hours and was one of the longest ever
played in Lansing.

Barton, had little difficulty in scoring
another win when he downed Perrin

games. Captain Olian, similarly dis-
posed of Sarleman, his Spartan oppon-
ent, 6-2, 6-1.

Michigan, defeated Stout of State, los-
ing only one game. The score was 6-1,
6-0.

Bob Fothergill
Robust " outfielder of the Detroit
Tigers who is leading both major
leagues in batting with a mark of .427
for 22 games. "Rhino", as he is called
by his teammates, hit safely in the
first 18 games of the season but his
string of consecutive safeties was
stopped by pitcher Tony Welzer of the
Red Sox last Sunday.
Fothergill's average has taken a
slump during the last week, having;
dropped from well over .500 to his
present standing. His nearest conipet-
itor is Ty Cobb, former 'tigeri manager
who is nov performing in the outer
garden for the Athleti .
Detroit scured Fothergill from Ro-
chester of the International league in
1922, and he has been with the Ti-
gers ever Since, batting over .300 each
