TIE GAME WITH
SEMINARY
Called at End of 18th So
That Visitors Might
Catch Train
EFFECTIVE SLAB
WORK BY RUSSELL
With Good Support He Easily Would
Have Won-Allowed but Seven Hits
and Struck Out Brattleboro Ran
Wild on Bases, Stealing IA.

Perhaps Brattleboro high, remember
inc an easy 10 to victory over Lee
land and Gray seminary at Townshend
early this spring, held the nine of that
school a little too cheaply, but after
battling yesterday afternoon on the
fair grounds for Is innings to to
tie some have decided that playing
Leland and Gray is no sineeure.
Throughout the game the pitching of
Russell stood out above all else. His
support in the outfeld was wobbly and
the Brattleboro team ran wild on the
bases, but even with that sort of sup
port Russell kept his head and his tenn
/ per and pitched all the time. He was
more effective in the last FIVE innings
than in some of the earlier ones. He
allowed only seven hits and only one
of the runs scored off him was earned.
Besides that, he got three safe hits,
scored a run and felded his position
well. He has every reason to be we'll
satisfied with his afternoon s work and
was disappointed that the need of
catching the train home forced the
calling of the game before a decision
had been reached. Kaine started the
/ game for Brattleboro on the slab, but
in the third inning four singles, a dou-
BILE and Brattleboro S one contribution
to the error column, a poor throw to
force a man at second, gave the visit
ors their four runs. He was hit for a
single and double in the sixth but
escaped without being scored on. When
he issued his only pass to the first mar
up in the seventh Coach Mulry sent
him to short and called Capt. Haskell
into the game.
Haskell was not warmed up well and
his arm was not in the best condition
as the result of his efforts in the
weight events at Burlington, but after
