SPORTING NOTES.

Joseph Moore, the former st. Johns.
bury academy and Goddard star, is
again covering center field for the Bret
ton Woods team in the White noun
tains. Moore entered Colby college last
fall and held a regular position on the
baseball team the past spring,
Brignolia, the youngster with the
Brockton club, is performing in very
creditable manner. He is considered one
of the best pitchers on the Brockton
staff. The Italian A. c. of this city
was negotiating for his services. but at
the eleventh hour the Brocton offer was
accepted.
Rivers, the stocky little shortstop
with the Burlington Eagles and the
Western All-Stars when those teams ap-
peared in this city, is now filling in at
left field on the Faybans team. Rivers
has played with that team for the pest
two years. He halls from Burlington.
Amos Mayforth, the university of
Vermont catcher, has changed his berth.
He has left the Brattleboro club aad
wnt to the Northampton team.

STANDING OF THE CLUBS

Saturday he covered every inch of lane
between second and third bases. He ha:
the whip necessary for the proprietor
of that territory.
Lyons, the Hardwick shortstop, is an
old "leaguer" He played last year or
one of the teams in the Montpelier City
league The little fellow is very nimble
and performed creditably both on bases
and in the field.
Jacques, catcher and second batter on
the Hardwick lineup, is not novice at
the game, He was affiliated with Jeffer
sonville for several years. Among the
others on the team that are seeking pen
sions are 0Brien, left fielder, and Mar
rion, right fielder.
1t is said that Hatch has been signed
to play with the Hardwick club for the
remainder of the season. The st. Adams
merchant will follow his calling at home,
daily working the kinks out OF his arm
and hoving into the granite town only
when called on to pitch. While not the
star of former years, Hatch still has
plenty of baseball left in him.
Brown, the Hardwick first baseman, Ia
the same man that covered that cushion
for the Barre A. C. the latter part OF
lost season. Barre made mistake in
not holding him.
Witt has probably the best eye for a
ball of any player on the local team. He
never strikes at ball unless it is placed
to his liking, preferring TO take his base
on balls than to Whit at poor serving.
Saturday he came in for his round of
hits, making three in five times up.

Neighboring Granite City Sent
Out Good Baseball Team
WHICH DEFEATED ITALIANS
Locals Played Poor Game in the Field,
While Weaferi Was Touched Up for
Dozen Safeties-The Score of the
Game Was 9 to 4.

The village Of Hardwick was nearly
depopuateu Saturday afternoon, when
,he rank and file of the Caledonia town
Including many of the fair sex trans
planted themselves on the new /. A. {,
ball park in Barre and witnessed theis
recruits punish the Italian A. G, team by
a score of to 4. As the Hardwick
team have not suffered defeat this year
having won IL games consecutiyely, their
advent into this city was precursor for
an afternoon Of baseball something out
OF the ordinary run afforded the public.
The Hardwiek aggregation came for
ward with lineup of oldtimers and
several youngsters, all in all making
about the most formidable bunch OF ball
tossers that has performed in this city
this year. The winning team stepped a
lively clip all through the course. never
being dangerously approached. The 10
cal lads started rally in the seventh
with three runs, that being the only time
they came within striking distance.
To insure the teams success, the man
ng.m ent of the Hardwiek club sent its
scouts north and when they returned
they had contracted with Hatch of st.
the old Brown university and Northern
league slabster has not participated in
game this year but the Franklin com-
ty mans work Saturday discredited all
the rumors. At times his twi14ing
brought back "reminiscences of the days
when baseball thrived in this section.
He has surprising speed, sharply break
Ing curves, and was always master OF
the gauge TO the plate. In the first five
innings he wasn't scored on. being clipped
for but three safeties. He apparently
let up in the sixth and seventh chap
tiers, but seemed TO regain his proper
stride in the closing two rounds.
Twelve hits were Jared off Weaferi's
delivery. but he could not be censIued
for the nine runs registered by the con-
quering team Stupid playing at the
critical moments by his accessories ae-
counted for the majority OF the visitors
runs. The play of the local team was
insipid and barren of the usual fighting
spirit that characterizes their work. As
a result of its weak defense, they rolled
up total of seven errors. Comolli and
Calcagni being the chief offenders. There
were but few brilliant plays turned in
by the fielders. The work OF Murray at
third base for the visitors stood above
the rest. The former Dean man covered
mis- position with the grace of Lacquer.
He accepted six chances eleanly, one of
his putouts being nearly sensational
This play came in the sixth inning, when
he pulled down an almost Texas Lacquer
from Bottigi's bat while on the run back
into left field. Davidson at short made
clever assist of grounder in the
first inning. On the dead run he scooped
up a ground ball in back of second and
shot it to first in time to get the runner.

The really wonderful catch of the
game came in the second, when Rivers
pulled down Nute's long and high drive
just as it SKINNED the right field trees
and had apparently started for Bugbee
avenue. The wind carried the ball to the
north and Rivers feat was seemingly
impossible. It eliminated in a double,
for the fielding wizard shot it over to
second in time to catch Tongiay.
