WIRY VALDOsTANs.

Savannah Defeated the Wiregrnss
Players 8 10 A Good Game on
Both sides, But the SaVannahtnns
Had the Better of 1.-THE Features
of the Game.
Savannah took another fall out of Vat
dosta yesterday afternoon. The Crack
ers" from South Georgia went down be
fore the Library team on a score of 9
to l.
There was a large crowd and it seemed
TO be chock full of enthusiasm. Valdosta
was represented by some very loud ana
very determined rooters, and they pulled
for their team with vengeance.
Frank, the newsboy, was chief rooter
for Savannah. and he engaged the Val
dosta followers in war of words which
was thoroughly amusing to the grand
stand. He took his stand on the field and
arrogated to himself the work of answer
ing the calls of the Valdosta rooters.
Franks vocabulary, in the use of the ver-
nacular, is extremely large. In that par
ticular line he may he said to be brill
liantly caustic, and he made several root
ers feel the sting of his sharp tongue.
The Savannah team played all around
good ball, but Krenson's pitching was the
feature. The Valdosta team could not
find him all, only four hits being made
of his delivery. His control was excellent
ana his speed terrific. Krenson's powers
OF endurance are wonderful. He is as
strorg at the end of a game as when
he first steps in the box.
The Library boys felded a good game.
Hopkins made three errors at short stop
but that difficult position is one which he
is not used to- McIntre played bang
up second. Bob Brady made a beautiful
running catch of a high fly.
Short was hit freely, but he pitched
steady game. His support was ragged
Clements at short made four bad errors
Johns played a brilliant second and Din
kins caught a long fly from Browns bat
which looked like il was good for two
bases. Ballantyne was not in the game
Mr.. Jack Horrisan umpired and beyond
a few little kicks he gave satisfaction.

but Savannah got four runs in the second
inning on punching hits and three costly
errors by Va.dosta. McIntire hit fly to
