TRYING To
TAG Runner
JUNIOR LEAGUE.
MIDGET LEAGUE.

The first accident Of serious ma
ture to happen in the Boys Indoor
league occurred last night at Kakaako
hall when All Fook Lo, catcher for
the Befetania Juniors, broke his right
leg just above the ankle, in a desper-
ate attempt to tag a man sliding for
the plate. .zs@s.-. ~ =
The game, which was between the
Beretania and Kauluwela Juniors, had
hardly commenced when It was called
of on account of the accident. Kau-
luwela went to bat first and had edged
i've men over, with only one gone.
when Lo attempted to get Rosario as
he slid for the plate. The Beretania
catcher stumbled and his leg doubled
under him as he fell. He was rushed
to the Queens hospital, where the leg
was set and the ycungster given every
attention. The game was called on.
The Beretania Midgets defeated the
Kauluwela Midgets for the first time
I'm the opening game by an overwhelm-
inc score Of % to 5. The best that
Kauluwela could do was to get seven
hits from the alright pitching OF An
Young, who was backed I'D by his
teammates in great shape. Philip, the
star pitcher for Kauluwela, had an
on day. as Beretania batted the best
he had to offer to all parts of the hall.
His support, especially after the
fourth inning, did not improve mat
ters. All Young. who gave Kanluwela
their first defeat last night led his
team in batting, getting i've hits ana
scoring i've runs.
In the field Abraham and Muck.
Sung played the best game Tor Befe-
fania, while Tor Kauluwela Kazuo and,
Philip we're the only players that made
more than one hit
