'.. Yesterday Afternoon. g.s
The Princeton ball team displayed
old-time form last Sunday and they
sent the Foley aggregation home af-s
ter administering to them a most
thorough and decisive defeat. The
final score was Is to and at no
stage of the game were the locals in
danger. The contest was witnessed
by large gathering of enthusiastic
fans and the proves of the local
ball tossers filled the loyal Princeton
followers of the national pastime
with JOY Fullwiler started the
game for Princeton and pitched
mastery game during the first seven
innings. He was invincible during
the first four rounds and none of the
visitors completed the circuit during
the early stages of the game. r. His
support weakened in the eighth in
ming, and this combined with few
timely drives netted Foley runs in
this inning. Wilkes was called in
from the field to stem the tide and
he displayed great form, banking
the visitors the balance of the fray.
Skahen was behind the bat for
Princeton and was right there at all
stages of the game. n. Ahles was
on the firing line for Foley at the
start, and his offerings were
slammed right back at him in a
manner that was truly disconcerting.
The local swatsmen showed no mercy
and they welded the hickory with
ecat and effect and drove the sphere
to all corners of the lot. Ahles was
finally relieved by F. Nutshell, who,
while hit rather freely at times, fin
ished the game in creditable man
ner. Ben Nutshell was behind the
bat and caught good game.
Foley was the first side at bat and
they were retired in order. Prince
ton started things humming in the
first round and scored three men.
Roos was first up and reached first
on an error, and stole second while
Doane was being retired. Wilkes
was next and connected for sizzling
drive that scored Roos. R. Berg
then leaned his willow on fast one
for two bases and Wilkes reached
third. Mallette was retired on an
intield grounder that scored Wilkes.
Berg reached third when Smith sent
one to the short stop and scored
while Galley connected for a clean
drive. The side was retired before
further damage was done. Both
sides were banked in the second in
ming and Foley was also denied a
score in the third. Princeton, how
ever, practically clinched the game
in the third round by pushing four
more scores over the pan. Doane,
Who was first up, was retired and
Wilkes who was next reached first on
an error and stole second. Berg ar
rived at the initial sack after the
pitcher fumbled the ball. Mallette
drove one to the outer gardens that
scored Wilkes. and Berg and NAL
lette completed the circuit when
Smith bumped one for two bases.
Galley connected again and Smith
scored, after which the side was
retired. Foley was again blanked in
the fourth inning, although for a
time it looked very much as if they
would score. Two errors and a hit
filed the bases and with no one out
a score seemed practically certain.
Fullwiler was equal to the emer-
gency however and extricated him
self out of hole, of no small pro-
portions, by striking out the next
three batters that faced him.
Princeton continued their scoring in
the fourth round and added three
more to their total. Wilkes, r..
Berg and Mallette each hit safe and
all of them scored. Foley's first run
came in the fifth inning, Alex Mush-
ell crossing the registering station
for them. In Princeton's half f.
Nutshell did the twirling for Foley
in place of Ahles and the locals we're
BANKED. Foley was again BANKED
in the sixth inning, but the local
huskies annexed four more runs.
Doane, Berg, Mallette and Smith ali
drove out clean hits and scored.
Wilkes also hit safe but was retired
at third BASE Foley secured an
other run in the seventh, when
Ahles completed the circuit, while
Princeton added two more to their
total in their half. Wilkes nailed
out three-base drive and scored
when R. Berg poled out two-bag.
ger. Mallette J drove one to the
fence for three bases and Berg
scored. The side was retired when
Smith sent one to the left fielder.
Foley's turn to rejoice came in the
