HONORS

THIS TIME
FRosTeuRe WALKED OFF WITH
ALL THE CIRCLES MADE ON
SATURDAY.
FAiRMoNT GOT THE
BIG END OF THE RUNS MUCH
TO OUR SATISFACTION.

Sunday the locals won Just the bat
tie that people like to see them win

the last man was retired.
I Flanagan started in for Frostbure
but lasted just one inning. Two hits
and one run resulted in that short
space and Brown. the wizard who de
feated us Saturday. took the center
of the stage. His work is all right
but his style is such that he can be
fathomed after the first few trials
/ and the improvement in Fairmont's
batting over Saturday bears out this
theory. He is what is commonly call
ed astrike-out pitcher. Not so Harry
leBlumling. He has head and uses
4 it. Ten hits were registered by the
visitors and but one of their runs was
earned. That's what we call keeping
them scattered Only two men struck
out, both at critical moments, how
ever. The more Blumling performs
in this village, the more popular he
becomes and he deserves his popular
| ity, both on account of his ability pro-
fessionally and by reason of his per-
sonality
Red Fisher was the goods yester-
day. Red gobbled several wicked
chances in the field and his homer in
the sixth drove in two runs. That
sort of evened up for the one Jackson
robbed him of Saturday. Reds going

out there yet; it takes good heart to
stand the kind of ball he's been pro
ducing.
Gibbs struck out in the sixth. ? but
was safe on o. Jackson's drop. Nc
Donald forced him at second and then
came Red. He swung vainly at two
and then leaned against a drop. The
ball shot inside of third and contin-
ued on past J. jackson, who made a
valiant effort to intercept it. Red tore
around those bases like streak and
just managed to beat the throw home.

in the neighborhood of his shoe
strings. AS Harry Blumling walked
to the bench he stopped at the press
box long enough to say, "that's what
makes pitcher want to win his
game
Mcdonald came mighty near pulling
off spectacular piece of work in the
fifth. Two had sat down when F.

up and got it with his glove hand. The
fast short stop turned it loose and
it went a few inches out of Conaway's
reach. Pretty tough luck to get an
error on thing like that.
The absence of rowdyism which
featured Saturdays game was well
come to the faithful. Frostburg has
a bad record up in that section,
Cumberland and few other towns re-
fusing to have athletic relations with
them. They started that sort of play
here Saturday but the crowd soon
hooted them out of it. Their substi-
tute ]. Spates did not play Saturday,
but instead did coaching duty and |
made alleged funny remarks to the
crowd, some of which We're very

he may do better after he has been
away from home a few times.
