would have won the high-score prize
of $1,000, whereas, when. because of
the game being thrown out owing to

Lew McCarty got into the game in
Brooklyn yesterday and caught Nap
Rucker and Pat Ragon throughout
the contest. With two men on the
bases and two men out in the seventh

While on the topic of the Criterion
Stakes" it might be remarked that
the fans overlooked some beautiful
team work. Kramer and Goullet
were working together, and even
then the poor old champion couldn't
make the boat" Clark, too, was in
