After Game with Pittsfeld
The directors of the Bennington
baseball association decided last
evening to disband the team for the
season. 1t was the original inten-
ton to play ball from the Saturday
before Memorial day to Labor day,
but all the other clubs which origi-
nally composed the Northern Tr.
State league have gone to the wall
and it has been difficult to secure
either home or out of town games.
Then, again, the finances were get
ting low and the directors believed
it best to take the safe end of the
situation instead OF risking another
week of baseball.
Like all ball teams, the Huckle-
berry boys of 1913 have had their
days of JOY and gloom. They have
received, perhaps, little more at
tention from the knockers than the
teams of previous seasons but now
that the game has been laid on the
shelf for another year and the fans
have chance TO think things over
il will have 10 be conceded that Man
ager Morrissey has given Bennington
a whole lot of good base ball. The
team played 46 games and won 81, a
record that is good enough for any
club in the bush league country. The
games have been played without dis
cord, the management has beel-
clean in every respect and the season
has provided the people of Benning-
ton with much enjoyment that they
could not otherwise have obtained
Manager Morrissey and the directors
have had their troubles but they
have the satisfaction of knowing that
they have pulled through success
full season in spite of difficulties. The
record of games is as follows:
