VICTORY and DEFEAT
A GOOD GAME AT MT. AIRY and POOR
One AT HOME
Two Games on Monday With SparrOWS
Point Club OF Baltimore

Point CluD OF bdlIlMOfe
Why, of course Pitcher Wege was
in the box and delivered those dinkey
little balls to the Mount Airy batters
and had them guessing at all times
to try to land safe one, but the
Westminster players were all there
when the ball was knocked into the
| field.
Just think of four lightning double
plays made by Ashmore, McGarvey,
Spencer, Wege and Gibson, which
took the life out of the Mt. Airy ball
| players.
Tom Smith had few busy minutes
at his corner and made them all good.
Doherty and Kellog played the best
game for the local club. But for
Westminster, it would be hard to
single out any one player who did not
play fast ball.
If Westminster citizens and visitors
could have seen the great work done
by both the in and outfield of our team
they would have shouted for joy.
The Mt Airy club will play here to-
morrow against our club for the sec
ond game. Let everybody in and
|
bows a royal welcome, and help to
root them to victory, make the audi
ence 1000 or more.
We have good team and they de-
serve your patronage.
Wege or Reitz will be in the box
for the home club, with possibly DOH
erty or Jenkins for Mt. Airy.
