HslIoweII 9; Waterville S.

HalIoweI g; WaterviIie 5.
Hallowell High opened its home season,
Saturday, with victory over Water
vile High. The game was slow and at
times loose play prevailed. Nevertheless
it was interesting to watch. This is
Halowells fourth league game, two of
which have been won and two lost.
The WaterviIlites arrived in town con-
fident of victory over our boys. but
smiles quickly faded from their faces
when five runs came across the pan in
the first inning. For Waterville, Cap
tain Simpson played a fine game and his
base running was feature. Blair WELD
ed the willow for three pretty hitss Rack
life started the game for Waterville but
was yanked ont of the box in the second.
Dameran, who succeeded him, was more
effective
For Hallowell, Paine pitched a good
game and was accorded fine support in
the pinches. Twice he famed man
when the bases We're fun, thus pulling
himself out of two bad holes. NJ Niles
made the star play of the game in the
sixth inning. Wallace knocked up a fly
which was out of the reach of both Sands
and Piekard Sands made a try for the
ball and just missed it. Everybody
thought the fly lost, but the little figure
of Niles was seen running after the ball
and before it landed he made stab ana
caught it. This brought forth a hearty
round of applause from the spectators.
Moore and Gray We're both absent from
the game on account OF sickness, but
their positions We're ably filed by Har-
vey and Carey. The latter put up rare
on first pfelxar1 ma in
his new position in left field and will
probably be a fixture there. Sands played
good game at third, digging out some
hard grounders. Doc Niles, our pucky
little catcher, put up his usual hne
game.
