BOSTON TIGERS
LOSE GAME Sc
TO FAIRBANKS
Maloney Slams Out Time
ly Triple; Pitching of
Witty Features

When one member of that Fair
banks A. A. wrecking crew does
not produce the winning poke
some other member does. Satur-
day when the locals were hard
pressed for runs IN that hay-mak-
ing contest with the Boston Color
ed Tigers, Jack Maloney thrust
himself into the picture with a col
orful triple to left center--an epo-
chal swat that registered Tommy
Grieve and the big chief Hoernle
The self-same swat incidentally
fractured the 6 to 6 tie and gave
the Fairbanks A. A. the winning
margin to 6.
Thursday, Frank McLaughlin's
crashing single over second won
the Saranac Lake game. The day
before Ted Butler slammed a two
bagger into right field and clinch-
eG another game with the Saranac
stars. Then 4 short time ago
Charles Hoernle was dubbed King
of Swat for planting a home run
in the cornfeld back of the left
field fence. The foregoing local
ball tossers are all members of the
Fairbanks A. A. wrecking crew
Some one of this gang can always
be depended upon to bust up ball
game. Saturday Jack Maloney did
it.
The dusky warriors from Boston
got away to a bad start in the first
inning against Fairbanks. Hoernle
reached first on an error by Dan
iels, the little Cuban huIler
Charles stole second and took
third when Daniels was tossing
out MaIoney at the initial sack
Butler singled through the inheld
scoring Hoernle with the first
marker.
Mclaughlin was given life on
a bad tumble Ivy Thomas and went
all the way to third on Kelley 5
monosack as Butler counted on the
biff. Mac himself tailed soon
thereafter on a passed ball. Fair
banks was thus given running
start of three big scores.
Cuddy Murphy got along splen-
didly in the opening chapter, but
when Moore, the powerful Boston
third sacker, pummeIed home
run into the Passumpsic river in
right field and Phillips swung a
duosack in the same direction fol
lowed by a single to left by Lo-
max, chief Hoernle decided to take
no chances with the lame whip OF
his big cX-Dartmouth HEAVIER and
yanked him out of the box. The
Tigers had produced two run,
when Art Kelley came in from the
outer garden and assumed the
finging burden.
Kcl was found for but a single
poke in this session. hit to right
by Russcll-and he then finished
the stanza strong by tanning Dan
iels. The hit had scored another
tally, however, which placed the
invaders and the locals on even
terms at 9 to 3.

the Fairbanks crew went hitles-

two innings. The Tigers, how.
ever, penetrated the locals defense
and punched in a run in both the
third and fourth innings. An error
by Lavely followed by Moore
triple produced the counter in the
third while .ingles by Conkln
Crudup and LomaX, coupled with
two sacrifice hits, accounted fol
the marker in the fourth.
Art Kelley was faring none toe
