Manchester Wins Three.

Manchester did it's share of cele-
brating the Glorious Fourth by an
nexing three games OF base ball, one
in the morning and two i'm the after
noon.
The Manchester Juniors defeated
the Hampstead Juniors in the morn
ing, to 8.
The real battles were fought in the
afternoon when the Pikesville Ath-
letic Club drove on the field accom-
panied by about 80 'rooters."
Loats went to the mound in the
curtain raiser OF the matinee per
formance and it was the Jerry" of
old that the audience had the pleas
ure of cheering. He well demon
strated the come back act by strik-
ing out seven batters, giving only one
pass to first and allowing but 8 hits,
several OF which were of the scratch
variety. Not content with his often
sive work, he helped his colleagues
to win the game by contributing two
safe drives. Pikesville started OFF like
a house a-fire by scoring two runs
in the first stanza on three hits, a
sacrifice and an error by Mitten.
When two runners crossed the plate
Jerry" hung out the nothing doing
sign, struck out the next two batters
and pitched invincible ball the next
8 innings.
The local went after Criswell in
the second inning and sored two runs
on hits by Sullivan, Tracey and Loats
and d sacrifice by Shugars, and
except the third and eighth. Tracey
he hot ofn n &c 70 orc
being 1000, while Mitten, Sullivan,
Shugars, Loats, A. Eckenrode and C.
Carver used their clubs with effective
results.
Shugars went to the firing line for
Manchester in the second contest and
was opposed by Cox. Sleepy" was
as wild as March hare but his op-
ponents could not take advantage OF
his complimentary tickets, and not
runner counted on account OF his
lack Of control. When hits meant
runs he put 'em over with clouds OF
smoke and cut the corners with his
baf1ing curves. The locals had the
better of the argument all through
but were given a scare In the eighth
The Pikesville boys went to bat in
that inning with the score to
against them but with the fighting
spirit that wins many games and
scored four runs, making the count
to 4 in their favor. Manchester dent
ted the rubber twice in their half oi
the eighth and drove Cox to cover
He retired in favor Of Shipley after
two men were disposed of, the latter
caused Miller to fly out to Childs
ending the inning.
R. Buchanan and Mitten carried OF
the batting honors in the second en-.
