Xt was the Elephants' first defeat and dropped them to a second place tie with the United Fuel of Denver, each having won three and lost none. Bunched in a deadlock for third with two wins and one lose apiece are the Lot Angeles Californians, Danciger Road Runners of Ptmpa, Texas, Lexington, Neb., and Colorado Ice of Denver. In Saturday's doubleheader Los Angeles confronted Pampa, and Lexington was to play the Ice team. The losers will be eliminated, to leave five teams to battle for top money. The tournament will dose probably Tuesday. The Eason Oilers of Enid. Okla.. highly rated in pre-tourney talk as a a&ngerous contender, faded from the scene Friday when the United Fuel outfit struck a 4-to-2 trimming on them in the sharpest-played game seen In the tourney to date. After exhibiting heads-up baseball In their previous three games, the White Elephants exploded to bits before the murderous attack of the Texans. Six negro pitchers tried vainly to shut off the fusillade of base-hits, but none suoceeded until the game had been converted into a farce before a capacity crowd. Larfv Cox and Chet Falk, each with four safeties, beat the tempo for Humble's l»-hit drive, while bases on bells end numerous pac h*. dermic errors added to the slaughter.

His hits have been good for 16 total bases. With his two best pitchers both apparently ready to work. Manager Nick Urban of the Eason Oilers Fri cty afternoon elected instead to send Kester Richards out against the Fuelmen. It was Richards’ first assignment In the tournament and he lasted just two-thirds of &a inning, the Denverites ooinlng all four runs on four hits and a base on balls before John Clowers was called to replace him.
