The Suburban League and Interclub
teams will play one of their series of
games at Oriole Park today.
Towson will play their final game of
the season with the Swimming Club on
the grounds of the latter at Dundalk,
Saturday, September 25.
There's trite saying that it's a
long road that has no turning. This
axiom fits exactly the case of the High
landers and the Parkers. For two years
the Highlanders have been travelling
this lane, with nary peep at the bars
at its end. Well, the end came in sight
Monday afternoon, when the Parkers
were dumped over the barrier to the
tune of 6 to l, Naturally, and likewise
asa. .matter-of- course, MAC" was fright
ened to trapped frazzle when he saw
the classy maneuvers of the local bunch.
When the Jeniler clan found how easy it
was, it all seemed as natural as dande-
lions in spring. MACS" crowd was as
silent as bunch of kids from deaf
and dumb asylum. which was taken
advantage of by the Jenifer family, who
discovered that the time to make noise
that'll be heard is when the rest of the
fellows are quiet.
To ''Adonis'' Hart was assigned the
task of subduing the Parkers. "Jawn"
Rowe was pitted against Hart, and as
"Ed' was feeling pretty fit "Jawn" had
to take the losing end. Rowe was un-
steady, issuing seven passes, enough to
take the starch out of his mates.
In the third, with two gone and every
station occupied, "Lou" Uhl smashed
a short fly to right field which, SO times
out of hundred, would have counted
for single. Spencer put on steam and
as the ball was about to touch earth
Johnnie extended his left mitt and
raked it in like man pulling his win
nings in at poker seance. Bruff in left
and Parks in center also distinguished
themselves by making brilliant catches,
the former pulling the ball off the wire.
The Parkers' lone run came in the
third chapter. Rowe poked bounder
to Melville at short; Freddy" toyed with
the pellet and then flung wide to ''Jack, !"
the ball rolling under ''Tom'' Offutt' s
machine, and "Jawn' continued to
third. "Dick" Bennett laced out a
three-sacker to right field fence, the
ball bounding through the wire, but by
quick return "Dick" was held at third
Uhl, Mckenzie and Crocker were bowled
over by the infield in easy fashion. In
all the rest of the innings runs were as
scarce as Hottentots in Iceville- -by-the-
Pole.
Rogers started the festivities with a
slam. bang drive to right for triple,
but it was so much muscle and leg-work
for naught, as he was pinched by
Tommy Grason when he attempted
to annex the dish on squeeze. Rowe
and Bennett were disposed of in iiffy
by Bruff and j. Grason.
The man with the Black Book got
busy with his pencil in the run column
in the third. When Rely was thrown
out, Rogers to Mckenzie, "Mugsy"
gave vent to varied assortment of en-
phatic remarks, also SIN other things.
]. Grason shot single through short
and was helped to third by Bruff, who
singled along left foul line. Spencer
chopped to "Jawn," who heaved wildly
to first. Grason and Bruff scoring. The
manner in which "Jawn" tossed his
| mitt to the ground was ocular demon
stration to the holiday crowd that he
regarded himself as 81 varieties of a
pin head. Melville sacrificed Spencer
to the dish with long fly to Bennett.
The Highlanders padlocked the game
in the fourth. Donaldson opened with
a dandy punch over third. Rowe was
unsteady and passed Hart In an at
tempt to retrieve his bad work Rowe
threw wildly to second to catch Donald
son mapping, the ball rolling to McFee
in centre. The black-haired chap helped
the good work along by similar toss
to the plate, "Tom" and "Ed' regis
tering.
Bruff's single and Melville's double
gave the Highlanders their final run in
the seventh.
The score:
