Bob Allen’s slugging J ayhawkers

Monday night to take over the league
when the lowly Tigers,

puted supremacy

most of the season, rose up and defeated

cessive loss on Wednesday evening.

The Jayhawker - Wildcat affair
was a slaughter. The Allen men
swung vicidusly at the deliveries of
John Buller and massed a total of 22
hits and 16 runs. Lyman Corlis, in
the meanwhile stopped the Wildcats
cold, allowing them but three hits
and three runs.

Corlis completely tamed the Wild-
cats with his fast ball delivery.
Olander, Cunningham, and Buller
were the only Wildcats to get hits.

Batting honors also went to Olan-
der, who is also basketball star. He
collected four hits out of four trips
to the plate and scored each time.
Bob Allen got four out of five and
Dick Harp connected three times in
four chances.

In the Wildcat’s Wednesday en-
counter they took another beating.
This time from the Tigers. The win-
ners backed up the fine pitching of
Wood. with plenty of base hits and

swamped the highly touted Wildcats

lead. The Jayhawks gained undis-
who have occupied the cellar
the Wildcats for their second suc-

good defensive work.

The Sooners had a bad week when
they dropped two games. On Mon-
day they fell victim to the savage at-
tack of the Huskers, 8-5, and on
Wednesday the J ayhawkers took
their measure 5-2. The last game was
tightly contested and for a while it
appeared as though the youngsters
might be headed for an upset, but
they pulled the game out of the fire
to win.

The Tigers followed their win over
the Wildcats with another over the
Cyclones. The Tigers seem to be on

a definite up grade and their oppon-

ents will do well to be careful against
them. The new Tiger pitcher, Wood,
is plenty good. He pitches in the
night softball league in North Law-
rence. _

The Cyclones pulled one out of the
old trick bag when they upset the
Huskers 7-6 in a thriller. The Husker

 

 

 

outfield had trouble holding the ball
in the pinches and their frequent er-
rors was the greatest single contrib-
uting factor to the Cyclone win.
