called down for the manner in which
he delayed the game by his slowness
In delivering the ball.

Taubel, of Riverside, went to Beverly,
Saturday, and won game by the
score OF 8 to 2. Beverly got IA hits,
but that was not enough to win on.
Taubel got nine hits. three of which
were made by Hubbs, whose good
stick work won the game.
Something was certainly out of
order. Beaudry had three errors,
Frank Foulks had two and Forbes had
two. The latter sent three men to
base on balls. Two of the cases did
not amount to much, but the long hit
by Jimmy Greenwald made it possible
for the third man to score.
Some Of the Mount Molly players
did not get to the grounds until nearly
time to begin the game and had little
chance TO practise. This may have
been the reason for their ragged play
ing. Ii that is the case they should be
told what time to be on hand and the
order should be obeyed.
Had Mount Holly played in the
form that has characterized it up to
Saturday 1t would not have had any
trouble in winning by good score.
True, Delanco had heavy hitters, who
found Forbes for ten hits, but the rag
ged fielding of Mount Holly had much
to do with the runs scored by the visit
ors.
Forbes has had good offer to play
with the Chester, Pa, team, the bal
ance of the season. LaFitte, who
pitched for Riverton- Palmyra, last
year, in the only game that Mount
Holly lost, is with Chester, but it is
evident that the manager of that club
feels the necessity of having good
pitcher on his staff.
Jimmy Greenwald was on hand aud
he had his stick with him. He got
two hits. One of them went to the rye
field and but for tbs field rule agreed
upon before the game it would have
counted for a home run. AS it was he
was only allowed three bases and that
saved the game for Mount Holly.
Jimmy is good catcher. He made
fine capture Of high foul after long
run.
There was kick by Delanco in the
first inning. Morgan struck at the
third ball and Greenwald failed to hold
the ball. Morgan hesitated and then
ran to first and made it safely. The
claim was put in that Morgan was out
for not running at once. DeIanco
evidently forgot the play made on it's
own ground one time, when one of the
Delanco team missed the third strike.
went to the players bench and then
ran to first and the umpire declared
him safe.
