The Afternoon Game.

| The afternoon game was also lost by
a good safe margin and was also char
acterized by rather loose playing. One
big reason was the good. nice hitting
of the Winthrops and good, nice loose
work by Augusta. About the hit
ting: They did get after our pet Hall
pretty hard it cannot be denied. It's
dollars to doughnuts they couldn't do
it again and every pitcher gets it once
in awhile. and this is the first humping
Halle has got yet. so there's no trouble
here again. Squire Irish got 1t one
bright sunny afternoon in town called
Gardiner. so we are not going to feel
blue about that. Yet that's what won
the game as much as anything.
AS we said before there was lots do
ing besides the ball game and the big
crowd rushed over the diamond like a
flock of sheep from time to time and
once in a while they did get up against
each other. Pitcher Irish got in the most
serious miXup over by first base and
had the nOsebleed afterwards. The
trouble was soon quelled, however, and
the game resumed. There was also
other scraps during and after the game,
but no blood was spilled. Here's the way
the game went by innings:
