(By s. T.. Goddcn.)

That Hollingsworth family, or at
least that portion of 1t with the Me-
wark team, gave the Diggers an awful
battle yesterday at the patch in both
games of doubleheader. Neither con-
test was won until the last or rather
until Digger wallop sent a runner
over In the first game and until Gou-
lait had retired Newark in the sec
ond.
The Hollingsworths were there. No
mistake about It, Ray worked In the
second game and Charles In the first.
The former was perhaps more tf-
fective than the latter but even at
that both did stellar work and their
pals. the pepper boys, did lot of
valiant service behind them.
Joe Lewis. he over whom hoodoo
seems to hang of late, worked in the
FIRST game for our side and I'm the
second Snooze Goulah was the fipper
Joe was steady as clockwork most or
the way. A lucky hop taken by Ken
dalls hard smash to right in the
eighth inning put the callers on a
parity with the locals and 1t remained
for Bill Johnstone to do the finishing
work on a ninth inning rally. Bril-
liant fielding feats marked the play of
both teams.
First Game.
Dlggers got one in the first inning
on Charles Hollngsworth. But It was
not the pitchers fault as Myers kick
of Hummel's roller let the Digger get
on. He went to third on Reilly's single
and then Honus and Emmett worked
the double steal, Hummel counting.
Meehan was passed but Johnstone
failed to keep the rally going.
Ayette walked and stole second in
the next but died there. In the third
Epler led off with a safety to center
and went to third when Hummel beat
out his roller. Reilly Ambled and the
bricks were fuu.
Meehan hit Coney whose flip to
Anderson forced Epler and Johnstone
breezed while Ayette fouled out to
Anderson. This to show just how tight
that Charley Hollingsworth was.
In the fourth the old army game
went through. Weller got a pass and
Lewis sacrificed Colligan's out put
Weller on third and he scored
when Epler beat out one to Riehl
Hollingsworth failed to cover the bag
on this play or there might have
been chance to get Gloomy Gus.
.Diggers had no difficulty getting
runners on--the trouble was in getting
them to the destination They had
them on In every frame but Hollings-
nd
on the old lid and each time the stuff
was off.
In the first three innings the first
Newark swat boy reached first. But
Joe Lewis proved an enigma In those
minutes. In the fifth and sixth there
were Molders ready to count but Lewis
again steered out of nouble Then
came the joy-removing eighth but as
after events proved the eighth merely
kept up the interest until the final

score.
1T was Meehan and tombstone who
executed that ninth inning rally un-
aided by fan bugs who yelled lusty
encouragement, Meehan beat out a
drive that Conley managed to knock
down, close to third base. The little
fellow stole second, and scored when
Bill tombstone raped one into the left
field corner of the yard, the game win,
