The Mesa victory put a sudden end to Tucson's winning streak, which had continued through three games, and had lifted the Cubs from the cellar position In the league race. The Jewels started their scoring In the first Inning when five runs were counted, and thereafter pushed runs across the plate almost at will, aa the result of their 19 hits which counted for 25 bases. Among the hits waa tha home run of Jacobs, who was called to the mound to relieve Norelga In the sixth inning when the Cubs counted five runs. The Jewels scored In every Inning except the ninth. James started the game for Tucson, but was knocked out In the first inning.

Seaton followed In the box, but fared little better, and then Kellner was called on to do mound duty. Kellner, as a result of the match he pitched and won Friday, was In little condition to again assume the twirling burden. The game was featured by tne hard hitting of the heavy end of the Mesa wrecking crew. Between them the first four In the Mesa batting order counted 11 of the 19 hits, Gottleiber leading with a double and three singles in four times up. Gottleiber scored four of the.

Mesa runs. As result of their victory the Jewels cling to the heels of the league-leading Miners, who now hold the top by a margin of one game.

After Phoenix had held the lead through seven innings he Miners came back in the eighth and scored three rung to knot the count. Neither team was able to put a run across in the ninth, tut In the tenth Whipple's muff of Marty's fly to right and a misjudgment of the Infield enabled the Miners to score the winning counter. The tieing runs also were due to fielding misplays on the part of the Tigers. Both Smith, who pitched for the Tigers until he wag knocked out of the box in the eingth inning, and Quinn, who went the route for the Miners, were hit hard.

Phoenix got two more in the second inning on Fowler's hot single to third base, Gillette's infield hit, Flickinger's sacrifice fly and Hegi's two-base blow. The Tieers scored another in the third on Teaney's single, Warren's bunt and Whipple's infield blow. Miami also scored a run in the third when Ornelas got a home run on the fielder's failure to handle his liner into right field.

TAKIT IIP The Pay'n Takit Commercial league nine blew up in the sixth inning of their game 'wtih the Phoenix Giants at Riverside park yesterday, and permitted six runs to cross the pan. The final score of the encounter was 7 to 1. The contest, up until the sixth inning was marked by little hitting and sensational fielding on the part of both nines, while each of the opposing pitchers were twirling excellent ball. The Pay'n Takit aggregation had succeeded during the early frames in pushing one run across by bunching blows. In the sixth, however, three errors, two wild throws and a succession of hits enabled the Giants to sew- up the game.

Pay'n Takit again settled down after the one disastrous inning, holding the Giants to a single counter during the closing frames. The game was featured by the pitching of Hall, who held the Giants to three hits up until the sixth inning. Walls of most houses in Greece are calcimined.
