for the Haddontield club
White Hills infeld had another of those
yellow streaks which has been the usual

shifting about of the team is remarkable

able
Wilson, formerly of Mount Holly,
pitched great game for Frankfort
against Tacony yesterday. frankfort
womb to 2.
Delanco, after promising faithfully to
be here on time, failed to appear until
four o'clock, and game was not called I'M
til 4.20 in consequence

by the score of 9 to 2. Kervin, of the P.
R. R., occupied the box for Riverside
l. - L..
Bordentown and White Hill played an
exhibition game on the formers ground
yesterday. Bordentown won-2O to 8.
Vinson, who pitched for White HILL was
hit hard, although given poor support, his
team having 10 errors.
Hitchner, who has been released by
Bordentown, will likely fill one of the
vacancies on the Mount Holly team the
balance of the season. Bush, formerly of
Palmyra, will probably occupy the pitch
er's box for Bordentown hereafter.
1t depends upon Burlington and Bor-
dentown as to which of the leaders will
win the pennant. The former club has
two more games with White Hill, and
Bordentown two with Beverly. A tie for
first place between Beverly and White
Hill is among the possibilities.
During the Palmyra Beverly game OF
August 26, McFetridge twisted the mus
Giles of his right shoulder. and Peterson's
right hand was badly torn by a foul tip.
In consequence of these accidents, Nc
Fetridge was unable to occupy the box
last Saturday, and Peterson is probably
out of the game for the balance of the
League SERIES
1t was expected that Vinson would oc-
cupy the box for DeIanco on Satu rday,
but he disappointed the club at the last
moment Instead of coming to Mount
Holly he went to White Hill 10 do the
twirling for that team in place of Hesley
The Delanco management telegraphed a
protest to White Hill, the result being
that Vinson did not play at all just
what reason the White Hill management
had for engaging the player it is difficult
to imagine, for there are few persons in
deed who would take strange and partly
unknown pitcher in preference to a tried
and successful man like Hesley. Perhaps
it was Hesley himself who asked for
change. At any rate it was strange
proceeding. Vinson claims that Delanco
agreed to pay his expenses but did not do
so on August Goth, for which reason, he
says, he left them.
