Providence and Hartford broke even
in yesterdays games. Both teams were

playing out of positions. Nyce was

To- be in the right places to head on
balls batted to the outfeld. But the
Grays tied them in We same inning
very easily by hard hitting.
At the end OF six innings Providence
led by a score OF 10 to 3. But in the
seventh and eighth innings Hartford
batsmen began hitting the ball TO the
roped spaces around the field. They
punched hits and runs and In the
eighth inning made their score to 10

wiped out. But Providence increased
the lead by one run produced by good
work hitting and running bases by
Braun and Donovan ana the Grays won
by a score OF III 10 ). Phil Knell
pitched the second game for Hartford.
In this game an error by a substitute

the third by dean hitting. Providence
