Timely Hits Give
Waterville High
Victory Over M. C.. |.

In game for the most part free OF
errors. Waterville High school won
from Maine Central Institute by a
score of to 3. The game was fea-
tured by the heavy hitting Of Beatty
and Hardin. the latter getting FIVE
safe hits out of as many times at the
bat. The Waterville boys came
through with long drives when the
bases were occupied. which accounts
for the large score. while the NJ. c. 1.
boys were unable to bunch hits when
q hit meant run. To pick out the
individual stars for the Waterville
team would be difficult task, as
ent game. Beatty and Thibodeau
showed up particularly we'll in the in
field. Toulouse deserves much credit
for pitching a very steady game. He
found himself in a hole just once.
when with a man on first. second and
third. and only one out. Larrabee and
Otis pulled off a sensational double
play which spoiled NJ. c. rs chance Of
scoring. The Waterville pitcher was
found oreight hits. nve Of which
were Of the scratch variety. while a
total Of 12. all Of which counted in the
scoring. were secured of Emery. The
Waterville team has come along in
great shape since last Saturdays
game and proved without a doubtthat
it is formidable aggregation at the
bat. as we'll as a strong defensive
team in the field. waterville scored
in the first. Beatty. the first man up,
drove out long hit to left field: Car
ter struck out. Harding hit safely. ad-
first on error by Palmer, thus putting
a man on first, second and third. Lar
rabee. the next man up. lifted a high
fly to short center, Beatty waiting on
third raced home after the ball was
caugM. beating out perfect throw
by inches. In the second inning Tib-
odeau hit by the pitcher. went to first.
Toulouse beat out a slow rolling
bounder. Otis. the third man up.
drove out the longest hit of the game.
and had the Waterville boy not slip
ped at second. it would have been a
homer. Thibodeau and Toulouse
scored on the hit: Beatty flied out.
Carter was thrown out at first and
Otis. who had stolen third. came home
on Hardin's second hit. Hardin was
caught off second. ending the inning.
In Waterville's half Of the fourth. Be
atty. Carter. Hardin and Begin each
secured a hit. in succession. Beatty
and Toulouse scored in this inning.
Waterville's last two runs came in the
9Th when Hardin. with his fifth con-
secutive hit, drove in ISeatty and Car
ter. NJ. c. I. secured two runs in the
fifth and again in the eighth.
Waterville's next game is with
Lawrence High school. Wednesday at
waterville. 1t looks as if there would
he n large crowd to see this game on
