knocked unconscious. The little
fellow W as carried out of the ball
grounds and sent to the hospital.
Although seriously hurt he will
recover.

Fetridges speedy inshoots struck
Mack who played second in the place
of O'Niel, ON the side of the head
knocking him down and out. In a
few minutes he recovered but was
very grogy and in the sixth inning
had to retire in favor of O'NieI.
