Some y
Chick


Lost in twelfth.
Some swatfest until the last.
York used up two pitchers and
saved the game.
Eighteen hits in twelve innings
seems to be the limit
Every Chick got a hit but not
enough to win.
IT. was a see-saw game that make
bad.
AS usual the Chicks played the bet
ter fielding game.
At York again today.
The boys will arrive home on next
Monday for the wind-up.
While working against us Frost got
four hits.
Well, we can't be expected to win
them all.
Reading has the pennant now pret
ty we'll sewed up, and Trenton, theil
nearest rival, would have to win more
than two-thirds of the remaining
games, while Reading was getting al
even break. to tie up with the Pretzel
men.
When things get going all right
for Lancaster, then something hap
pens. Eddie Hooper was compelled
to Join the hospital list with a sprain
ed ankle But misfortune has itl
bright side also. The shifting aroun,
required the presence Of Chabek il
all the games, and the clever pitchei
did a number OF good stunts with tn
stick.
Bill Clay is the winner Of a gol'
watch in Trenton, where he was voteI
the most popular player on the clul
in a recent contest.
The Lancaster management has de
cided not to transfer any more games
It is believed by York fans tha
their favorites will end the seasol
in the first division. IL is said that
the team does a little better thai
break even in the remaining games
that it will finish at least in fourtl
place.
This has been the "hoodoo" seasoi
for Pitcher Lee Hafford, of Trenton
The big cross-fire thrower has neve
been able to reach his form.
Although Reading will cop" tn
pennant, the title Of hitting champ
belongs to the Tigers Heckert'
bunch is one Of the greatest cloutin
aggregations the Tri-State has eve
known.
Harrisburg fans are interested
the wonderful record the vetera
twirler, Joe Myers, is making thi

class A league next season.

NEW MANAGERS FOR
CHICKS NEXT YEAR

Wilmington will have a new play
ef manager next year
The Wilmington Baseball assocla-
tion officials. if you ask them, Will tell
YOU they haven't given the manager a
thought.
The baseball association hasn't the
slightest kick to make against Pete
Cassidy. They admire him and ike
him but Pete feels that he must quit.
He wanted to quit one month ago but
the association wouldn't let him.
Pete has this year been the victim
of more hard luck than usually comes
to the lot of a manager in fifty years.
And that, more than everything else
accounts for the low position OF the
team.
Thus far no intimation has leaked
out as to who will succeed Pete.
