though they did not secure score until the
fifth inning, and the score stood to 2 in
favor OF Winterport up to the seventh. thew
won out in fine style. During the last half
OF the seventh inning Manager Whitcomb
quietly went among his men and gave them
some tips he had picked up from obserya-
ton OF the play, and they responding to his
suggestions succeeded in punching their
hits, thereby making ten scores in the last
Two innings, the game standing 70 to at the
finish in favor of Searsport Features of
the game were three double plays made at
second, and one double play at third. The
boys are more than pleased with the recep-
ton and entertainment given them, and we
predict the keys of the town will be given
the Winterport boys when they come here
to play the return game.
