Gardiner VS.. Augusta Today.

Gardiner will play Augusta this after
noon at Quinlby field ana surely all the
fans will be there. The game will be
called a; AS O'Clock and from that time
until the shades OF night begin to fail
a hot contest is expected. The Gardiner
boys practiced on the diamond yesterday
morning and every one of them seemed to
be in fine condition. The fans anticipat t.
a hard battle this afternoon, but they
are confident that the home team will
win.
A Gardiner man. ana one who knows
the game said: Il see very little diff
ference between Gardiner Watcrvlle and
Augusta, but with ordinary luck I pick
our team for first place and Hallowell
for last unless that team strengthens
wonderfully. HallOwell is very weak in
the catching department. at second, shor,
and right field. Hallowen is the only
team that hasn't played inside ball. They
allow their men to swing at the third
one across after two balls have been
called Poor baseball. and that's why
Hallowell doesn't bat harder. They have
been without head all the season AMI
no team can win this way. Barney Kelly
has complete control OF the Gardner
team. and although Wilder and South
well have had league experience the.'
look to the sandy haired boy as leade-.
WatorvlIIe has a stick team but not as
strong i'm the box as Augusta, and good
nitchers go a long way in winning games.
I look for sill the teams to finish strong
and the interest at a high pitch. Gar
diner as a hitting base-running and field
ing team has. | believe the best arGu-
mcnt; hat there's lots Of luck in base
hall and if they beat out Augusta and
lose first place the people OF this city
will be satisfied. A Kindly feeling EXIST

Since the conviction of a BROOKLYN
man. through the efforts of officers of
