Harrington boasts of it's youngest
Juvenile minstrel troupe. The youngs-
ters, the oldest of whom is probably |
not more than Is years, have been re-
hearsing their parts for sometime and |
they called their troupe the Red Rose |
Minstrels. They held a street parade
preceding the show, with the funny
end-men in elaborate costume and
black face leading the procession. Miss
Passmore entertained the audience
with some excellent toe dancing, and
several of the boys sang some good
selections. They lifted silver offer
ing at the door.
Last week the Harrington High
School craving for practice game de-
cided to take on the town team which
was huFriedly gotten together and
which was composed of a part of the
business men and former ball play
ers. The town team used Hummel in
the box, and the high school didn't !
have a show at all while most of the
old timers got at least one hit. Syl-
vester was the heavy clouter of the
day getting three hits and scored three
runs. Powell, our postmaster, was a
close second, getting two hits. DR.. !
H. E. Thomson played a bang-up
game at first base. The final score
was to with the town team on the q
ong end. I
Hummel and Sylvester hired out to
7oldsboro, Md, and played against d
Denton, Md, at Denton last Saturday. i
Iummel was on the mound and was
n his best form, had not rain inter- F
erred in the 3rd inning Denton e
would have received a severe trOunc- e
ng as only ten men faced Hummel in
he three innings. Il
