1t was another case of baseball, yes

of it; Score: Gardiner, 8, Hallowell 8.
johnson, Gardeners box artist, was
in the Iime-Iight from start to finish.
Foley, Hallowe,rs "try-out," was not
so cfft ctivc. He gave six bases on balls,
though but one affected the score. With
proper support, the game would have
resulted differently, but alas Hallow-
ellis errors were all there and Gardiner
won. Up to the seventh both teams
played ball and good team work saved
:uns for Gardiner. There were mex
pcnSive errors 50 that men were not
retired with usual expedition but no
runs came to Gardiner until the sew
enth-tying HallOwell, who had one to
the good in the sixth.
1t was plain to everybody that john
son was all to the good, and his total
of II men struck out bears out the idea
nicely.
There was q good crowd of over 400
on the Muster field and there was hope
in the heart of Halowell until the last
man went out. Gardiner fans were
spicy and loquacious and it was Gar
diner day for sure.
Features of the game were a left
hand catch of a liner by johnson. and
Chadbourn's catch of liner to third.
