The game was q good one and lived

before they stopped at the cpd Of the

In the third the visitors tailed UP
three more by hitCIng at the right

home on Verett's single, the affair |
was beginning to look slightly more /
like a baseball garue-and still the |
racket continued in the stands.
Poole, Boyd and Adams in order
singled through second base and Joe
Marx in attempting to clean the bags |
did manage to score Poole and Boyd. /
Jacobs, the Lumberton southpaw,
struck out three men in this inning
and doubtless saved his team from an
Overwhelming defeat.
Lumberton was game and IN the /
ninth Ladner boosted up the score
one BY reaching first on a fly Boyd /
dropped and then getting around for
a score when Poole fumbled Lees
gTounder and Adams missed the
throw made to catch Lee at second.
The game was all in all about the
best and peppiest played by the
Brides this season and there were, by |
actual count, three times as many
fans present as at any Of the pre-
vious games.
