MIDDLEBURY LOSES TO SPRING
FIELD.

In the most interesting game of the
year up to date Middlebury forced
Springfield into ten innings to win on
Porter field last Friday. A large crowd
was out to witness the first baseball
game of Junior Week, and good game
it was to witness. Springfield had won
from the University Of Vermont on the
day before by score of l9-0.
Springfield got two bagger in the
first, but the runner went no further,
the side retiring on two infed drives
handled by Bowers and Dewhirst and a
strike out. Middlebury started things
at once, Bower getting hit between
first and second. Brickett sacrificed,
Bresnahan got on by an error and
AYlward's long fly enabled Bowers to
score. Bresnahan stole second and
third, but was left there at the close of
the inning Middlebury got run in
each the second and the third, and held
Springfield scoreless through the first
four innings, In the fifth base on
balls, single, and home run netted
Springfield two runs and one in the
sixth tied the score. The tie lasted
through the seventh and eighth, but in
the ninth pass, single, a sacrifice
hit and an error gave Springfield lead
of two Bullis,a pinch Interior Middle
bury got double, and a single by
Brickett and one by Bresnahan tied the
score. In the tenth Springfield got two
more and in her half Middlebury was
unable to score, giving Springfield the
game.
Crippen was in his usual regular hot
weather form and kept the Springfield
team guessing, getting five strike outs
against four by Brown, the visiting
pitcher. Sears took third base in the
5th inning when Breseahan sprained
his ankle. Brickett caught a good
game. The score:

oessful-ProprIetor Arrested.

ing, securing small quantity Of liquor

intent to sell. She was held in $500

prosecuting for the state, and /, II. La
Feur representing Mrs. Burns.
There has been a good deal of talk
about liquor selling since the death of

have alleged that it was "dope" in
liquor which was responsible for the
young mans condition, and the famous

recalled. There is consequently a good
deal of excitement over the trial this
morning.
