Salisbury Administers First
Shut-Out Of Season.
Standing OF The Clubs.
Thursday Night, August 81

In the last week, the local baseball
club has shown decided improve
ment in their play, winning four of
the last six starts. Last Friday
Farksley was the winner over POGO
moke by the score of A to 3, and on
Thursday, they were shut out for the
first time this season, Salisbury turn
ing the trick, the score being 8 to 0.
Several new faces have appeared in
the Pocomoke lineup in the last week.
Kreps, a pitcher; Ryan, shortstop;
and Sloan, second sacker, being the
new men. kreps comes from one of
the strongest semi-pro teams in Phila-
Gelphia, and he has been up in AA
kall with Rochester, should go big
;th the local club. Ryan, the short
stop, has played a stellar game so
far, connecting for homer with the
bases loaded in his initial appearance
here Tuesday.
The series last played with Parks
ley was split, the Pocomoke boys
winning Saturdays game, a to 3.
Tlillips was on the mound for the
home club, and although only allow
ing 8 hits was not sure of his game
until the ninth inning, when Eddy
walked, Wilson singled to center and
Mcknight drove a hot double to the
right field fence scoring both runners.
The series with Laurel was walk
over, Pocomoke winning both games
by big scores. Kreps worked his first
game against them Monday and was
the winner all the way, the score be-
ing 9-3. Alexander's home run with
bases loaded featured. Tuesday, Cor
dy pitched a fine game, winning easl-
". IS to 3. The feature of this game
was the hitting of Mcknight and Ry-
an, Ryan connecting for home run
with the bases full.
On Wednesday, one of tht most eX-
citing games ever seen on the local
lot was played, Pocomoke defeating
Salisbury 8 to 5. Phillips and May
were the pitchers and both were hit
hard, the game being see-saw affair
In the eighth inning with the bases
loaded, Decker lifted one over the
fence for home run, but the game
was not won until the ninth, when
Alexander's double and Ryan's single
brought across the winning tally.
Jim Roache took revenge on his
fl rmer teammates Thursday, working
for Salisbury; he shutout Pocomoke !
%. Alexander worked on the mound
for Pocomoke and pitched sterling
ball, allowing only four hits, but his
teammates could do nothing with
Reaches slants.

Most Fierce Fighting Fish.

OF all the fish that fight the cross
Of war with several palms goes
to the swordfsh. 1t may belt prob
ably is--that he is the best fighter be-
cause he Is the best armed and not
because he is more valiant and skill
full In combat than many others Of
the fierce fish that make a battlefield
Of the sea.
One of the reasons given for the ap-
parent increase in the number Of
sharks is mans destruction Of the
swordflsh, for the swordfsh has no
more pity for a shark than a robin
has for worm. Killing shark seems
to a swordfsh but gentle form Of
exercise. The swordfsh, in addition
to being an enemy Of the shark, is
also said to be one OF the great en-
emies of the whale, and this is hello
against the swordhsh as one of the
reasons why he should be destroyed
and eaten.
