the former won by a score Of u to 8.
Manager Abrahams Of the Acad-
emy surprised the fans by having
Hook Glenn to go in the box for
his team. The Academy team de-
serves great credit for the game they
put up against the All-Wilmington
team Dutton began to pitch for Van
dever, but was hit hard and Thomp-
son came to the rescue in the third
inning after six runs had been
scored
But after winning one or two the
Academy team got next to Thomp-
son and made a total of twelve runs
off both pitchers. The Academy team
played a fast fielding game having
