Molesworth and Messenger

Viebahn was very strong, too, and the
Barons had difficulty in solving his de-
livery. But Messengers speed and Moles
worths terrific hitting sent two runs
over. and those were enough. Messenger
scored them both and Molesworth's hit
ting was responsible for Messenger being
in position to score on both occasions.
McGilvray was a star of the first game.
He got a couple of hits, one of which
sent Wordsworth in with the second run
of the first inning, stole third when there
was no chance of hit by Emery or
ELAN, and scored on a f1yout. His field
ing in both games was very fine
The Barons played errorless ball in
both games. AS stated, they had the
Vols outclassed entirely today. But to-
morrow there might be another story.
