After six and one-half Innings of pretty cute pastime had been shown to ten bucks worth of paid customers. Vmps Mc An dre s decided that the skies were too leaky to permit further cojibat between the Vinton Street Merchants and the Council Bluffs Young Men's Christian as sociation at Chris Lyck park yesterday afternoon. The Merchants were ahead, 1 to 0, so the honor of battling the Bran dels stores for the championship Is their. The game yesterday waa Ir.rgely a fray between the opposing pitchers. Don Guinnee, who waa railed back from Kan sas to work In the game, and Jim Moylan. Both performed neatly, but Moylan had the edne.' Both allowed five blng'rs. but Guinnee gave four bases on halls to Moy lan's none and the Merchant whiffed seven to the Rluffs boy's three. Both smacked out two honest to good news hits and thus led in batting. The Bluffs . boys were disappointed t the weather gink as they had a bunch they were booked to win In .the, seventh.' But the rain Interfered and McAndrews called the game, reverting- the score back to the sixth. McAndrews handled the Indicator In nifty style and had no trouble with the athlctra, although the spectators rldlculated some of his Judgment In scathing accents. Merchant Earn Han. The Merchants scored their lone count In the second stanza. Sherer opened with a drive to center and Wachtler sacrificed 'him to second. McCoy's drive to r$At scored Sherer. Toc"ay at Chris I.yck's park the Mer chants will mix with the team from the Brnndeis stores. A bloody battle s ex pected as both teams are cruelly disposed. The winning team will meet St Paul In the first battle for the championship of the cities of the country. Over 200 work ris In the Brandels stores will be out and the Merchants will have a gang of sup potters on hand. The Merchants will probably use the same line up and the Brandels lineup will be as follows: B. Boyle, short; Barney, second; Hay ward, center; L.
