the other things he did Kenneth con-
 nected with triple and helped score a couple of runs. Braun, Martin and Bracket each kissed the pill twice. Herring opened the game for the To- calls on the mound, but he was as wild as the hawk and the opposition re- fused to bite. For five innings he la
 bored, but so vain1y, for when he re- tired at the close of that paragraph the game was at to with the locals | leading, but the Worcester men com ling along fast. Marty Walsh rushed out onto that hill and instructed to patch up the victory. He worked three innings and in that peried held | the Boosters to three hits and without having a run scored against him. 1 The locals had a hard time of it, l too, with the exception of the third | inning when they won the game.

 Ten batters faced Lindstrom but the opposition management had sufficient 1 confidence-even though they scored six runs on him what's a matter of
 six runs between teams to allow
 him to fin5ghatlie game. And this is
 what happehed in that chapter:
 Braun's high one was muffed by Johnson. The Bridgeporter stole sec i ond while Manager Grimes counted
 out. Baker drew fpur balls and took
 his time goipgI t0 frsS Skiff doubled,
 scoring Braun andsBaker. Martin, too, 1 two -ba ggered, skiff coming in. K ] Grimes lifted a Texas 1eaguer Martin i managing to beat out a throw to the i plate. Herring came through with a l timely triple, Kenneth coming back
 home. Bracket tripled and the l and he did unmo1ested. Braun up for I the second time, rolled fatally to Lindstrom. In the first the locals had scored | two runs, as much as the visitors | scored. Brauns poor fielding was re- sponsfble. The last Bridgeport tally l was registered in the seventh when | Martin came home on a good single 1 followed with nifty bang by Ken meth.
 | While the Americans were beating l Worcester here, the Grays were taking
 two games out of Springfield, 3-1, 3-2, l thus strengthening their hold on the
 lead. Lowe pitched both games, but | in the second he was literally all in
 and should never have been started i The support given him was the best | that could be asked - earrorless. | Denny Gearin worked for the Grays 1 in the initial contest, allowing the ] Springf1elders only three scratch hit

 commanding berth on the Johnson | table. Sixteen hits these two pitch | CTS allowed And these 6 hits went for 23 bases. Shore, for the Tanks,
