Kings Beaten By Cougars, 7-3
The Chicago Cougars topped the Kansas City Kings, 7-3, in Continental Association action at Prairie Park. The game was highlighted by the performance of Chicago pitcher Tom Buchanan. In 8.2 innings, Buchanan surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 5. He allowed 3 runs. The 7th-place Cougars have a record of 40-49.

Chicago used a timely hit from Jerry Smith to get the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Cougars ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a difference-maker.

Smith called the win "a team effort."
