nings to find themselves in the game
with st. Adams at the Berlin street
grounds Saturday afternoon. In looking
for themselves the locals incidentally
discovered the way to slap the floating
zephyrs which Mr.. Osborne spun down
the line from the hill to the batter's
box. When the elongated st. Albanian
was finally compelled to eapitulate, he
received terrific lacing; the boys
touched him only four times at that, but
when they cuffed the ball they cuffed it
awfully hard. For six innings it was
the best game Of the season, anyway
you care to look at it.
Joe Weafer was on the hill for the
home towners and after making due al
lowance for the charley horse that has
been flirting with his right wing, it
must be admitted that Giuseppe had it
on the angular satellite from the Rail
road city by something like seven yards
Osborne had little on the ball, neither
speed nor crooks, and after the Athletics
finished slashing wildly at his high ones,
they got together and collected four bin
giles. Four for six tallies are none too
many, but it must be remembered that
they were bingles and not singles. All
told, they amounted to IL bases. Field
ing honors were about even. but it was
noticeable that the Italians are not vet
the smooth fielding team of last year.
1t was relieving to note that st. Adams,
among all teams that have been in our
midst this year, showed more pep, less
of O disposition to play the game me-
chanically, and a real desire to win in
measure that other visitors may well
emulate.
st. Adams got its first run on sin
gle by Post in the second and a mark
down. He stole second with space to
spare, dropped down another notch on
Quebecs fast roller to third and trotted
home on a passed ball In the fourth,
Post got life on Davidi's miseue, went
to tn. second pillow ON a passed ball
and scored when Larry elouted out a
steaming triple to the boards. Larry
was afterwards declared out for failing
to touch second on his circle round the
paths. After that about all the invaders
did was to wish for scores.
Italians were stacked up on the bases
thickly after the fourth inning, but their
feverish chasing of Osborne's air globules
kept them in the dugout most of the
btAit up W Niiob 1iitPlNAs piVNhhiI Ia
vidi was the only man to get hit in
the first five sessions. 1t was in the
fifth that Bottigi gained lease of life
on Posts bad boot and was trailed home
by David, who pushed the pill into cen.
ter and under the fence for homer.
just then it stood two ALL but it was
not for long. The bases filed rapidly
in the sixth, but air tight work on the
part of st. Adams infeld kept the tally
ing down to a minimum. Fowlie went
down on Hibbard's gross error and
reached third, but he was nipped in due
time at the plate. Comolli, who profited
immensely by 0sborne's periodic wild
ness, got walk and after wriggling
around to the third point, he registered
on Calcagni's pretty sacrifice, which was
neatly gathered in by Hibbard
Another fusillade in the seventh Ric-
ciarelli was safe on Posts error and
Marchesi walked. Both counted on
Counters timely wallop for two sacks
and Counter scored on Fowlie's three
sacker. The latter was caught between
third and home on the next turn when
Comolli lifted A fly to Larry, who dou-
bled to Post. In the ninth Weaferi led
off with triple and Calcagni walked.
Snappy infeld work prevented any more
insertions in the run column. The score:
