the celebration committee were endeav-
oring TO keep the large crowds back
from the field Since the Moretown Ath-
letic club defeated the Barre Athletic
club in the morning, Moretown now was
opposed to the GraniteVille Athletic club,
who previously challenged the victor of
the morning game. Shortly after the
ball was in play an objection arose from
the Graniteville management about the
umpires, not that their decisions were
unfair, but the ehallengers wished to
have one Moretown and one Graniteville
umpire. Consequently, Umpire Colombo
was replaced by Vivian behind the pitch
er's box.
From the outset interest was keyed
up to its highest tension in the two
teams composed largely of Barre and
Montpelier lads Every lad was deter
mined that he would do his best, which
probably accounted for the close playing
of seven innings.
The batsmen on each side for the first
three innings were retired almost sue
cessiveIy. Granai disregarded personal
property when il was up to him to catch

stance he quite Intentionally stepped
through a straw hat which happened ia
be in his path, but was saved the task
Of apology by the craftsmanship OF the

In the fourth, baseball playing and a
good knowledge of the game on the part
Of the Moretown players prevented
"Tommie" Starr from scoring. He was
the first to bat and started the ball roll
ing towards "Jum" Laird for bouncing
| infeld hit; Mckenzie sacrificed him e
second, then Bellanger drove single K
center. Starr attempted to reach home
on Irons throw from center field but
was caught at the plate by Bisbee II
the next inning Bartlett, who managed
to reach second on an error and by steal
ing, also attempted to cross the PLATE
on Irons single he, too, failed, giving
vent to Starts revenge, who made
nice catch at home plate from Finnigani
throw from left field.
"Jum" Laird made one of the bes
catches of the day in the sixth inninl
when he ran back for considerable
distance into center field and pulle'
down with one hand what looked to b
a sure hit from Bellanger's bat. II wa

and lasting about three hours Twelve
innings were played TO decide the game
to 2 in favor Of Moretown A. G. and
only for Granai's home nun would the
game been stopped in the 18th. The
game was fast and snappy and quite Tree
from errors throughout, making a very
entertaining game for all fans. Barre
took the field first and Irons stepped to
bat facing Tomasi, who pitched for
Barre. He hit the first ball pitched, to
left field and singled Ward flied to
center; Duba struck out, Laird walked;

and Davidson threw to first, getting

Slayton made pretty catch in the

A clever play was credited to him when

ming. The first error in the game was
made by Laird, when he fumbled a
grounder and made wild throw to first
in the fourth inning. Brown made fine
catch in the fifth inning when he got
Duba's long fly to left. The game con
tinued fast with both teams putting w
a fine game Bisbees score in the sew

intense interest in the game. With 8
