Today's game starts at 2:30. Salt Lake, April 7. On the port-side port-side of the box score thero is a column col-umn over which stands the letter "E." Few of the real fans consult this little lit-tle pile of figures, most of them ciphers, ci-phers, for they want to know what their friends or foes are hitting and are not so much concerned as to what they do in the field. But this "E" column trips many an ambitious fielder and sends scores of clubs into the lost side of the standing. And what that pile of figures represents repre-sents started all the trouble in yesterday's yes-terday's game. Had there been nothing noth-ing but ciphers down the line the Utes would have had a chance. But three errors, for that is what the "E" stands for, started all the trouble for Blank's men, and started Oakland on its run gathering, that accounted for its first win of the season. The final count read 5 to 1 In favor of the in-vo.fi in-vo.fi 6rs Bert' Hall, the Ute flingor, was the victim of his fielders' nuscues and boneheadB. Bert pitcher a grand game, and with any kind of support should have won. The luck was against him, however, as the Utes went to piece in the first frame when a bone by Orr and Murphy Mur-phy allowed the Oaks to chalk up two counters.
