partments of the game and displayed
Is good work as any team to play here
this season. Levin pitched strong
game at all times, allowing only five
hits, three of which were scratches.
He kept the Lawrence team hitting i'll
the air, and either Coburn or Til
beault was usually under these fly
balls. Coburn's work in the outlield
was the feature Of the game. He got
six putouts, cutting off several possible
hits by pretty running catches: Bragg
was ait hard throughout the game,
but the score would have been smaller
if he had received good support from
the outfeld on these hits. Lewia,
Beal and Bou6ord were the heavy
stickers for Skowhegan. Stoodley
the much touted home run hitter got
only a scratch single, over second

fifth when Parlin doubled, went 10
