BOOSTING THE
BALL RECORDS
Cubs and Giants Get Eighty
Three Bases in Four
Game Series
SCHULTZ GETS FOUR
HOMERS IN TWO GAMES

Baseball records are In demand TO-
day to see whether the four-game
series just closed between the Cubs
and Giants did not establish a new
mark for long distance hitting. There
were eight home runs three triples
and twenty oae doubles clouted out in
the four .san'es, the thirsy-two extra
base hits being good for eighty-three
basesl Mos, Of the doubles we're made
in Saturdays swatfest and many OF
them would have beer triples but for
the rule that limited q hit into the
crowd into two bases. Several of
them. also would have been outs had
the crowd ret hemmed IN the folders.
ScLulte's feoO'd of four bcme runs in
two games has not been equaled for
several GeasCDs.

HOME RUN HIT
WINS FOR DUPONT
Flood Boosts MiIIiOnaireS Pen
nant Chances by SwattinC
Ball Over Fence
CAS- co. SETS FAST
PACE ON LAST LAP

Mike Flood practically cinched du-
Fonts County League pennant chances
/pr the second year when he hit a
omer over the right field fence at
y ront and Union streets in the game
/. With Wilmington Gas Company on
saturday afternoon. The hit gave
+ dupont the game by a to score
and again pushed the Millionaires into
first position.
The sensational finish to a most
brilliant game came in the ninth in
ming after one DUPONT man was down.
Gas Company had tied up the game I'm
their first half of the inning.
Brown opened the half for Gas Com
pany by going out, Shuler 10 Connell
Ballentine and Byron walked. Ballen-
tine was caught by Beatty In an at
tempt to steal third and on McGin-
ley's life Byron went to third Then
the danger broke loose for dupont.
Mannering laced one down to Shuler
who fumbled the pill, but got It 10
Council while Byron was crossing the
pan. BY that time Mannering was
trying for second. Cornell and Bacon
started run down on Mannering and
when Mannering wet sprawling over
Bacon In an attempt to reach the bag,

across the pan with the trying run.
dupont thought Mannering had inter-
fered but Everson said no and the
game went on after the field had been
cleared of the crowd that had col
iected at second. McGonigal went in
to bat for II. Brown, but MannerinR
was left on second when the newcom-
er famed
DUPONT came back in the last half
when things looked mighty bad for
them. Harrington made a bad start
by dropping a saft one into Byron's
NIT. while the clever little second
baseman smiled. Then Flood planted
Browns third bender over the right
field fence The DUPONT team and
rooters awaited Mike at the plate and
carried him on their shoulders from
the field
Charley McDonough, a 17-year-old
youth, who sprung from the st. Eliza
beth's Catholic League team. was
pitted against the veteran Brown In

The best of them have little, If any
thing, on him.
900
Tommy Donough-Charley's big
brother-is as classy a fielder as lit
tie Charlie is a pitcher. The only OBJ
lection we have to Tommy is that he
always wants to damage Mousley's
fence.
900
oliver had one run, two hits and if
teen put out And he broke in only
a short time ago
900
BY the way that Stab family seems
to be heading toward as much fame
as the McDonoughs.
900
No pals. the pennant isn't won yet.
Two more games, you know.
900
Billy Inderlied was there with his
little hit. but that is as far as the
speed boy got.
800
Brookwood will have to stay in the
cellar. But the boys are ball play
ers. There's no discouting that.
900
Wright played up to the handle
again. Maybe Gas Company wouldn't
like to grab him.
900
Algard was out again, but Russell
proved a capable successor.
800
Doc Dolan pitched a fast game
and annexed two bingles, but lost.
900
Griffith should get some satisfaction
out of the knowledge that his team
has been the only one that has faced
dupont to take notice.
800
Pete Oliver and his Brookwood boys
hit Prince Mousley foul with that gold
ball Oh, that such fellowship could
exist alwaysl
900
If Mousley had been genuinely ap-
preciated he would have handed Pete
the game on a gold platter.
800
And maybe he would have burnt
it to Stassfort's if Stab, Oliver, Stein
and Mcguire hadn't been in sight.
900
H-there It is again--Everson had
seen the Mannering- Bacon mix-up at
second there wouldn't have been any
occasion for Flood acting as he did
0-0-0
It can't be denied that DUPONT had
to go some to win
900
The bunch that beats out Gas Com
pany in the end will know they have
been in a fight.
900
That explosive hit, by the way, had
a narrow escape from being only a
double. Had It careened two and
nine-siXteenth inches east by north
east there would have been a funeral
instead of a picnic.
900
Being an extremely modest fellow,
McGonigal famed in the ninth when
hit might have meant the game
for Gas Company. Which illustrates
the proverable truth of the old adage
that when the cards are running right
It is foolish not to tilt the ante before
the draw.
