SPORTING NOTES.

of throwers.
Rickert was the bright particular
star yesterday.
Miller had better report pretty soon
we are shy of pitchers.
That throw of Ricket from l.ft to
thlrd base was a wonder.
Worcester riders at the bicycle meets
the Fourth, did excellent work.
There were a number of cheap sports
IN the grand stand yesterday.
The fans say that OLoughlin roast
ca worcester, and the fans ought to
The Worcesters have won all their
series thus far, excepting the one with
Montreal
The experiment of having one man
pitch two successive days did not work
yesterday.
Too bad we didn't get chance to play
Off those two postponed games with
Syracuse.
Now for the away trombone games
Let us win our share and come bacl,
still in the lead
Bert Livermore and Emil Leclaire
split even at the meet at Westboro,
the Fourth.
Manager Leonard may find out before
long he made mistake by letting
OConnor go.
Horton is pitching the ball of his
life. He is Worcesters one steady, al
ways reliable twirler.
1t was Boston's old trick yesterday
in putting Klobedanz in the box. 1t
didn't work, however.
The Worcester county championships
will be held by the speedy rider of the
Century club, Charlie Drury.
Yeager had considerable fault to find
with the chest protector. 1t would not
hold air. and offered no protection.
The Viewpoints speedy trio won the
best prize offered at the meet of the
Associated Cycle clubs the Fourth
1t was hard lines for O'Connor to get
released after making the hit that
brought in the two winning runs.
The left field of both teams showed up
strongly. Both Hernon and Rickert
spoiled opposing batsmen of long hits.
The Worcester players crossed their
legs while Harrington was at bat in
the eighth, and Harrington walked on
called balls.
Manager Leonards action in squelch-
ing sport who was disturbing the
grandstand offering bets, caused TIE
crowd to applaud.
Hanchett was not entirely satisfe ed
with the outcome of the match race
with Charlie Drury and is anxious to
meet him again.
1t isn't bad luck for the Worcesters
to have the initial position on opening
the trip. They'll be in great luck if
they come back there,
Horton did great job covering first
once on an infield hit which got past
Carr, but which was corraled by Nc
Quaid back of the line.-
Leclaire and Livermore make a fast
pair of winners for the Worcester Cy
Gle club. and won their share of the
races at Westboro the Fourth.
]. Fred Powers exhibition came up
to the expectations of his friends,
when he proved that he was tie best
all around athlete of the world.
O'Loughlin is really worse offender
than Burns. Burns was rotten and
realized it; O'Loughlin's self-conceit
almost exceeds his incompetency
OLoughlin should watch plays and
give the decisions after they are made
His work yesterday showed that he
jumps at conclusions too quickly.
The crowd yelled for Kloby to remain
in the game, having the utmost conf
dence in his ability to pitch out the
visitors, even If they had a good lead.
The crowd did not want Kloby TO
leave the box. They stih had corfi-
dence in him and yelled to him to 60
back, but Leonard ruled otherwise.
Murray was out twice in the first inn
ing, but O'Loughlin wasn't looking. An
umpire is supposed to see the plays and
not be throwing bouquets at himself.
Bert Livermore is showing up in mis-
old time form, and can be depended
upon to keep the local cracks of the
hoard track riding to retain their
laurels.
The game was a distinct personal
triumph for Horton Few pitchers
would have started in with dscour-
aging handicap of six runs and won
out the game.
Prospects are now not very bright
for the construction of the board BIZ
cycle track In this city by the Asso-
ciated Cycle clubs as the result If IN :
financial outcome of the races at West
boro.
Kuhns rejoices in a new soubriquet
The fans have dubbed him Sheriff, in
view of the fact that he is a constable
when not playing ball. This explains
how he is able to pinch" the Lall SO
deftly.
O'Loughlin goes with the winning
/ team invariably. When Providen ce
was leading. that team got all the close
decisions and 100 per cent of the rest ;
when Worcester began to gain, lie
couldn't throw bouquets fast enough.
Somebody in the grandstand had lit
tie fun with Horton. The latter didn't
like II and sang out from the bench:
you can say that up there where /
can't talk to you. You can't say 1t af-
ter the game" The voice retaliated
with, IF you'll come down TO 60 pounds
I'll go against you" The laugh was on
Horton.
