which the. Cigarmakers have held
since the opening of the season. The
same feeling s prevalent throughout
the other towns in the circuit with

year the club trailed along at the
bottom and was walloped almost daily
by every other club in the league.
This year Billy Doyle has built a
great team. He has. mad good pitchers
and battcrs who are getting the hits
when they are needed 1t has been
an uphill fight for the past two weeks
and half for Portsmouth to climb
from the cellar to the top.
Over at Lima the fans must now
realize that the Cigarmakers are play
ing In some of the luck their oppon-
ents did during the early days when
Lima walked away with game after
game that was not deserved. 1t all
evens up In season. Lancaster is
