The only run scored I off Kalina up to that stage was made I when Dick Manchester lifted one over j the right field fence for a home run. But the artillery opened in the seventh and Kalina was driven from the box. With one down Wilks walked and took third when Selph singled over second. Blansit walked and when Dunning hit one for two bags two men scored. Fitzgerald next up dou bled and two more scored. This gave the locals a one-run lead. The eighth inning added three more runs to the right side of the column. Singles Iby Powers, Guess, Dunning and Manchester, and a double by Selph pushed three more across the plate. Thomasville added her last tally in the ninth when Wicker, first man up. lifted one over the fence for the cir cuit. Before the seventh inning we almost refuse to Jell what happened but up to the lucky inning the Muckalees THE AMERICUS DAILY TIMES-RECORDER were trailing behind the Thomasvili? crew. Errors were responsible for the Thomasville scores. Both teams used two pitchers. Doz ier started for Americus, and was traveling nicely when errors gave the visitors the lead and Wagnon yanked the Dawson boy and sent Blansit in. Blansit showed good form and w-orked a pretty game. Kalina started for the visitors and was strong until the seventh, when the Muckalees drove him from the mound. Summerlin, who relieved him, was greeted with a fusilade of bin gles and had a hard time retiring the side. Jack Guess at first, Fitzgerald at second and Selph at third, played a pretty game in the field. Anderson and Murch were the stars for the Thomas ville Hornets.
