SPEEDY TEAM
At SNOW HILL
Club Has Won 20 Games
And Lost g of Heavy
Schedule
POST-SEASON
SERIES FRAMED

SNOW HILL, Nd, Aug. 15.-1n
considering the claims OF the vari-
Gus teams for the Eastern Shore
championship the record Of the
Snow Hill team cannot be overlook
ed. This team has won 20 games
and lost nine TO date, and has play
ed very few Of the so-called weak
teams in making this record. OF the
games lost three were. among the
first six games played, before the
team had gotten into its stride.
This team Is one Of the hardest
hitting aggregations ever gotten to-
gether on the Shore, with such men
as Cutter Drury, Sharrets, Herb
Armstrong and Ike Roussey, and
the rest of the lineup almost equally
formidable. Opposing pitchers have
their work cut out for them 70 keep
the score down. In only two games
this year has Snow Hill failed to
score at least four runs. The pitch
ers who held the team these two
times were Jones. OF Salisbury, and
Nesbit, Of Pocomoke.
The Snow Hin outfeld Is the best
that has been seen on the local dia-
mond this year. and the inheld is as
good as any that opposing teams
can boast. The weak work in the
box that has characterized some OF
the games is being remedied, and
Manager Armstrong can now boast a
team that It's adherents think is Sec
ond TO none.
An attempt is being made to ar
range post-season series with the
strongest team obtainable, prefer
ably with one OF the strong Blue
Ridge teams Interest in the sport is
at fever heat and fans are coming
from many OF the surrounding
towns to see the excellent grade OF
ball that is being furnished. The
schedule for the rest OF the season
follows:
August Is, Onancock, away.

Derry looked puzzled and walked to-

Mrs. Kent worked quietly about the

slept most Of the forenoon. She tried
to shut her ears to the music, and the

In 10 months Derry had never been

the parade.
She sped on. The procession was
winding slowly out. drums muted,
