Stralne's Error Gives SDilhfkId
Victory, One to Nothing.
BATTLE ROYAL BETWEEN PITCHERS
Donald Bryan, Fast Newport News
Catcher, Scores Only Run for Visi-
Sors-Cumming and Straine Both
In Fine Form.

Straine's wild throw in endeavorins
to cut Bryan off at second base gave
Smithfield the game over Hampton on
New Park diamond yesterday in one
of the fastest exhibitions seen here
in many seasons. After nine hard
fought sessions the game wen; 10
the "Hamtown" men by the score OF
Z to 0.
It was simply a pitchers battle,
with the argument slightly in favor
of Straine. who pitched great bal
and would have won the game but
fer the bad judgment in throwing to
second in the second inning, when
two men were down. Donald Bryan,
! the crack catcher of the North En-
team. Newport News. was behind the
bat for the visitors and he played a
great game, bringing in the only run
of the contest. Bryan singled, stole
second and came home on the wild
THROW by the Hampton twirler. Al
ter his neither team had a look in
for a run, although on two occasions
Hampton got a man around TO third
sack. 1t was snappy work in the
fielding, while the bases were cover
ed to perfection by both teams. Bur
bank, Strayer and Buchanan did fine
work for Hampton, while Cunning
ham showed I'D splendidly at first.
Straine was in good form. He al
lowed the visitors only two hits;
did not permit Smithfield man to
walk and struck out ten of them.
Cumming. a former twirler on the
Portsouth league nine. was on the
firing line for Smithfield. He did
splendid work. Only enc good, safe
hit was made off his delivery. He al
first and struck cut six Cumming

The local Young Women's Christian as
ISOLATION will open its work next month to
meet an unprecedented demand. That this
demand has been aroused by the completion
OF the new building and it's splendid equip
ment to handle the class work, there can
be no doubt. Because of the Ak-Sar-Ben
festivities, the opening has been postponed
from the week Of October 4 to thai of
October II. The formal fall opening recep-
ton will be held Monday evening, October
H. This and the New Years reception are
the two pretentious social affairs Of the
year in the association. The entire secre-
tarial staff, now numbering twelve, has
commenced work and everything will be in
readiness when the classes open. The
gymnasium under the direction of Miss
Florence ID. Alden promises to nave the
largest attendance in the history of the
association. 1t is expected that about 500
women will be registered when the classes
open. This demand will necessitate early
registration by all wishing to take the
gymnasium work. The school of domestic
science under direction of Miss Mary b.
MCGOWAN and the school Of domestic arts
under direction of Miss Mary Burnside
have also attracted a large registration.
