Show OGDEN LOSES TOJiRW Visitors Defeated the Lobsters in the Tenth Inuing by a Score of 2 to 1.. Fans got their money's worth yesterday yes-terday afternoon at the fair grounds v. hen Murray defeated the Lobsters in the tenth Inning of a closely knit-tc-d game by a score of 2 to 1. Up to the very finish victory swung by a thread and there was no telling l.uo whose camp it would fall. Mag- j glo Murphy, who was doing the catapult cata-pult work, Kriormed so well that tho Smelters got but three hits in tho entire content That the visitors captured cap-tured the laurels of victory was not due to their stick work, but to grlev-oiis grlev-oiis errors at critical moments on the part of the Ogden infield. The locals apparently had little difficulty dif-ficulty In finding Hummed, tho sparse iihd lengthy Smelter, who did the twirling for the victors, and sever, times straightened out his curves for safe-ties. Hummel, however, seemed to be possessed of the necessary tiTSshoes and other good luck talismans talis-mans to sidetrack the effectiveness ul the hits and keep them io scattered scat-tered that they could not be converted convert-ed into runs. Even a thrce-ba.se wal-iop wal-iop by Lawrence was so 111 timed that it counted for naught. For the first 'two Innings Murray i!ld not get a hit and lu tho third the team was retired by a very neat double dou-ble play in which Wesslcr, Flake and Bliith were the actors. Wesslor dem- b.'intratcd his ability as a base runner run-ner In Ogden'a part of this fnimo by beating out an infield grounder that vas handled without errors. ; Murray got their run In tbe sixth Inning when Mann hit to left for a single and advanced lo second on a 1-igli illng to first by "Maggie." This bum heave on the part of Murphy wik a costly one and was the only blotch on his work throughout the whole afternoon. The next man up whs slaughtered, but his demise gave .Vj nn ,m opportunity to reach third. Scott bit the ball to third, where Lawrence fumbled it and permitted Mann to score. It was a decidedly i iioariii fl run, but It counted for just us much on the score board. O.aden tie. i the count In the eighth when Wcsrder, who was on third with n stolen base to his credit, was b'-ought homo by a hit to left field by the reliable Dad Clmlln. The score stood tied until in tho tenth when ("nnn, the third visitor to tjce the r'tthrr, bunted and went all the way to third when Lumley, Og-oeii'a Og-oeii'a rotund backstop, fired high to I'.rst. A itti later he came, home ou a paxed ball. No hit was made In this inning, yet In It tbe game was 1 cltlcd by tho Smelters and Ogden, with a neat hit In Its fraction of the ;ippendcd round. R.
