Brattleboro showed by far the best
team of the season Saturday afternoon
and took a fall out of the B. & NJ. Y NJ.
c. A. team of Boston by score of to
4, on the Valley Fair grounds.
Both teams We're fighting for every
thing in sight and close decisions were
plentiful, and as usual the losing team
figured that they got the short end.
There We're two plays in particular
that were close. On both occasions the
runner was called safe and scored. The
visitors considered that one of these, on
which Taylor scored, was wrong but they
did not object to the decision on which
one of their players scored, evening up
to two counts.
Umpire Clune was off on one decision,
calling a batter out on the third strike
which was dropped without first base be-
ing occupied, but this, as it turned out,
did not affect the score. However, the
visitors after the game used this and all
other close decisions as an abb for their
defeat
Two new faces appeared in the locals
lineup, Austin playing at second and
Yarker at third. The latter's all-around
playing was one of the features of the
game Using the head is what makes a
good player, and Johnnie used his all the
time, playing for the man nearest home,
and on each occasion but one he got what
he played for

frame, when the first man singled to
