WESTERLY HIGH EASY FOR N. F. A.
Academy Boys Knocked Pitcher Lowry Out of the Box
Score to 4-Westerly Played Loose Game-Purvis
Pitched Latter Part, of the Game.

In a featureless game the N. F. A.
team won its first home league game
in the InterscholaStic league, Tuesday
afternoon from Westerly High by the
score of to 4.
The visiting aggregation were with
out pep and were easily baffled by the
Academy hurlers, Brickley and Purvis,
who were never in danger in any
stages of the game. Two of WeSter-
ly's runs were made on errors while
in the fifth the N. F, A. scored three
on a base on balls, and errors. Low
ny, the pride of Westerly's hurting
started on the mound but his port
side benders were put to the woods
quite frequently and he was replaced
by Critcherson who started off well
but lacked the pitching qualities.
After the game was sewed up in
the fifth Coach Overbagh sent Purvis
the recruit box man to the mound who
displayed good form and with more
seasoning will be a number 1 hurler.
H. Hull led the field in batting, get
ting a double and single out of four
trips to the plate.
In the initial inning the visitors
started a scare in scoring run, but
they crmbled as the game went on.
Coon walk and stole second on the
first pitched ball, L. Stanley's throw
being very wide; Robertson grounded
to ]. Hull and was an easy out, Craig
flied out to H. Hull, Coon taking third.
and with two down Lowry popped an
easy one to Shea who let it pass be
tween his hands, Coon scoring. Wit
cox walked but Clapp ended the in
ming by tanning the air.
In the seventh they scored another
run on a combination of errors.
The visitors made a hard try in
the ninth, Wilcox first up flied out to
Stanley, Oapp doubled, Fenelon reach
ed first on ]. Hulrs error, Smith
walked and Monti scored Clapp and
Fenelon with a timely hit Coon flied
out to Grove and Robertson spoiled
the chances by swinging three Wig
orous attemps at Purvis' round house
Banked in the first inning n. F. A.
got to Lowry in the second and with
two hits scored one run. L. Stanley
flied out. Cy Young singled and stole
second base, Shea flied out to Wilcox.
H. Hull who is prying himself in the
limelight as a clean up hitter, scored
Captain Cy with a double to, left
center, Brogan grounded out, Coon to
Craig.
One hit with the assistance of two
errors brought two more tallies to the

New York. May 18.-Dealings in
stocks today were the smallest of any
full session in over two months, the
total turnover barely approXimating
most half the business was transact

Various reasons and theories were
offered in explanation of the Stagnant
trading, the most plausible one being
that spectators as well as investors
were awaiting some definite develop

point Of fact. the market has been
very thoroughly liquidated and fresh
bull or bear ammunition is necessary

The short interest made the most
of some early unfavorable crop re-
ports to depress prices. Declines aver
aged a full point in the leading shares
and a little more in stocks of less sta
bility Thereafter the list fuctuated
narrowly, with occasional rallies. but
declining again at the close.
Foreign exchanges reflected the del
icate state of international finances,
Italian remittances hanging at recent
low quotations and francs going lower
than before. Even sterling exchange
exhibited unusual weakness, a. fact at

Rogue Club Held Special Meeting.

Willimantic, Conn, May 18-
The Willimantic Rogue club held a
special meeting Tuesday evening to
discuss plans for the coming season, a:
the Pleasant street grounds. The court
has been put in excellent shape and
is already the scene of some fine play
ing, President Spellman negotiating
two home runs Tuesday, allowing his
opponent but one shot.
1t is likely that concrete borders may
be laid on the grounds this summer
instead of rubber, thus making them
in every respect the equal of any
grounds in the country. The club
has membership of a. dozen or moro
and is in a prosperous financial con-
dition.

HUMPHREYS Betters Tesreau in Pitch

New York, May 18.-Chicago evened
its series with New York, winning the
second game today by a score of / to
0. 1t was a tight pitchers battle be-
tween HUMPHREYS and Tesreau. in
which both pitchers received perfect
support. Chicago scored in the first

ance that a first class article of ball
would be presented on the local
grounds. The board of directors of
the association named a committee to
ruA an entertainment in the Eden the
atre early in the season, in order to
make money for the team. A first
class program was given and did not
receive the support accorded an or
binary picture show. The team en-
tered the Mill league and the season
started with about $50 ahead of the
game. Three games have been played
and all lost.
A kindergarten pupil would have no
trouble in counting all that turned out
to see the games, and the majority
of those who did go gave the ticket
seller nothing more or less than a cold
stare, walked in backwards, so to
speak, to give the impression that they
were leaving. Affairs came to a head
at the meeting of the association last
evening when the treasurer's report
showed but so cents in the treasury
to pay for a, battery and the team
expense to Wauregan for the game
next Saturday, with several small bills
still unpaid and no visible means of
obtaining more money. 1t looks like
a case of bankruptcy.
The team can draw a crowd and
more than make expenses on Sunday,
but they are not allowed the privi-
lege of the ball grounds on Sunday
this year.
In view of the foregoing facts Fred
Racine, who had charge of affairs last
year. has decided to take matters en-
tirely over into his own hands and has
leased a ground to play on Sundays.
He started several men to work on
the ground Monday morning and soon
expects to have a good playing field.
Mr. Racine has the best wishes not
only of the fans, but also of most of
the inhabitants of the town who would
far rather have Sunday baseball than
the conditions which sometimes prevail
when folks have no other means of
taking up the leisure Sunday hours.
