MOUNT HOLLY 9, BURLINGTON 8.
Mount Holly played at Burlington and
won with considerable ease. The features
were the pitching of Wilson, the fielding
of Logan and Gleason, and pretty catch
by Dunn. Kelly, Denness, Logan and
Sine were the stars at stick work.
Thackara and Carfrey covered second
and third respectively for Burlington.
The former was failure both in the field
and at bat. Ellis was laid off to make
room for Thackara, which was great
mistake.
The game opened with the visitors at
bat Gleason very sensibly hit the ball
to Thackara, who went up in the air, and
Gleason was safe at first. He scored on
Kelly's pretty drive to right and Tobin's
error in letting the ball get through him
and roll a considerable distance, Kelly
taking third. The latter came in on a
single by Logan. Two runs.
Burlington got its first tally in the third

third on a bad throw to first by Green to

In the fourth, Denness, the first man
up, hit to left for two bags and tailed on
Wagner's bad error of Sine's grounder
One run.
-Four innings passed without any more
run getting, but in the ninth Mount Holly
got on hitting streak and scored six
times Green. Wilson, Kelly, Denness
and Sine each singled, which, with three
wild pitches and three errors, brought in
the six runs and removed all doubt as to
the result of the game.
In the last half of the ninth, Burlington
got run on double by Wagner and a
single by Tobin, the game ending with
the score to g.

WHITE HILL 70, DELANco 1

Delanco went to White Hill without
Queen, their star pitcher, so Mallon was
put in and he proved an easy mark, the
home team making 10 hits off his delivery.
The battery work of the White Hill was
superb, Hesley striking out II men, which
is about the seasons record.
Carney played best for the visitors. In
the fourth inning batted ball from Stan
