The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1912-06-10
Defeated St. MiChaeIs College,
4 to 2, on Goddard Campus
A BIG CROWD WAS PRESENT
Gabelloni and Davidson Did the Twirling
for the Locals, While Dover Did the
Similar Stunt for the Collegians
From Winooski.

st. Michaels college lowered its col
ors to the Barre Athletic club at Cod
dard campus Saturday afternoon, when
the two teams went the distance, with
the locals winning, 4 to 2. The game
had always the element of uncertainty,
and whatever it lacked in the way OF
exciting situations and brilliant plays,
its outcome had the redeeming quality
of closeness. Both bleachers were crowd
ell and leaning over the ropes OF the
arena were many who preferred to wit
hess the game i'll a posture that would
permit more active demonstrations of en-
thusiasm. The early innings of the con-
test witnessed the return of NIP" Cab
elloni to the pastime and his unheralded
advent on the field before the game be-
gan caused more than one fan to wonder
ii Nip could show his last seasons form.
Gabelloni started the twirling for the
locals and opposed to him was Dover,
whose strong right arm has pitched
many st. Michael's team to victory in
days and seasons gone by. Dover famed
fourteen men in the course OF the game
and with more consistent catcher than
Sennett in the first four innings, his
record might have been augmented.
Rrother Nip allowed four hits in the
three innings that he tenanted the box,
but showed occasional signs of his old
time prowess. Tommie Davidson passed
'em over for the home boys after the
third and for seven innings the collegians
could do no better than make second.
Davidson allowed one hit Sennett, who
started the catching for st. Michael's,
grew rapidly worse as the innings went
L.. n..l -. h.. I4al
to the bench. Mahar supplanting him
on the firing line. The latter's place in
the right pasture was occupied there
after by Tarbell, st. Michaefs pitching
mainstay and brother Of the copper
eolored twirler that accompanied the
same outfit to Barre last year.
st. Michael's two counters came in the
third, when with two men down, Char
bonneau drew free one and went to
third on McGraw's single through sec
ond. Both registered at the fourth sta |
tion on line drive to center, which |
netted the author, Stewart, just one bag. |
Dover repudiated the menaeing attitude |
OF his comrades by poking an easy
grounder to Bill Stuart at second. In |
the fourth inning, the invaders gained |
a distant look at the plate when Houle |
walked and stole second; but the three
succeeding men We're out almost in the |
twinkling of an eye. Houle and Mahar
wormed their way to second at two 9th |
er periods in the game, but never did |
they come near scoring.
Vigorous applications of the essence |
of ash and other complications were re- |
sponsible for the shower of Barre runs !
that spattered the plate in the third in I
ing. Fresh from their harvest of two /
runs in the first half, the visitors trot |
ted confidently to the respective cor
ners of the field with visions, perhaps, OF |
2 to 0 score. With two men down.
Stuart got life on McGraw's error and /
Tailed when w. Johnston placed the ball |
over the fence. Clean singles by Taplin
and Wright, stolen bases by the lat
ter, and weird miscues contributed to
the slaughter that left the college lads
in the lureh and the locals ahead by
comfortable margin. Fresh evidence
of Sennett's inability to hold his pitch
err presented itself during the round
and it was in the next that he was
chased away to the bench.
Only once, in the eighth, did the Ath-
letics have chance to increase their
collection. Fowlie was an easy out
when he shot roller to Callaghan. but
davidson collided with the ball for a
double, although he could not score from
second on Nute's single. The latter went
down on the throw and both occupants
of the two sacks were compelled to
watch Stuart fly to field and Bin John
ston life an easy foul to catcher The
score:
