accompanied by large contingent o
enthusiasts. The rivalry was bite
and there was marked contrast be
tween the order of that day and tina
of other Dover contests. Smyrn
was badly crippled and hardly a ma
, played in his regular position. Will
Sevil, Jack Price and Richards wer
called into service. Lenahan was i
the box for Smyrna and in a careles
mood, allowed runs and hits to b
made off of him in the first inning
a Manager Pierce put him in the fielC
and called Herman Seyil to the boz
: The latter pitch splendid game, br
received poor support. Lenahan ALLOW
a ed just one too many pop flies to dro
from his hands, and as a result he wa
dismissed from the game. He left fl
home on the next train. The scoi
was 16 to 5.
