Page Two News Phone 3333 THE BUSHVILLE INDIANA Aphone 3223 Monday, July 11, 1932 Anderson Hammers Ball to Rout Merchants, 11-1, League Contest Nichols' Slants Baffle skys Next That loud noise yesterday was baseball artillery bombarding the lowly Merchants into submission by a score of 11 to 1. The Indians held on to third place in the Eastern Indiana loop by pasting Trapp and Haywood for twelve solid blows, four of which were doubles and two triples. Trapp started on the Rushville hill and for four inings held the slugging Anderson outfit without a hit. The visitors bunched two singles and a double with a Merchant error in the fifth for four runs, however, and then drove Trapp from the mound in the seventh. Haywood was also pounded hard in the last two frames, when the winners added five more tallies.

Nichols, Anderson southpaw, had too much on the ball for the locals. He gave up only five hits, three of which were of the infield variety. Linville was the only Merchant able to hold his own with Nichols, getting a single and a triple in four trips. Nichols fanned ten batsmen. The Merchants played bang- up ball in the first four rounds and scored the first run of the game in the third, when two errors, an infield single and sacrifice sent Shepler across the pan.

Benny Devol, with a double and triple, and McGill with a double and two singles, led the Anderson hitters. Both teams fielded crudely, although five bobbles were not nearly so costly as were the half-dozen miscues the Merchants chalked up. Wainwright and Shaw turned in' the fielding features. In the first frame Wainwright raced over back of first for a backhand stab of L. grounder and threw the Indian second baseman out to Shaw.

Shaw climbed the steep bank south of the grandstand to capture high foul in the third. One of the largest crowds witnessed the contest. The second-place Indianapolis Kautskys, who are close on the heels of the leading Dayton Marcos in the race for the league championship, will make their third appearance of the season here next Sunday.
