Miss April forgot her showers Monday afternoon at Stoll Field and wintry blasts ruffled her skirts while a
Kentucky ball team was frozen in a
7 to 4 defeat by some diamond dusters from the University of Illinois.
Mr. Jeffries committed a costly error
in the sixth when Illinois made five
runs, and this man Ericson, the blond
Viking from Sweden, fanned the air
with a funny bludgeon when hits in
the pinches meant runs.
Stumbling up from under Southern
skies where four games had been
blown in the gentle breezes, these
Wildcats of Coach Majors' ruffled up
their winter furs and looked as for
midable as a squad of irritated por
cupines on quill parade during the
first three innings when they made
four runs and held the Illinois batsmen to a prayer.
It was the second inning and Raymond Rhoads was shivering at the
bat. He walked. Jovial Johnny Cote
took up his bludgeon and sacrificed
while Rhoads ran to second and then
came home on .Ericson's sharp singe

out.

This ended the Kentucky scoring
and Illinois made five runs in the
sixth when they batted around. They
tallied another run in the ninth when
Sweeney singled and then circled the
bases after the hit rolled through
"
Layman's legs.

game winning margin. Jeffries and
Gilb were the heavy stickers for the
Blue, getting two hits out of five
times at bat. Lawson, Petrel pitcher, struck out nine Kentuckians, and

Wert had a very bad day, walking
seven men and hitting two others with

errors, but the 'Cats could not avail
themselves of many of these as scoring aides.
The second' game ended a tie, 414,

inning rally had pulled them into an
even break, the 'Cats were forced to
leave after the tenth inning In order
to catch a train for Tennessee. Oglethorpe was off to a good start, scoring three runs in the first inning.
Kentucky got two runs in the ninth to
tie the count. Bob Rhoads pitched
the game for Kentucky and aided his
team materially with the willow, hitting a home run, triple, and scoring
three of the four runs.
