the game. , Buck Wheeler thrilled the crowd in, I the fourth inning by a one-handed stab of a hard-hit t ball which was I labeled as a hit. * Wheeler’s gloved , hand held on to the ball and then 1 completed a double play at first base. , Trot Leary also made a spectacular catch of a fly far out in center field which might have proved disastrous. 1 Golf Club Committee • 1 Ordered Start Work k —— . . i (Continued from Page One) > Davis, J.
