VOCatiOna'S 9th Inning Rally Wins Game

Vocational school of New London rough VI jostled \. F. A. out of first place in the high school league Saturday afternoon on the campus by winning out in the ninth stanza of a game which though full of rnisplays of various kinds, was on the whole interesting and exciting enough. The score was F to &.
 The main cause of the defeat was failure to hit. All the locals could gather were three singles, all of which were crowded into the fourth inning, and in strumental in producing four of the eight runs. and incidentally in dusting Brown off the mound. Dwyer, VocationaTs ace, was sent in and in the five innings he worked not a safety was made off his of- terings.
 Difhy pitched good ball for seven in- nings bnI Teskened in the last two in- nings and was hit freely, which coupled Fith a few costly errors by his teaui- mates, gave Vocational the game and a comfortable surplus besides HitchOn pitched a short while in the ninth.
 Vocational started right in on the frs. bah of the first inning, Wilson hitting for Two bases when Young lost the ball in the bun. Captain Lonergan sent hin Q third pn single to right Louergan took sec pnd. Wilson scored on a sacrifice fly by Brown. LonerEan scared on Noonan'a single to left
 The first N. F. A run was put across ln the third. Harwuod reached first on Lonergan's error and went to second when Higgins was hit by a pitched ball. Both moved up a. place on Diffly's sacrifice. Harwood came home when Dwyer let Whineys Erounder sift through him.
 In the first half of the fourth Vocation al brought their count up to four. N. F. A iu haf hu1 ,,J only hits of the Eame-three of them put over four counters and took the lead, which they held till the eighth. Both ycored in the seventh. one for Vocational and three for our heroes making it to } in favor of the latter.
 With only six outs to make, it looked rosy for Norwich. but before three of the puts had been achieved Vocational had battered three runs over the saucer and tied the game. N. F. A. could do nothing with young Dwyer in the last two frames and four of the six hitters went out a ls whiff Vocational scored four runs in tn, ninth, winning the game and everything
 As a result of this game, Bulkeley, Vo cational and x. F, A. are tied for frs place in the league. and when any two O the teams meet the fans can bank on game well worth going miles to see An, by happy chance just such a game i booked for this afternoon on the campu between BuIkeley High and Norwich Ere Academy. The game will not start untt s.5o D m, standard time in order to giY the people A chance to review the parade T. is hoped and expected that a Iarg crowd will be on hand to help the boy tn their fight to bring the hSsh schoc lernant to Norwich.
 Hitehon will probably pitch for N. F. 4 and either 0Onnell of Higgins will catcl
 gcore.
