UNION CHATTER
BY 'DUTCH."

First and Central came out Sat
urday all ready to take our scalps.
but.we sent them home with the one
part Of IA to score. Pretty good
practice for us.
Jester was in fine form, letting the
Market Streeters down with four
well scattered singles and showing
nine the strikeout gate. Getting bet
ter all the time. Jester. old boy.
'Al'' Stirlith, Juice" Carter
Pope" Sweeney and Fewclothes Nc
caulley sure did send the old apple
to all corners Of the field. Every
body accounted for a run and hit
at least.
What did you think of the game
with the Wilmington All-Stars?
Pretty good for a starter, I'll say.
Maybe you missed this big attrac-
tion and didn't get a chance to read
about it. Well, 1t was this way: at
the end of the seventh inning the
score stood 6-6 and the lump" call
ed the game on account OF darkness.
they thought they would as they ex-
pected a repetition OF their game
with the Delaware National Guards.
Sure, we can trim any team in the
City League. Don't believe it2 Well
come on that's what we want.
We had a pretty weighty propo-
sition on hand. Nitchie, Long,
Thorpe for instance. Pretty husky
fellows, all right.
stump" Carlin sure made q
couple Of nifty catches out in center
field. Got a couple Of pretty hits too.
Nice work
Rail" Darrell was sure picking
them up and pulling EN- down
around first. Peachy. bird. peachy.
Juice" Carter was popular again
with the club. Pair of doubles is
good enough hitting for any one.
oh, what a wallop that triple of
McCaulley's was! Five assists out
= of as many chances. Playing nice,
Fred, old man.
pop" Sweeney seemed 10 have a
fascination for "Inky" Nitchie's high
flies. Got them all, didn't you.
Pop"
pitch to him drawing two walks and
. lining out a hit. Neat playing, "Al."
"Inky'' Sutton caught his usual
good game and touched each of the
Stars pitchers for a hit.
Bullet" Cross got a few bad ones
which made him miss them. Kind
Of tough, Bullet" but your three
snappy assists pay up for them.

style holding down the Stars to 7
