Getting to Howard in the early In jnings, causing his retirement at the end of the third, and profiting by Marshalltown's misplays, the Clinton Pilots scored six runs before the home I team had drawn blood in the opening frame of the season on the home |srounds Tuesday afternoon, and eventually won by a majority of 6 to 4. A holiday crowd of almost 3,000 people witnessed the game. Coming* from behind, after they were apparently hopelessly beaten, the I home guard made a determined effort I to claim the verdict, staging two ral I lies, hut falling short by a brace of tallies of tieing up the returns. Howard's service, which was "nuts" for the visiting aggregation, slips in fielding ly the home outfit at critical stages, some swell fielding on occasion ly the visitors, and the break of luck united to defeat Boyle's boys in the first home game. At that the game was not devoid of its thrills.

Williams, who had pitched the first ball for Marshalltown's first organized club just fifty years ago this summer, bent and feeble by time's heavy hand, sent the ball up as he did a half cen tury ago. but it lacked the old-time speed and deceptive break which caused him to be regarded as a master Boyle's Team Crippled.

I had not sufficiently recovered from his I recent injury at Cedar Rapids to ap pear in his position in the opener. Disorganization of batting order and the absence of men from regular positions, doubtless weakened the home club both offensively and de fensively. Howard Driven From Slab. Howard, the Denver youth, was on the board for the opener, and when he mounted the deck at the conclusion of the opening ceremonials, he car ried the faith and hope of the great crowd brought together to start the season off with a victory. For one in ning he looked the winner, his curves breaking nicely and the first three 'linton batters being retired in order, one on a foul to left field and the other two via first base.

Wilkes opened the round with a clean single and Har rel sent him down with a sacrifice bunt to Collins. A wild heave by Howard moved Wilkes to the far corner, from whence he scored on Xolt's bingle. Schliebner singled, sending Nolt to third, and Miller's safe swat scored the little outfielder. Miller went to second on the throw-in and then stole third.
