Huntington high school suffered Its worse defeat of the season Saturday afternoon when the Red and Black foam crumbled after retting an apparently secure lead and was defeated 10 to 8 by Blnffton. Bluffton had been defeated there last week by a 13 to 3 score. The many errors on the part of the Huntington team were responsible for the loss, as the Red and Black players got ten earned hits to their opponents seven. Eleven misplnys were made by the Vikings, which were responsible for nearly all of the runs scored by the Bluffton Tigers. The neit game for the Vikings will be on Wednesday when the Sweetser high school team will be jdayed on their own diamond.

Conch Kinsey regards this g.ime. us coming at a fortunate time on the whrdule as it will give the Hunt inrtnn nlavers chance to get together again before tackling Munoic at Muneie Goshorn, lb on rYiday. Two days of the hardest kind "erxog, ad of practice will be held this week before the Sweetser game, it was said. Hosier Starts on Mound'. nosier started on the mound for Huntington for the first five innings.

Dur ing this time, he allowed only three hits end five runs. He struck out six batters and walked nosier pitched a good game during the time he was in but was removed because he showed sirns of faltering in the fifth frame when he walked two men in succession Kindler replaced Hosier and got off to a noor start. Riz, the first Bluffton man up. slammed the ball into deep cen ter field for a homer. The neit batter was hit by a pitched ball and the Huntington team went to pieces, letting Bluff ton get five runs on two hits.

During the last four innings Kindler allowed four bits and eleven runs. He struck outeigbt men and wallsed one. Fail to Support Kindler The majority of the runs scored on Kindler were due tojhe lack of support given him by bis teammates. During the eighth inning Bluffton scored six runs on only one hit. Five errors on the oart of the Huntington team responsible for the scoring.

i Ralston pitched a nice steady game for the Bluffton He gave ten hits nnd eight runs but struck out fourteen batters, walked one and struck one. He was fast on fielding and Huntington was not able to succeed with its bunting plays. la the seventh inning Urshel, Hunt ington left fielder, was struck on the face by a pitched ball. He was injured so badly that he had to be removed after lie bad reached first base. Vikings Rally in Sixth In the sixth inning, following the scoring spree of Bluffton, the Vikings started a rally and got tbre runners around the bases on two hits, two errors and a sacrifice hit.

This made the score stand 10 to for the visiting team and the crowd was hoping that the Red and Black nine could tie the score. Kindler did bis part in the seventh frame when he only pitched ten balls to three Bluffton batters, retiring them in one, two, three order. The Tigers put the game on ice. in the next inning, however, by getting six runs. Huntington played its best ball in the first and ninth innings.

In the first in ning two runners scored and four got on base. Bluffton was held scoreless during this frame. Iu the last frame the Norse were fighting and disposed of the Bluffton team with only one batter getting to first base. Dunng their half of the last inmng the local players collected thre hits and scored two runs, One player struck out, another sacrificed and a third was caught trjing to steal second base, Bluffton forced over two runs in the second inning to tie the count at 2 all In the last half of the same inning Hunt ington took a one point lead when Smith slammed "the ball into right field for a three bagger. The Tigers took their big lead in the next toning when the visitors got one hit and thre stolen bases to bring in three runners.

Ilomerun la Sixth A feature of the game was a bomerun hit by liix, Bluffton center fielder, in the sixth inning. There were no men on base at the time. The number of stolen bases during the game was large, getting five and Blufftou five. Baxter and Weileman of the Tigers both got doubles. Smith got a three bagger for the II.

We're got It on Bluffton at that The Vikings beat them ten points and the Tigers only defeated Huntington here by eight There were only eleven errors marked np against Huntington.

Six of these came in the eighth inning and were responsible for six. runs. It waa awful, to see the slaughter. Bluffton had eight, errors marked np against them bat they'were scattered and didn't do so much For awhile in the sixth inning we thought that the Yikings would tie the score, as three Huntington run sera came in and the score stood 10 to 6. Kindler pitched superb in the next inning, hurling only ten balls to retire the Bluffton batters one, two, three.

Huntington played real ball during' 'the last half of the ninth. There were fire batters np, three hit safely, one sacrificed, two scored, one struck out and another was caught stealing 1 second.
