AguiD Huzelton.

Well, with this weeks issue we
are again compelled to write the
fourth installment Of our base ball
funeral Grafton. Those Hazelton
chaps have been monkeying around
here again. That accounts for it..
And it's a good deal like writing our
own funeral. too. for it lay at one
time in the writer's hands to win
the game.
Probably never again will this
team compete in game which
abounded in such startling plays and
mis-plays. All through the nine in
nings double plays. quick fielding
and exhibitions such as would make
the hearts of all baseball fans glad
were in evidence. Incidentally, too,
the writer must have something
coming from the bunch up the line
for it was our own undivided tumble
OF line drive that saved them
from a shut.out. We had gone
through the entire nine innings with
the long end of two-to o-nothinp
score. with the exception Of retiring
the last man in the ninth inning.
Then. with Thompson on third base,
Hanson drove to right field and
Streeter fumbled, allowing Thomp-
son to score and save his team
shut-out. Even then. with Linton
still in the lead. Suer hit weak one
to Helmeke at second and what ap-
peared to be sure put-out was
changed to tie-score when Helmeke
fumbled. To make the finish as
Illuminating as possible Harry Petrie
failed TO handle an easy one and
Fischer. our catcher. let one get by
him and HaZelton had four scores.
From the start of the game it was
easily to be seen that battle royal
was in progress. Linton managed
to score once in the first when Hell
meke got hit. stole second and Har-
ry Petrie hit for two bases. HeImeke
scoring. Then in the eighth Hell
meke was swatted by the pitcher and
scored on a pair Of errors and sto-
len base.
Hazelton plugged along inning af-
ter inning without a score. In fact,
in the first three innings nine men
were retired in order. Even after
that they were never dangerous un-
til the ninth. Paul Kurtz. first up.
singled and Thompson walked.
Kurtz got to third when Batter was
thrown out at first. kurtz got
caught between bases and was nailed.
Then with two down in the last of
the ninth and Thompson on third
came the awful tale of woe. Han
son, for the first time in this years
series hit a ball out of the diamond.
Streeter made run for it and got
the ball squarely in his hands but
dropped it. Thompson had scored.
Sauer then hit to Helmeke, who
fumbled. Sherman hit to Petrie,
who fumbled. Then Fischer missed

one, totalling four for the visitors.
The first notable feat Of the game
was the retiring. in order. of nine
Hazelton PLAYERS in three innings,
only two Of them going by the srike-
out route. Then Charlie Paulson.
unassiated. pulled off double play
by catching line drive and touching
q runner leading off first. In the
ninth inning with q man on first and
another on second, Sites hit 10 Pc
trie. Petrie threw to second, fore
ing Roop there and Sauer attempted
to score. Helmeke returned the ball
to the catcher and Sauer was nailed
ten feet from the plate. Here real
argument arose. The umpire who
covered second got interested in the
play at hone and failed to let the
play at second sink in to his think
tank. He proclaimed the man on
second safe for numerous and sundry
reasons. His first reason was that
Helmeke had dropped the ball. At
ter being convinced that Helmeke
had thrown the ball home instead
of dropping it. some Of the Hazclton
players came to his assistance with
the statement that HeImeke had
not touched second. Anyway the
game was stopped right there and a
ten-minntes' talkfest resulted in the
man being called out at second. Ha-
zelton pulled off a double in the sew
enth when Temple waa forced to
third and Lynn got lost between
first and second, failing to reach
there before the ball had been sent
on from third.
Taking the game all the way
through. it may be easily seen that
Shenkenberger was getting iron-cIad
support until the fatal ninth, for up
to that time only four strike
outs were recorded and Stan
ley Kurtz had drawn three of them.
But Shenkie was pitching the game
Of his life just the same, for he had
only one lone hit up to that
time, too. As it was. HazeIton only
secured two hits. Linton drew
down three singles and double for
their share. Oh, yes. before we for
get it. we might mention that Han
son. the Hazelton twirler. was
forced to hit up such pace that he
withdrew in favor of Thompson in
the sixth inning. Shenk struck out
five. Hanson ten and Thompson two.
Hazelton was there in force to see
their braves turn a supposed defeat
into victory and they came to bat
in the roofing end of the
game. One lady rooter in particu-
lar would be worth her weight in
gold as q barker for a side show with
some circus.
The Record is unable to provide the
box score for this game because of
the fact that the score keeper be-.
came SO interested in the plays that
he failed to record the manner in
which they made.

MONTPELIER VOTERS
REFUSE SPECIAL TAX
Declined to Purchase Auto Truck for
Street Department and to Make
Extended Repairs on Streets.

After Mayor Estee had explained the
Montpelier city councils reasons for ask
ing for a special tax of 50 cents on the
dollar, which were, to repair the streets,
purchase an auto truck for the street
department and make repairs at Hub
bard brook, the Montpelier voters in
special meeting last night made short
work in refusing the request and then
adjourned. A provisional order had been
put in for the auto truck.
Following Mayor Estee's presentation
of the case, A. j. Sibley moved that
a special tax of % cents be levied, sec
onded by John II. Senter.
George Blanchard was tie first to OPP
pose the special tax, saying in part:
"Why should this city, which main

money previously allotted, be so fast
