While Closman Does Fin Work
Until that Terrible Three
BrtKRer. ST. JOSEPH. Mo., May l.-(8pcclal Tel
gram.) With tbe icoro 6 to 3 In favor of
Omaha and the game apparently safety
tucked away today, Closman weakened In
the last half of the ninth Inning nnd
after hs had walked Tunnchlll and 11.
'Watson, a single by Ochs filled the bases.
"Westerxll singled, scoring Tannehlll and
then O. Watson, with three balls, iwo
trlkes on him and two men gone, tripled,
cleaning the paths and winning tho game
"for St. Joseph, the final count being 7
to 6.
Tannehlll. another southpaw, opposed
Closman, and both of them had excellent,
control, errors behind them figuring
prominently In tho tally getting
St. Joseph was farther weakened by the
Absence of Shortstop Melhkc, while Thorn
nson's place In Omaha's outfield was
filled by-Noff.
Omaha Takes Lead.
Omaha sot off In the lead In the first
Inning, when Cople doubled, took third
on an Infield out and scored on Notfa
sacrifice fly.
In the second the visitors got four
snore on two hits and a brace of errors.
It was the ninth before Omaha scored
Main. In that seoalon Closman walked
and was put over the plate with singles
by Coyle and Justice) 8t. Joseph got one
run In the first, third and eighth respect
ively before tho ninth Inning rally put
them winners.
Justice had a bad day at short, booting
two balls straight at him, although he
had four outs and four assists to his
credit at he finish.
"Wind Slake One Score.
Kane made one of Omaha's tallies In
the second, with the aid of the wind.
On the third ball pitched to him ho drove
It straight up 1 nthe air over home plate
and had rounded first when It came
down and landed "in fair territory two
feet In front of the plate.
Before It could be captured Kane was
roosting; on second and afterwards came
home on Tannehlll'" bad throw to first,
In an effort to head off Schlpke Kane and
Congalton were robbed of what looked
to be flure extra'base hits by two running
retches by Zwllllnr.
A heavy wind made- fielding of flies
difficult and under unfavorable condi
tions the fielding on both sides was bril
liant at times.. Score:

COACH IS AFRAID STUDIES
WILL INTERFERE WITH SPORT
ANN ARBOR, Mich., April 1. Coach
Rickey of the University ot Michigan
base ball squad Is worried about Sister,
his star pitcher. This young man in ad
dition to holding the strike out record of
the Wolverine pitching staff, has a bat
ting average of .62 for thlrty-slx times
at bat In the nine games In which he has
participated this spring. In spite of this,
Slaler ambition is to shine In his class
work and Rickey Is afraid his studious
disposition would ruin "his batting eye."
Official averages for the ten gamea
played by Michigan so far this year show
the team has hit at a .331 clip. Slsler
leads the squad, with Catcher Rodgers
second with .488.
