Strong Crimson Crushes Fatigue WHRB Nine, 23-2

A perennially powerful CRIMSON nine, led by Captain B. Eames "Slim" Nelson, overwhelmed WHRB yesterday afternoon, 23 to 2, behind the two-hit pitching of the Crime's ace hurler, John "Fireball" Adler. The radiomen claimed fatigue as the reason for their defeat. As one member said, following the contest, "An orgy can take a lot out of a man." He was referring to the station's recent all-night music shows.

The Crime moved off to a commanding lead in the very first inning, picking up 15 runs off bearded WHRB moundsman Reilly Atkinson, III. The CRIMSON scored one run in each of the remaining eight innings.

The Network picked up its only two runs in the ninth, when two CRIMSON players who had been loaned out to give WHRB a full team homered with the bases empty. Bob "Slugger" Sand and Joe "Long-Ball" Shepard did the power work for WHRB.

For the CRIMSON, every player reached base safely at least once,
