College Nine Loses To Findlay, Toledo Ineffective pitching and loose field ing cost the Bluffton college baseball team two more chances for victory last week on the local diamond and the Beavers dropped decisions to Findlay college and Toledo univers ity. Against Findlay, the Burckymen were unable to hold an early 8 to 0 lead, and they eventually went down to defeat, 16 to 8. Luginbuhl, Bluffton’s starting pitcher, developed a wild streak in the sixth inning with his team out in front by eight runs. As a result Findlay scored five runs on a single, seven walks and a wild pitch. Six hits and two more passes in the seventh inning gave Findlay six more runs, and the Oilers were out in front to stay. They counted one more tally in the eighth and four in the ninth to sew up the decision. In an effort to stem the avalanche Bluffton used seven pitchers, Lugin buhl, Roszhart, Radulovich, Soash, Tetlow, McLaughlin and Snyder. It was an off day for the entire team when Toledo university’s high powered outfit stopped off here on Friday. Final count in the contest, called at the end of the seventh inning, was 27 to 1. Toledo has one of the finest colle giate teams in this section and among other victories numbers a win over the University of Michigan. Rockport Mrs. Guy Mayberry and Mrs. W. E.
