runs scored by the youngsters came in the
last three innings. While Mathewson and
Ames were on the mound for the veterans
the recruits were almost helpless. denting
the ball only twice in six innings.

Cy Forsythe, first baseman for the Colts
was the hitting and fielding demon. His
eighth inning home run, a mighty clout
that rolled clear TO the fence, brought the
Colts up from behind and gave them lead
that the veterans were unable to cut down.
A triple from his bat was also of material

clohtes on, but their hits were not as time
