st. bloomsbury 2, Barre I. A. G. 1

Yes, Gallagher is greater than Sar-
rette. This was demonstrated on the
campus Wednesday forenoon before
one of the largest crowds of the
season. True, the margin wasn't
enough to humiHate the Franklin
twirler who was working for the Bar
re l. A. c., the score being to L,
but it was a sure enough win and
after the two previous ties between
the same teams, local fandom had
something really worth shouting
about.
1t was one of the fastest games
ever played here, but two hours be-
ing required for ten innings. The
locals never showed better form and
played errorless ball while four mis-
plays were charged up against their
opponents.
This clean cut victory puts aside
all the talk and arguments which
have resulted from the two former
games which had anything but salts
| factory endings and now it is gen
orally conceded that st. Johnsbury
has the goods.
Lowe, imported by the locals for
this game, put up a star performance,
being credited with two of St. Johns
bury's six hits, and one of them was
responsible for a run. Keefe play
ed his usual steady game in the field
and took all the chances offered him
with an ease that made some of the
difficult plays look simple. Manager
Moore was also on his mettle and his
timely hit in the 10th proved to be
the one wanted as it brought Gal
lagher home with the deciding tally.

cheI were both on hand to help out
in the catching department.
Barre scored their only run in the
first inning. With one out Gay

ton Moore got a life on Giacum-
muzzis error but was out on second
when Hoernle missed the ball on the

reached first on Stuart's error but

Again the nothing doing sign was
out for the visitors, but for st.
Johnsbury Jack Davidson singled and
stole second. Witt was out on a long
fly and Shea famed. Lowe then con-
nected for a single which dropped be-
tween Bottigi and Long scoring Dav-
idson. This tied up the game and
Gallagher let out another notch.
The fifth saw the visitors again fail
to place a man on base while St.
Johnsbury worked one as far around
as third, but the score keeper was
still having a cinch.
In the next frame Lyon singled but
was forced by Gay. Gay reached sec
ond on a wild pitch, but Long and
Camolli were easy outs. Goose eggs
were hung up for both teams in the
next session.
The eighth and ninth failed to
produce anything like a score for
either team but in the first extra ses-
sion both outfits went after some
thing. st. j. landed theirs but their
guests had to be content with get
ting a man as far as first. With Gil |

three lusty swings Sarrette flied out
to Keefe and Riccarella also took the
count. With one down Gallagher re-

the show to an end by placing a clean
single into left on which Pitcher Gal
