Land Single Run During
the Struggle.

Yesterdays game between Raleigh and
Tarboro at the Fair Grounds resulted
in second easy victory for Raleigh by
score of eight to one.
There were about three hundred peo-
pie present who saw the Red Birds play
hard and fast for four innings. After
that, with lead of seven, it was so
easy that the Raleigh team took it in
happy lucky style.
Tarboro is really in bad shape. This
is caused by the absence of Foster,
skipped to Darlington, the sickness of
Weddige, who is not able to be out and
the enforced playing of men in positions
they are not accustomed to playing.
The hoo-doo OF the Tar boys yesterday
was Smith At their best he would be
a hard proposition, and yesterday he was
terrific. At the end of five innings he had
yielded but one hit, giving only five in the
entire game.
Tarboro scored only in the sixth in
ming. This started with three bagger
in left by Kemmer. Russell followed with
long fly to Stanley in centre, who threw
TO Hennager as relay, but Hennager
was not expecting it and was looking at
Ke MINER who scored. The next two men
fell ~ TIC wayside
The game opened with Tarboro up and
Spratt famed. Gilligan was hit by the
ball, Pulsfer flew out on foul to Curran,
Kemmer singled and Russell went out
from Powers to Stocksdale. In Raleighs
half Powers reached first on a single, but
the next three were out.
The second yielded nothing to Tarboro
though Philips got to first being hit by
the ball. In Raeigh's half there We're
four runs. Kelly hit in right, Hennagcr
hunted and beat it out. Stocksdale did
the same. With bases full Curran hit in
left and Kelly scored. Smith followed with
hit in centre, scoring Hennager but
Stocksdale was caught at home and Smith
went to second. In an effort to catch
Smith between second and third kemmer
muifed the ball and Smith scored Powers
retired short stop to first and Atz went
out from Slagle to Russell.
There was no scoring in the third, Raj
eigh being retired curiously. Stanley had
reached third and Hennager was on first
with two men down. Slagle made balk
to first and Hennager was allowed second.
Stanley was called to walk home. He did
so and was touched with the ball, and
or Umpire Weeks decision that he was
not entitled to a base was called out.
In the fourth Raleigh put three runs
10 the good. Stocksdale walked, and
Curran was cut on foul fly to Kemmer.
Gilligan's error put Smith on first. With
Powers up and double steal, Stoksdale
scores as Powers goes out from second
to first. Atz lands a two bagger in left
and Smith hits hot to to Hempleman, the
ball escapes and Atz scores. Sorbcr flies
in centre.
The last run of the walk-over was
scored by Raleigh in the seventh. On
Gilligans poor throw Sorber reached first.
Kelly gets there on Hempleman's tumble,
but was later declared out at first, though
he was not touched. Hennager hit in
centre and Sorber scored. Hennager was
caught at second and Stocksdale ended
the inning from Hempleman to Russell.
The closing inning for Tapboro started
with Hempleman going out from Smith to
Stocksdale. Wolf hit in left and reached
second on a passed ball. Here he was
later caught naprrr much to Smiths
delight. Philips gently famed and the
game was over.
Mr. Weeks, who umpired the game,
gave general satisfaction, his errors be-
ing very few. There was an absence
of senscless kicking and the people in
attendance enjoyed the absence of fuss
