SO-CALLED LOGANS
PLAYED TO A TIE
The Montpelier Aggregation
Had Three Montpelier
Players

frlgid waves Walted across lntefclIY
park Saturday afternoon with the tenn
perature ranging decidedly below normal
did not depress nor discourage the Barre
Athletics and the Logan Squares OF
Montpelier from making the second game
of their series the most stimulating and
exciting that has been rehearsed at the
park this season. BY mutual agree
ment the curtain was drawn over the
scene at the conclusion of the eleventh
inning, with an equalized score, to 2.
On account OF the unfavorable reports
from the weather bureau but slight
attendance scattered their meagre mum
bers through the stands.
1t was not the Logan Squares of Mont
pelier that opposed the Barre Athletics
but the best obtainable aggregation OF
diamond stars within reach of Mont
pelier. Three Montpelier lads, Pape,
Bartlett and Cullen, were negligible
quantities when interspersed on the field
among brilliant array of diamond tai
ent brought together by "Punch" Daley,
the old Northern league manager. The
most imposing parsonage Of this as
semblage was Case" Patten, the old
time major Lacquer, who has been sum
mering at Westport, n. y. Patten was
no enigma to the Barre batsmen, who
abused his delivery more than the score
sheet warrants. Patten managed TO get
through the game with but four hits
scratched up against him. Montpelier
had Maiden, the Vermont player, at sec
ond; Dixie, the Brown and Brattleboro
player, in right field; Fowlie, Barre
lad, at the backstop work; Lyons, short
stop and jacques, first baSeman.
On the crippled Barre team, Williams
and Feeley, the former Graniteville bat
terry, We're the most noteworthy players.
Williams was in excellent form and
twirled a game deserving Of victory. He
allowed but five hits, none when in the
danger zone. His speed and curves hoist
ed is batters to the strike ont column.
Williams apparent victory was spoiled
by Mute, the Barre shortstop, in the
ninth inning, when he heaved wide to
first base in an effort to negotiate
double play. This blunder allowed
Jacques to score and even the score.
The Barre team registered in the sixth
en-. j. Brown laid down a bunt. Pat
ten went after the ball and threw wild
to first, Peduzzi made home and Brown
third. According to ground rules, the
base runners were ordered back a base.
Then Feeley crossed Patten and laid
down a bunt Feeley was credited with
a Cincinnati base hit and Peduzzi scored
when Jacques tried to throw him out at
home, John Brown then came racing
down third base line like mailman and
crossed the plate safely while Patten
was delivering the BALL
In the latter part Of the inmng, Mont
pelier tailed for the first time. Bart
lett was passed. Feeley tried to catch
him mapping at first. He threw wild
and Bartlett went to second. Lyons
struck out. Bartlett made third on a
passed ball. Patten singled to center
md Bartlett scored. Fowlie sacrificed
Patten to second, but Jacques struck
)ut
In the ninth, Mute slipped up and al
owed Montpelier to register the tying
-un. With one out, Mute fumbled
Jacques dnfeld rap. Pape poked lucky |
single into right field N. Brown al
most nipped him at second by fast field |
ng. Laird, who had replaced Cullen
EARLIER in the game, knocked sharp one
o Stuart Stuart relayed to Mute for |
/ double play. Pape was forced at sec
md Mute had ample time to throw
Iaird out at first. The ball ploughed
through the dirt and passed j. Brown,
flowing Jacques to score. Maiden flied
tut to Feeley.
During the the next two innings Meth
r team explored the base paths deep
nough to score. The score:
