shadows legitimate dealing in the staple

Pounds In Weight Also Indication That This FatFng Campaign

Of the league series with Pittsheld,
North Adams and the Jeffersonians
Saturday afternoon to the Schenec-
tady team by a score Of to 2.
Haynes, who was drafted at the last
minute from Burlington to pitch the
game was not in form and was hard
hit by the players from Schenectady.
Haynes had already pitched two hard
games during the week and the
strain and the long ride from up the
state put him out Of shape He had
good control but admitted after the
first inning the curves wouldn't
break"
Bennington hit Bason, the former
Union college boxman, for eight sing
les, Of which Prindle secured three,
bat they were so badly scattered that
only two runs resulted
The "Jeffs' made their hits in
lunches Four came in the third in
ming and helped along by a sacrifice
and an error the Schenectady boys
scored twice. They earned another
run in the fifth and another in the
sixth on straight batting Haynes re
iired the side each time in the last
three innings without a hit In the
second he struck out all three bat
ters.
Leonard scored Bennington's first
run in the opening inning on base
on balls, a steal and Prindles hit to
short center. Haynes reached second
in the second on a hit and steal
Prindle did the same trick in the
fourth but Wheeler was caught at
first putting out the side. Prlndle
was the FIRST man up in the sixth and
hit safely but the following batters
were unable to advance him Muir
tagh, too hit safely to center in the
opening Of the seventh and remained
on first while Bason disposed of three
batters. With one down in the
eighth Crisis hit safely to right but
progressed no farther than the initial
sack. Leonard was first man up in
the eighth and was given free pass
TO first where he tarried while the
side was retired. Bennington hit
enough TO make the game much clos
or but the safe blngles failed to
come when needed The score
