THE DIAMOND.
For Once the Holyoke Stickers
 Failed to Land.

Plank of Norwich Held Them Down to
 Four Hits-Bridgepor Defeated Poor
 New London and Norwich Wins a
 Fast Game from New Haven-Stand-
 ing of the Pitchers and the Teams.
 Norwich, June 1O.-Despite the fact that Holyoke lost by quite a margin, the game here yesterday afternoon was full of brilliant playing in which both teams figured. Two errors by Holyoke were costly, while both of the misplays by Norwich figured in the score. Nor wich had two batting rallies in which they unmercifully landed on Lyman, and his removal was imminent. He strengthened up, however, and pitch the. game out. Plank, on the other hand, was found for only four hits, one Of which was a scratch and during seven innings after the first only twen- ty-one men went to bat. Fitzpatrick made beautiful stop in the second, cutting off an apparent single by Plank, while Mccormick at third did some clever fielding of hafd-hit balls. The batting of Norwich was opportune and most consistent.
 With two out in the first, Slater drove a single out to right, which got by Bowling, and he stopped at second. Mccormick then drove a two-bagger over Dowling's head and Slater scored. Norwich was not quite as strenuous in this half as the Paperm akers, but Ank- lam. who reached first when Turner was hit by a batted ball, stole second and scored on Tighe's Texas leaguer to right. Tighe singled again in the sec ond and was advanced by Harrington's sacrifice, but was caught off base and quite furry arose with the umpire as the center piece of attraction. In the fifth Lyman got his bumps. Bowling drove out a single, Connolly repeated and was safe on second when Iandy muffed the throw of Plans grounder. Turner hit to Tighe, Anklam sacrificed and singles by Rogers and Harrington netted five runs off of as many hits. Fitzpatrick and Slater worked in a pretty double in the seventh after Turner in Norwich's half. had cut off a two-bagger from Rossman's bat in deep right, by running away out of his position.
 After two were out in the eighth, Connolly planked out a two-sacker to left and Plank drove another to right, scoring Connolly and coming in himself on Batch's muff. Holyoke took a brace in the ninth when Batch got to first on Harrington's bad throw, and he and Fitzpatrick came home on singles by Fitzpatrick and Rossman. They could do no more and Norwich had beaten Ho1yoke for the second time at home. Hannafin of Holyoka who is playing short for Norwich, played good field ing game, but is weak at the bat. The score:
