Hunter from second,
Skowhegan's last score was made
in the Sth inning in single by
Sturteyant, who was advanced to sec
ond by perfect bunt up the first base
line by Pooler and was brought home
by Clark on his 4th hit of the day
who thereby completed a perfect
batting average, including a triple, a
double and two singles in four times
at bat The local men had no trou-
Bile in stealing bases on Steward, but
every North Arson man that tried to
steal second was caught by the per-
feet pegging of Clark The game was
full of fast plays, North Arson pulling
off two double plays one by Thorne
