Local High SehoeI Boys
Beat CoIly 10 to I.
Heavy Hitting Chief Feature 'l
OF Good Game.
Teams Well Matched But Local
Boys Prove Strongest at Bat.

In a game characterized chiefly by
heavy hitting, Winthrop High school yes
terday defeated Cony High by a score of
10 to Z. The game was close and exciting.
The teams were evenly matched save that
the home lads had little the better of
the hitting.
Winthrop did not score in the first in
ming, but Cony started in by running in
two scores. Winthrop scored one in the
second after Dickson had famed the first
two men who faced him. Cony added an
other to her credit in the third, while
the locals went out in one, two, three
order.
With the score 8 to 1.-against them,
Winthrop started in the fourth with a
clean hit by Wood, who promptly stole
second. Fortier followed with 2 single
and Osborne drew pass. Norcross hit a
scratch which scored Wood, and Heon
stung the leather for two bases, scoring
Fcrtier and Osborne, while Norcross was
caught at the plate. Smith got life at
grst through slow fielding, and French's
single scored Heon and Smith. Bell and
Maxwell hit into the diamond and were
thrown out. Five scores were netted dur
ing this inning, giving the local lads a
lead of to 8.
Meader replaced Dickson in the box
during this inning and pitched the re-
mainder of the game. Cony was unable
to do anything until the fifth, when both
teams added one to their tally. Cony did
not see first in the sixth, but French
opened this inning for Winthrop with a
scorching two-bagger. He scored on Max
wells hit to right, which was fielded in
season to catch Maxwell at first.
The seventh did not add to the score on
either side, though both teams had men
or bases. Cony looked dangerous in the
eighth, when three successive errors and
timely hit gave her three scores. Then
Douglas popped a fly to the pitcher and
ended the inning. Winthrop added one
in this inning and the visitors did not
score in the ninth. The summary:
