visiting team did little changing
around. Daniels was taken from 3rd
base and put over to first, Crocker
was taken out of the box and Carruth-
ers put in. His entrance was greeted
was a lot of good-natured howls from
the crowd. for Carruthers was tall
like unto the Woolworth building.
He showed excellent form and the in
ming ended quickly. No score.
/ Fourth. First half. 1t was at this
stage of the game that Ticknor start
ed to show the Center Hill folks just
hod real pitcher acts. He slipped
over some hot ones that fairly sizzled
and the ones facing him felt their
heat. He let one batter hit a pop fly
and was quick put out. The next
batter received the same dose. When
the third came up, it was one, two,
three No score.
Second half. Carruthers, due to the
kidding of the multitude, commenced
getting wild A man was given a
base on balls and just when he had
two nice strikes on the next batter,
an unfortunate thing occurred in the
form of Carruther's sox deciding to
descend. Let US draw the curtain in
this scene of misery. In the shuttle,
Dansby stole second and the second
baseman was found sitting in a pud-
die of muddy water. Let us again be
charitable and draw the curtain. The
third baseman made a crackerjack
catch in the inning, when he caught a
foul ball near the black bleachers.
Two runs-Fred Luffman and Dams
by.
Fifth. First half. Ticknor gets to
work again, causing first two batters
up to hit pops and die away on first.
1t was at this time that Catcher
Brooks showed his metal. A swift
low foul tick hit him on the left knee
and certainly hurt. Picking himself
up, he put his mark on again and said
'1et's CO." Carruthers started kid
ding back, by trying to knock. the
signboard down with fouls. An un-
avoidable error by Ticknor started
some action on the part of Center
Hill. Two runs-Hays and Carruth-
ers.
Second half. Considering the mud
at the bases, some clever playing took
place. Leavengood made sacrifice
hit, allowing Liddell to score. One
run-Liddell.
Sixth. First half. The only man
hit by a pitcher in the game was
Smith. It was a slow ball and by the
way Smith trotted to first base, it
looked as if he VISA congratulating
himself on his good luck. Plenty of
action in this inning. Dansby was
slightly spiked on the leg. but went
on playing. One run.
Second half. Carruthers had more
trouble with sox, ditto shirt. Looks
like rain. Everybody on their toes.
No score.
Seventh. First half. On his sec
ond ball, Ticknor makes first batter
put neasy one right into his mitt.
The best running catch of the day
was made here by Bishop in center
| field. Brooks let one go by him, that
let Croker in home. Hays was caught
mapping and was put out by a fast
one from Catcher Brooks. One run
Crocker.
Second half. Liddell hit good fy
out but it was caught. Some swift
playing ended the inning at once. No
score.
Eighth. First half. Brooks again
shows form by catching a foul that
made even the visitors sit up and
take notice. The condition of the
lot made his feat the greater. Car
ruthers still wild. but good support
made the next two outs come quick.
Umpire made poor decision on first
base that caused plenty of comment
on the crowds part. No score.
Second half. Ticknor out on first
base by another poor decision, the
fault being that a player was between
the umpire and the play made, not
sand in his eyes, as was claimed BY
those present. Everybody happy, no
body mad. No score.
Ninth. First (and only) half
Ticknor, still showing great form
gets another one right into his glove
Not long after, a batter nicked the
ball, placing it one foot IN front ot
the plate. The last out was made by
Liddell, when he caught our tall
friend Carruthers asleep on base.
Manager "Pop" Goldman made the
following statement to the sporting
