n-SHOOTS
By /. LOOkemOVer

Dover tomorrow.
Lynch is going strong.
Get them Saturday team.
Wright pitched in fine style.
Hager was there iR the pinch.
Come out Saturday and help cheer.
Legar with three hits last Saturday
led with the stick for Milford.
Hardesty, for Dover, proved himself
a good run getter in Saturday game.
Heck Townsend stole second while
the Dover pitcher was watching him.
Maybe he thought Heck was too old
to run.
Old Heckus is fooling the world-old
cry of 'toO old" and is still playing
good ball. Wonder if his grandchil-
dren see him play.
Complaint has been made by the
Milford band that they are just get
ting started, so we retract the lines
about them of a few weeks ago; but
as yet we have heard no noise.
