LACK" DUNN'S ORIOLES

Dick Porter, star shortstop and
heavy hitter of the st. Johns College
baseball team, has quit the local in
stitution and signed a contract with
Jack Dunn's Baltimore Orioles. He
played his first game yesterday and
aided materially in the II to 3 victory
which the Orioles registered over the
Toronto Leafs. He fielded his posi-
tion in splendid style, and poled out
two hits out of five trips to the plate.
He scored a run, and accepted three
fielding chances that came his way.
Speaking of his work, Don Riley" of
the Baltimore Sun, has the following
to say in the Sun of this morning:
"'Dick' Porter, the st. Johns cap
tain, was on second base, and put up
a dandy exhibition. Porter was called
to the defense when other candidates
proved unsatisfactory. and his work
was first-class from the time he took
the field"
This afternoon the st. Johns toss
ers are entertaining the nine of Will
liam and Mary College, of Williams
burg, Va, now on a Northern trip. 1t
was planned to put Smith, pitcher
and utility fielder in Porter's position
at short. The game got under way at
4 o'clock
