In orrt- of tht !.,
games even seen on the local lot the
Longhorns took the first set-to of the
series by a score 1-0 score. The
game was a beautiful exhibitiion of
air-tight pitching; both Daniels and
Falk being almost invincible. ’ Altho
the victory went to the star portside
hurler of the Orange and White he
was really out-pitched by Freshman
Daniels who allowed but one binglo
and that a lucky one. i r -At the same
time the Aggies were amassing a
total of five safe blows against the
chesty Mr. Falk but when a hit meant
a run the husky left-hander was in
vincible. Daniels is certainly pitch
ing in hard luck and with a jinx
right on top of him as this is the
second time he has held his oppon
ents to less than three hits and yet
lost the game.
The lone tally of the game came
in the fourth frame when Greer re
ceived a pass, went to second when
Barry took one ia the riba and scor
ed on Robertson’s lucky hit to right.
After this the Longhorns never
threatened to score again while the
big opportunity of the Farmers came
in the last of the ninth. Lewis open
ed the session by flying out to right
but ’’Red” Lackey, pinch hitting for
Guynes, brought joy to the Aggie
hearts by singling to the left garden.
Kubena took the Irishmans place at
first, was sacrificed to second by'
Rothe and in the confusion the fleet
Kubena went on to third where he
was replaced by Smith. On an at
tempted squeese. Smith was caught
off „ third whan Forrest flailed te
hunt and the Aggies chance went
glimmering.
