about fifteen years the best OF Fitz in
the matter Of age. and is also faster on
his feet. As to his supposed lack OF
hitting powers. O'Brien declared that he
could fool some people In that respect.
Simply because he has not been hgur'

taken the stand that he cannot HI

Said O'Brien: II guess Al Weinig and
some Of the, lads l have met recently

evening.
The oarsmen held the lead by a safe
margin until the last frame and then
the other five made AZ unexpected gain
and won out by IL pins. Downing struck
out In the last frame and really wor
the game for his side.
The Commons and the Manhattan Fresh
