Newark post., 1915-05-05


With the usual opening friIls the
lid was lifted on the Delaware
Maryland Baseball League season
last Saturday and Newark, Elk
Mills and Parkside were the first
game winners.
Newark had New Castle as op-
ponents and trounced the team
from Shutdown by the score of 8
to 3. While the crowd was not as
large as was expected yet there
was a good representation of fans
on hand to see Manager Ellison's
hopefuls in action for the first
time in the new organization. They
were well pleased with the show
ing made by the locals, who look
even stronger than the team that
captured the Tri-County League
Pennant last year.
The mayors of both towns hon
ored the game with their presence.
Mayor Hossinger did not throw
out the first ball as scheduled but
he proved a regular fan and root
ed as hard as the most ardent fan.
Mayor Richard Rodney accompan-
led the New Castle players and a
crowd of rooters from that town.
Jake" Hogan, who pitched New
ark to a pennant last season, was
on the mound and seemed to have
all Of his old stuff. After the first
inning the visitors could do little
with Hogan, who uses his down.
town wing when pitching. This
sidewheeler action had the shad-
mems goat for fair after that first
inning. Six scattered hits was all
that they could accumulate off the
southpaw, who also famed seven
and walked but two.
Gallagher was chosen to try and
bring home the bacon for New
Castle but failed. He went along
fairly smooth until the fifth inning
although the locals were touching
him up in places. His downfall
came in the fifth and sixth when
some solid hitting coupled with a
disastrous passed ball gave New
ark seven of their eight runs. This
was more than enough to win most
any game when Hogan is twirling.
While there were but two new
players on the Newark team from
the makeup Of the club last year
yet these two changes will no
doubt greatly strengthen the club.
Stephenson and Schmickel divid-
ed the work at second base but as
the latter made the best showing
he will probably be selected for
the regular berth. Kirke in left
field was the other new man. He
formerly played with Rising Sun
and has been picked by many fans
as the best outfielder in the old
Trl-County League. Both the out
field and infield looked fast enough
for many minor league clubs.
Dick" Morris furnished some
thrills by his clever work in CEN
ter field and another fielding fea-
ture was pulled off by "Billy"
Jackson, when he got Mayhart's
drive in the first inning after it
had bounced off Stephenson's shins
and threw the runner out at first.

Elk Mills won the opening game
from Elkton which was played at
Elk Mills by the score of to /. 1t
was an even game until the sixth
inning when Elk Mills landed on
Clay for two runs and sewed the
game up in the eighth by batting
the Elkton twirler for five runs.

Parkside Wins Opener
Parkside, the team that many
fans think the winner of the league
pennant will have to contend with,
took the opener at the Front and
Uninon street grounds on Satur-
day from the Traction Co. by the
score of 5 to |. Traction got eight
hits off Coffin but they were kept
well scattered while Parkside
touched Jolls and Morley up for
ten safeties. Traction Co. also
played a loose fielding game. The

to hold it's own with any of the in
dependent teams of the State.
Gray did the pitching for the Con-
tinental. This team will play
home games on the Delaware ave-
nue. grounds on Saturdays that the
Newark club is away.
Johns Hopkins defeated Della
ware to 6, on Saturday, in an ex-
citing contest which went eleven
innings. The game was full of hair
raising plays and kept the specta-
tors on their feet from start to fin
ish.
Delaware had two bad innings,
the second and ninth. Hopkins
scored four runs in the second
! inning on two hits and three err
rors, but Delaware settled down
and played good ball for the re-
mainder of the game. In the first
half of the ninth Hopkins scored

Bledsoe county has road almost
completed through the county from the
Sequatchie county line to the Cumber-

county was commenced before the
Dixie highway project was mentioned
and less than ten miles remains to be

Those best informed feel sure the
Kentucky counties south of Lexington
will build their part to connect with
the Dixie highway as located through

Fentress county is one OF the most
enthusiastic counties of the five and
they are ready and willing to build
the road through their county.
Pickett is a small county but it only
has about miles and will surely be
built.
The main action that now seems nee
essary is to line up the counties in
Kentucky between the Tennessee state
line and Lexington, KY, so that the
line to Lexington may be
assured. Those well informed on the
situation feel that the Kentucky coun
ties will gladly act in conjuctlon with
the Tennessee counties and the line
will be completed.
