Somerset Academy Notes

This year, Somerset Academy has
had one of the best baseball teams in
the history of the school Three
games have been played so far. The
first one was against North Anson
Academy at North Anson. The Athens
boys outclassed them in every de
partment of the game. The score was
Is to s in favor of Somerset Academy.
SolOn High school was also defeated
by Somerset Academy in a game play
ed in Athens on Wednesday, May II.
The batting of our boys was so ire
sistible that the Solon pitcher was
knocked out the box by the end of the
fourth inning, and a new one was put
in his place, He, too, proved an easy
target for the Athens boys. The
score was II to 4.
The most exciting game of all was
the one played in Athens on Friday
afternoon, May II, against a team
from Hartland, consisting of players
from the high school of that town, the
Town team and the Maine Central In
stitute The game was interesting
from beginning to end. The Hart
land team scored three points early in
the game. Beginning with the third
inning neither side scored until the
last of the seventh, when the Somer-
set Academy boys had batting rally
and tied the game Neither side
scored in the eighth inning. In the
ninth inning some wonderful hits
made by Everett Tufts, Donald Wood
man and Mylon Mason, sent two men
home, closing the game with a score
of five to three in favor of Athens.
The team consists of Victor Dysart
catcher; Clarence Tufts, pitcher;
Frank Sired, first base, Victor Cook,
second base; Mylon Mason, third base !,
Everett Tufts, short stop; Earle Fow=
-ler, left field; Donald Woodman cen
ter field; Byron Weston, right field
They have all done creditable work
in every game. While space does not
allow speaking of every one indiyid-
ually we cannot help mentioning the
skilful and effective pitching OF car
ence Tufts, who with more training
will surely develop into a pitcher
worthy of place on any of the col
lege teams in the State. The wonder
full catches and hits made by Donald
Woodman have saved the game many
a time Victor Cook is great on
stealing bases, and Victor Dysart Is
catcher that you cannot fool. While
the name of Frank Sired, the cap
tain. spells victory.
