then took Killeen out OF the box and
gave Mcclure an opportunity 10 play

nine safe ones but they we're NO badly
scattered and he was so well backed
up that All Troy failed To score after
he went In 10 pitch. The only run
made by the visitors was In the first
inning and for this errors by Cathcart
and Blanchan were responsible.
The crowd was somewhat disap-
pointed over the poor showing put up
by the Troy players but at the same
time u derived considerable amuEe
ment from the antics OF the visitors
u Was not No much poor playing by
the All Troys as II was the lack of

there was lamentable lack OF actiy.

a little intelligence and ginger would

two rather pretty double plays which
