| The Italian Athletic club won its sec
ond college team victory of the week at
the Berlin street grounds Saturday aft
ernoon, when the varsity outfit from
Norwich university was forced to accept
a 5 to 4 defeat. Ii was a desultory
contest for the reason that neither team
seemed to infuse any life into the play,
Norwich was represented in the box de-
partment by Murray, who consumed
more time than was necessary in deliv-
ering the ball to the batter. His twirl-
ing was conspicuous only for his irrtat-
ingdispostion to proerasinate. lnvsri-
ably he occupied two or three minutes
in grooming the ball for splitter, but
somehow the spheroid never seemed to
spit appreciably.
Against him was little Tommie To
masi, the Spaulding high recruit, who
pitched and won his first game for the
|. A. G. Thomas was plainly at sea
sometimes, but his work In the box was
n revelation just the same. and he will
likely be used again. With Williams,
the Dartmouth freshman at third, Clari
at first and Manager Calcagni on the
bench for the day, the Italian intield pre-
sented something of new complexion
and the combination worked we'll There
were a few spectacular plays, but the
collegians from Mortified never seemed
to be dangerously near victory and so
the locals were content to keep drift
ing with tide that finally bore them
home with the bacon.
Jack Clari started the scoring in the
second, when he poled out triple to
deep left. Bottigi succumbed to an in
field roller, but Giacamuzzi scored the
Laconia lad ON single to right. Jim
mic was afterwards caught off third,
after gaining second on pass to Fow
lie. The latter made the second tally
which landed him on second and To-
masi''s bingle, The Italians punched
three safe ones in the third, when Will
liams, after singing to center, scored on
Bottigi's fair hit to the same pasture.
With the score 4 to 3 in favor of the
cadets, Jack David basted out ho-
mer to right in the seventh. Witt was
an easy out to Mahard, but Williams
got a life on Shepard's bungie and pres
emily registered on Clari's double to cen
ter. Bottigi was an easy out to pitch
er and Giacamuzzi was an easy out,
but the game was already won.
Norwich postponed its scoring entry
till the fourth, when Thompson drew
pass, stole second and went to third on
a wild pitch. Burwell famed, but -Shep-
ard walked and it was on an attempted
double steal that Thompson counted, al.
though Shepard was captured between
first and second. The three remaining |
runs came in the sixth, through wild |
throw by Williams. Mahard hit safely |
and was sacrificed to second on Nun !

and Burwell sent each man along a peg |
by scratch single. Shepard pushed

pickup, but heaved the ball clean over !
Fowlie's head, allowing Mahard and
Thompson to score. Burwell came in |
for the fourth and last tally on Ander
sons single, but Shepard was caught |
at the plate on a long throw from right /
field. Ayers was out when he was hit |
at the plate by his own batted fair
ball. Norwich had men on bases in
both the seventh and eighth, but rapid
fire base throwing prevented anymore
