(By Tort.1
Richmond, 7; Dunkirk, q.


Despite the fact that Dunkirk sicked
three twirlers of note on us Sunday af
ternoon, Manager Jessup's reformed,
reorganized team took 'em to 4. The
game started out to be Quaker swat
fest and feast day, I'm fact Curls Car
michael was poled out of the box in the
first inning, then Harry Hay was sub
etituted and. as in the game Saturday,
the lad with the submarine delivery
had the locals up to the seventh, when
Harry became liberal and began to
holler for help. In that inning two
hits, a fielders' choice and a base on
balls made standing room only on the
bags. Harry then walked another
man, forcing in run. Harry wanted
to quit at this stage. but Wolfe coaxed
him to remain on the firing line. In
the eighth Burns led off with hit,
johnson walked, Jessup sacrificed and
Fisher breezed With these two down
Hay scared again and walked the next
two men. forcing another run over the
pan. Harry again became disguised
with himself and insisted on retiring.
Gray went in the box and ended the in
ming by forcing Plummer to die on an
out to first.
Would Have Won Anyhow.
Even had Mr.. Hay not violated the
anti-pass law, Richmond would have
won to 4. In the first the Quakers
counted twice on pass to Plummer
and hits by Weaver and Parker. The
inning closed in pretty double play,
pulled off by Romine and Wills, Par
ker and Burns being the victims.
In the second Johnson hit to third,
but Wills missed the assist ana Rolly
wendell his way to second. Jessup
sacrificed him to third and the big
fellow counted on Fishers out to Grey.
In the first of the third with two down
Dunkirk fell upon Mr.. Fleming for two
singles and a scorching three Dagger by
Grey These hits counted for two runs.
Dunkirk presented the Quakers two
runs in the local third Bush led off
with a single. Plummer lifted a short
one to left which Gray dropped. Weav-
err dumped a dinky to Hay and the
fleet footed Mr.. Bush brought the
stands up bowling by scoring from Sec |
ond by remarkable sprint. This
stunt agitated Mr.. Hay and he heaved
high one which got past Wolfe and
allowed Plummer to score. After this
misfortune Dunkirk braced and retired
the side. A base on balls and Gray's
second three Dagger counted one run
for Dunkirk in the fifth. In the sixth
Dunkirk brought in their fourth and
last tally on a base on balls and two
singles.
Quaker Fielding Perfect.
The game was not an interesting one
to watch. but it had some redeeming
features, the most pleasing of which
was the perfect fielding of the Quakers.
Bush ran the bags like wild man. He
got to base every time up except once.
In the field he took six chances with
out wabble. Fisher made his initial
bow before the populace. who were
present in large chunks. as first base
man. The southpaw was as kittenish
as a yearling and ate everything that
came his way. Mr.. Johnson. the Quin-
cy third Dagger was in the game and
he performed more than satisfactorily.
Big Gray. the |. o. league slugger, gave
one of his rare exhibitions of beating
up on the ball. The big fellow crack
ed out two beaut triples, which brought
in two runs. Score:
