In series of three games played at
Havre Sunday and Monday, the Glas-
gov team came out second best, win
ming but one game Of the series.
According to the schedule previous
ly arranged. there was to be a game
on Saturday, Sunday and Monday, but
a heavy rain on Saturday made it i'm
possible to play on that day. Sunday
afternoon the diamond had dried out
sufficiently to play the first game, al
though there were a number Of soft
spots which made it difficult for the
fielders. :... Z.
A fair sized crowd attended to see
the game and lively tussle was ex-
pected when it was announced that
Williford, the crack Big Sandy south
paw would do the twirling for Glas-
gov and that Needham, Havre's new
slab artist, imported from the North
ern League, would be on the mound
for the Collegians.
The game, which ended 16 to 4, with
Glasgow on the 4 end of the score, was
remarkable for the heavy hitting of
both teams and the errors by the Glas-
gov players, in the pinches. The
game started disastrously for Glas-
gov, Havre getting four runs in the
first inning and three in the second.
In the second inning Glasgow started
on Havre's trail and two runs were
brought in on Benson's smashing two
bagger up against the hills in right
field. Glasgow added another in the
third and one in the fourth and had
numerous opportunities to score but
were unable to hit when hits meant
runs. Williford was touched for fif-
teen safe hits and these coupled with
fielding errors, gave Havre their big
score. In the seventh inning of this
game, Williford was derricked after a
home run and a single had been CLEAN
ed off his delivery with none out, and
Ike Slette took the mound, and held
Havre down with one hit, striking
out two men in the eighth inning and
causing the other to foul out.
Monday afternoon the two teams
played double header, Benson and
1ngersoll doing the mound work. In
this vame also, the Goddess of For
tune deserted the Glasgow boys and
punched hits and errors gave Havre
big lead, the game ending II to 0
in favor of Havre. In this anne Hur-
ly was forced to leave the game in the
second inning with a bruised finger,
Motz, finishing the game behind the
bat.
In the second game Glasgow partly
redeemed their lost laurels when they
came out at the long end of t neck
and neck game, winning by score of
9 to 8. Navarro, the crack Chinook
pitcher, did the hurting for Glasgow
and Duffy performed for Havre. Both
pitchers were hit hard but Dame For
tune smiled on the local boys in this
game and they played closer to their
true form than in any game of the
series. In the eighth inning with the
score to in Glasgow's favor, the
locals scored five runs, most of these
being due to 1ngersoll's errors on Sec
ond base. Stone the Havre catcher
had been forced to leave the game
with broken finger and Conway, the
fast Havre second baseman went in
behind the bat and Ingersoll was put
on second During the short time he
was in that position Ingersol made six
errors and practically lost the game
for Havre. In their half of the eighth
Havre got to Navarro for five runs
but were still one behind when the
game ended.
