Riddle continues to put up good game
at the initial sack for Peck. Should this
lad locate his batting eye he would rank
among the best in the city.
Martin caught a good game for Ninth
Wednesday. He was worked pretty hard
throughout the contest Symanoskie being
wild. The pitcher passed seven men.
AS soon as one of the outelders Injuries
himself by chasing a ball the league will
have that bad portion of center field put
into the pink OF condition.
Sunny Coleman played his first game
with the Bethany team Tuesday and put
up a good game at third. He failed to
get hit, but had plenty of company.
At the present writing the cork has been
pulled enough to postpone twelve con-
tests. We will have to get the Wright
brothers to take voyage and inspect
this.
Frank Stecher is putting up a good
game in left for Ninth. Frank is per
forming some nifty work with the willow
this season and has vet to make his first
error. Very few get by this boy.
Probably a record-hreaking crowd will
turn out next Tuesday and Thursday

Miles put up a good performa nee at sec

position in the field. He is clouting with
regularity of late.
Jimmy Hughes had a rough dav of it
Wednesday. He would be investing his
kaIe in a good manner should he pur-
by foul tips several times and on one oc-
casion he was forced to retire for several
moments.

Hamlne put up a good exhibition
Wednesday against the Ninth Street ag-
gregation. The run-in Manager Holmes
days ago has. If anything. bettered the
team. Lynham's place behind the bat is
an easy proposition for Geibel to take
care Of and Fries can play rings around
the big bov at the keystone corner. as
well as outbat him.
Manager Stokes has signed two good
men in Charlie Duean and Harmon Lin
thicum. Dugan played pretty strong

Cornell College and will soon be In line
with the Ninth Streeters. He performed
on both teams at the university. and is
reported to have played first-class ball.
The game that he put up for the Ninth
team In the latter part of last season
can easily be remembered. He played
in eight games and batted .346 He
had a fielding average of $50, making
but single misplay. Welcome home!
Both Powell and Ellis deserve lots of
credit for their pitching Tuesday The
contest that Ellis twirled will win nine
times out of ten. but the work of his
opponent with the same sort of fielding
behind him will win ten out of ten. But
four of the Baptists reached nrst and
but one of this number got as far as
second. Powell passed three and Cramp-
ton was safe when Goucher dropped his
fly after a hard rum Powell famed nine
and Ellis eight.

had three new men. Coleman on short.
Goodman and Buckley twired and

Charley Broome will be out OF the game

SPLIT the flesh. He was assisted to the
clubhouse and from there he was taken
to the Casualty Hospital. where he re-

When warm weather sets in and Syman-

be a hard proposition to beat. PUCK

That battle Tuesday in which Bethany
was shut out by the Peck Memorial squad
without either a hit or a run has been the
subject of much comment In more than
one manner. A majority OF the fans were
