FIVE DOUBLE PLAYS.
And Some Sensational stops and Catch.
co In the Game Which Brattleboro
Won 5 to 4 from Bellows Falls,

Five fast double plays and some sem
sational stops and catches marked the
game which Bratteboro won to from
Bellows Falls on the home grounds Sat-
urday afternoon before a crowd Of over
900 people Sarcka, southpaw from
Proctor, who has attracted much atten-
tion in Rutland county, was on the fir
ing line for the locals. He gave a good
account of himself although nervous and
a trihe wild, issuing four passes and
hitting two batters. He had eight
strikeouts to his credit and was found
for only six hits. He distinguished him
self by batting safely on each of this
three trips to the plate and two of his
drives were very timely. F. Crowther
made some brilliant stops and Guiheen's
playing was high grade. Jacobs, late of
the Lawrence club of the New England
league, made a good impression at third
base, and connected with the spheroid
for two safetes. The most remarkable
play of the day was made by Loud in
the eighth inning. He was playing deep
in centre field when Guiheen smashed
the ball nearly to the flagpole for a
drive ordinarily good for three bases.
Loud kept running back for the ball and
finally stabbed it with his left hand. The
catch was warmly applauded at the
time, and at the end of the inning when
Loud walked to the players bench.
Brattleboro scored twice in the third
inning on a combination of hits by ia
cobs, Mayforth and Sarcka, errors by
Vance and Ready, and SHELLS long fly
to centre field which gave Sarcka an
opportunity to come home after the ball
was caught. Jacobs was thrown out at
the plate in this inning in trying to
score from second base on Sarcka's hit.
In the seventh hits by Jacobs, Sarcka
and Grow, with the assistance of Sar-
cka's stolen base and an error by Cav
ley, netted three more runs.
Mayforth's wide throw to second when
Ready was on third in the fifth allowed
the Bellows Falls captain to score. In the
eighth the visitors made conditions ex-
citing by scoring three times on four
hits. Donnelly misjudged one drive
which ought to have been caught. and
Grow failed to stop a fast bounding
ball from Keady's bat, so that the vet
eran travelled three bases on a hit that
should have been good for but one base.
In the ninth, when Bellows Falls need
ed but one run to tie the score, the
batsmen were quickly retired in order.

PEPLOSkI THE HERO.
Hold RrattIeboro to Three Hits Tuesday,
keene Winning 3-o-5ad Mess In
the Opening Inning.

pitcher Peploski put the Indian sign
on Brattleboro Tuesday at Island park,
the victory for Keene being by a 81
margin, Not a Brattleboro player reach
ed third base, and but three sale hits
were made off Peploski. He struck out
only four men, and in the first seven
innings had only a single strikeout, but
he was master of the situation at all
times, and when the Bratleboro players
connected with the ball 1t went directly
into the fielders' hands.
Malcolm pitched well enough to win
under ordinary circumstances, but the
break of luck was against him. bad
mess" was made of the game in the
first inning. Eddie Eayers, first up,
drove the ball straight at Donnelly, who
muffed it, Durgin hit to Jacobs, VINO
turned to throw to second, but 2. Crow
Their failed to cover the base and Jacobs
was compelled to throw to first, barely
missing his man. A moment later May
forth pegged wildly to first base and
Eayres scored and Durgin reached third.
Durgin scored on Fish's hit. Keene's
other score was made in the fifth inning.
Ostergren singled. Crook hit grounder
to Smell. who might have touched the
runner for an out, but he tried to get
Ostergren at second, threw wide, and
both men were safe. Then the base
runners pulled off a double steal. Proc
tor hit to Donnelly, who caught the ball
and threw Ostergren out at the plate
when he tried to score from third. Eddie
Eayres brought Crook home with a hit
to right field. In the eighth inning,
Eayres, first up, smashed to right field
for a double, but did not advance beyond
second, as Durgin popped up a foul for
Mayforth and Fish and Donovan famed.
Several good catches were made in
the outtield but the game was largly
devoid of brilliant features. Eayres met
the ball fiercely, but was the only man
on either team who did effective stick
work. Goddard went in as a pinch hit
ter in the last of the eighth and twirled
the last inning for the ISLANDERS.
