Hall baseball team broke the
ice for the season at West Side Park.
Jersey City, yesterday afternoon. The
"Surhurbankn took a dip in the
Whitewash bucket to the tune of 20,
but all credit is due the South Orange
boys for holding the Worcester lads to
such a score. The boys from old Sc
tonia showed plenty of pepper in the
field and gave their boxman Jache,
who did the sharp shooting, superb
support most of the time, but they were
lost when they tried to pepper South
paw HaEan's portside slants one
dainty double being the total of swats
accumulated by the losing nine.
1t was a contest of southpaws, and
from the start 1t became evident that
1t, would be a pitchers battle. The
Seton Hall boys showed a woeful lack
OF batting practise. Regan's chief Of
fering was drop that took dive that
rivalled Anette kellermans Australian
splash, and whenever the vanquished
smitesmiths did manage to touch the
ball it was generally for weak splash
that found it's Waterloo in the out
stretched digits of some eager infielder
who speedily relayed it to the putout
station.
Jache, the South Orange slabartist,
pitched steady game. He had the
Worcester collegians on his hip most
OF the time, and turned nine would-be
>Wallopers back by the whit route. Re-
IEan went him one better, however, and
famed ten men. Both of the pitchers
showed remarkable control for left
handlers, Regan issuing two transpor-
tation tickets and hitting two bats
men, while Jache gave as many bases
on balls and hit one of the men who
faced him.
Jache, after tanning two men in the
opening encounter, was getting along
swinnmingly until the fifth, when he
struck something that reminded him of
the Gulf Stream" and he got in hot
water. Regan had died by way of the
keystone sack to first when Mahoney
shot liner past third and was half
way to second before Hillock, who was
ioaiins, woke up, and the runner was
perched safely on sack No. when the
smoke cleared away. Whalen then
came to the front with a safety to
right, sending Mahoney across the
counter" for the first run of the game

ones, and Whalen stole third on wild
pitch. Second Baseman Jones, who was
in the game for the Holy Cross team
with both feet and had three safeties
TO his credit, then came along with a
hot rap to short, and Whalen slid over
the plate before Burchells throw,
though the latter worked hard to get
him. The inning ended when j Craig
fouled to Meegan after Burns had
taken three healthy swings cat. the
ozone.
Outside of the second round the Seton
Hall players had few chances to score
In that round Kinney, with one man
down, raped out a two-sacker to right
and stole third, but he was left strand
ed when the next batsmane fatfed to
follow suit.
In the ninth the Seton Hall boys
made a stand and fought hard for the
game. Meegan went to bat for Cotton
and famed. Regan then wobbled for
an instant and bruised the bark on one
of Burchells legs the latter going to
first. Hillock waited and walked. but
the inning ended when Burns scared
to right and Meegan's foul found a
resting place in Cawley's outstretched
NIT.
Manager Carlin felt confident that his
team would secure revenge when the
South Orangeites meet the Holy Cross
nine at Worcester next month.
