ANOTHER HOMER FOR BURY

to Bennington yesterday and defeated |
the Huckleberry boys by the close
score of to 2. 1t was a corking |
good game. Bennington out-batted |
the college boys and made but two !
errors, One Of the misplays, however
was responsible for the visitors win
ming run and there were several in
stances in which poor Judgment on
the part of Bennington put the team
lin bad"
Richfeld Springs used left-hand-
ed pitcher, Reagan, who was rather
erratic as most southpaw twirlers are
apt to be, but he had a lightning
quick throw to first base with which
he caught three base runners. Ben
nington hit Mr.. Reagan for two sin
giles, three two-baggers, one triple and
a home run, combination that
should have won almost any game but
which was not put together in the
1 right shape to turn the trick yester
day.
Bennington had McInery, a South
Adams and Amherst college pitcher,
in the box and he surely served up
good article. For five innings the
college students walked to the plate
and retired to the bench with no runs
aud only one hit In the same period
of time Bennington had scored two
runs, one when lnglis who was passed
stole second and was driven home
by Drummey's two-bagger and the
other on Burrington's home run drive
to right center In the seventh McIn
erny made an error OF judgment
which permitted Richfield Springs to
score the run that won the game
Mclnerny made the mistake of at
tempting to catch runner going
TO second with the result that two
men were safe Reagan who was
Ipassed to first was advanced to
hit. The next man up sent
a long fly to lnglis in right field which
was returned to the plate on one OF
the truest throws seen on the field
this year. The ball came on the first
bound straight into Burrington's init
but in tagging the runner coming 10
