SPORTING SECTION THE LINCOLN SUNDAY STAR FOURTEENTH i'EAR A A A LINCOLN. SUNDAY, Al UL ST (i, J91U. SUNDAY EDITION FOUR PAGES ATHLETES 11 Two-Baggers By Latty Lattimore and Irl Chester Morse Turn the Trick. Error Enables Drummers to Tie Score, But Lincoln Grabs Game, 5 to 4. St.

Joseph, Aug. Ducklings outlasted the Drummers in the heat today and bagged a 5 to 4 victory after a torrid contest of eleven innings. Jack Halla started the pitching for the visitors and lasted ten innings, when he wilted from the hejt and gave way to Carl East. Roy Patterson, veteran pus- timer, hurled eight innings for the Drummers and then was superseded by Borer, one of Jack Holland's newest pitchers. The Holmes clan had compiled a comfortable lead of 4 to 2 when the i Inning rolled around and all Hulla and his pals needed was to blank the Drummers in one more round and the aigu- ment would be over But that was -nhcie the Ducklings failed to perform ui to the requirements of the situation.

Honolulu Williams, a pitcher, was substituted to pinch-hit for Patterson and poled a single to right. Wright grounded to Tony Smith nt short and Williams -RJS forced at second. Keating popped to Lattimore for the second out, but Jourdan thumped a triple to the right field fence, scoring Wright. Klrkham hit to short and Jourdan scored the tieing run when Smith high to first. Sullhan filed to Lober for the third out.

The Drummers looked more dangerous in the tenth, when McClelland led off with a three-base hit. Otto Williams fanned and Fusner, the Joetown catcher, then tried the squeeze b-nt. Jack Halla smelled what was coming and fielded the bunt so s-n Iftly to Hick Johnson that McClelland was nailed at the plate. The eleventh saw the Ducklings ramble away with the victory. Latty Lattimore and Irl Morse were the most potent factors In the Lincoln triumph.

Latty landed on the leather for a two-base blow and Morse came through with another two-sacker, sending Latty over the plate The Drummers worked East for two passes to first in their slice of the eleventh, but the Lincoln hurler steadied and kept the Drummers away from the platter. The score: Lincoln-- AB.

Murbarger claims that both these 315 nto have the makings of great champions and expects big- things of both of them, '303 His expectations arc well founded when their half records are taken into consideration. 4 9 5 Dillon, weighs but 170 pounds and measures 5 feet inches, lately grave iloian the beating of his In a .404 I ton round fight.

Moran outweighed IMlloii by thirty-four pounds and stands three and one-half inches higher a 343 I Dillon. This light heavyweight received a more decided decision over Moron than did Jess Willard, who is tho pre.si;nt heavyweight champion. Gus Christie, the other man of Murbargcr's duet, is a promising middleweight of irS pounds and yet managed to hold Ins own in a five-round bout with Dillon. So this future prospects of rising to the very top of the middleweight division loom up most brightly. Lattimore, 2b.

Caddock, In fact, jumped onto tho platform a few days aso nt Creston, where tho Solls-Floto circup was show- infr.

and Issued) a public challenge. The Hulgai Ian, vfhv has taken tho placo of Ootch ns the principal wrestling attraction with the circus, accepted tho Caddnck dell and Jock Curlcy, who manages Hu.s.sanc, promptly began a search for a likely battleground. Lincoln was proposed and ihe state fair pliui was broached. Curley affirmed suggestion and all that is needed to authorize a formal announcement that the match Is made Is the iiostlnir of forfeits. L'aildoclc nnd Hussnne, if matched, mix In one of tlio great bouts of the your In the frame of tlip padded inut.

Twice they were matched for Waterloo, but both bouts were postponed, lifter Dally bad been in stiff training.

Maurell's backer nnd manapror, A Betz, has forwarded a $200 forfeit to the sports editor of this Star to bind the match and tlie articles, if slgn-ed by all parties concerned', will specify that the bout is to be for $500 a side. Ray Papo of Friend, who directs Daily's business affairs, has covered tho forfeit and 'announced that the Illinois backers of Maurell may go Just as high as they like.

Daily recently bumped I a stroke of misfortune by losing 40 acres of fine wheat on his Kearney county faun near Mindon. The wheat lacked only a few days of being ready for the harvest. Then onmo a hail utorm and every straw was driven into the earth. The. wrestling carried no hail insurance ana he estimates his loss at Jl.OOO.

A jolt of that sort has made the lightweight premier anxious to get back into the game to defend his laurels as champion and to bid for a fat stake on the side. The agreement for the Dally- Maurell match will specify winner- take-all, which means that the loser, in addition to his stake money, will draw riot one cent from the gate. These Caddock-Hussane Daily- Maurell bouts will be finish contests in the full sense or no money for the Srapplers.
