Warmers band of Whitehead ath-
letes is now in pursuit OF Mr.. Ken
nedy' team. Lead by diminutive Mr..
Greene, the Grays went after the visit
ing bunch, mascot and all, and cleaned
them 5 to 0. Do what they would the
losers could not face that simeon of
sand from the shadowy grayness of
which, some monster that could be but
dimly seen. spit fierce and bewildering
shoots and curves at them at which
they could but but fan or pop up into
some awaiting mitt. Their efforts
proved useless, and In spite of them
selves they could not avert the lime
wash. Happy day, even II the 600 as
sembled are still scouting their faces
for bits Of Finkle's park, which found
there a lodging place during the gale
of the session.
Greene had the visitors In distress at
all hours, and he was as good at the
finish as at the getaway. In the nine
rounds they accumulated Just two
little swats, one in the second and one
in the fourth. When they had loaded
the paths thru a hit, Metcalf's error
and q pass to Redmond, the pallid
Schoop struck out. Earlier in the sea-
son certain wise ones doubted II T..
Greene would do, and gave 1t out that
the company would leave him by the
wayside. Now he wears little silver
bell He is too good a man to lose.
While this MIR. Greene was pitching one
Of the games of his life. Mr.. Kennedy
wrestled with various and sundry
lurnpy problems. His mates could
not clout the twirler of the sand
storm, and when they did unhook one
the locals pulled off battling plays that
foiled gents" at the bases and nipped
them on hard outfield chances.
On the other hand the locals were no
great tower of strength when it came
to pelting that southpaW Schoop.
They totaled FIVE. one double, but the
difference was that scarcely single
was wasted They bobbed up when
mostly needed, accounting for the two
earned runs in the first, and another
in the eighth The two others We're
gifts: efforts at attempting Srandstand
plays. and the result OF few foggy
moments, and other foolishness. This
was probably due to the storm at sea,
which got the Standpatters' craft
twisted in its course. There might
have been derelict, who knows?
There was nothing of an explosive
nature in the way the leaders were
BANKED. 1t was all done in that neat
and orderly way characteristic Of the
locals. Taking runs in the opening
round has become a fixed habit with
the Grays. the same as taking nourish-
ment and going to bed is with other
people, It Is noticeable that when
Williams opens the session with MT
his team mates usually straddle the
score board before the round is over.
He opened yesterday with one. Tay-
lor was patient, and walked, and House
hunted. advancing both. Hoy took
Schopp's measure, decided on the one
that suited him and belted 1T in the
middle to deep center. But for the
wind he would have scored, but as IT
was the throw beat him to third. Dur
ing this stirring episode Williams and
and Taylor had trailed home. Warner
broke away in the second with a
high one to right, which the wind
made a hard chance. causing Evernt
to drop 1t. A passed ball put him on
second. and he scored when Williams
drove one to Curtis. who attempted to
nail it with one hand. Just prior to
th,s foolishness the visitors became
aggressive. In their portion OF the
second Eyeritt hit safe. and DUNLAP
hunted to Metcalf. He funlbled along
enoupht TO allow Dunlap to reach first
and Curtis to get to second. Piake
famed and Beaver went out to Metcalf.
Greene passed Redman and the bases
were full. Schopp had the chance OF
his life, but he went out on strikes. In
only one other inning, the fourth, did
they get a man to first. In that round
Everitt walked and after two had gone
went to second on Beavers single, the
second and the last of the day.
The locals were no luckier until the
ninth when Taylor hit thru Kennedy
Int was forced out at second on
Houses hit The Oneida stole. Hoy
walked. and Metcalf's hit scored the
first and put Hoy on third. Metcalf
went down and In the maneuVerlns TO
tag him Hoy stole home. That was
the end. Metcalf dying on first. The
