Togus, July 29.-In a ten inning
thriller, by Garrison finish in the
last inning. Togus took the strong
Oxford team Of Rumford into camp
Sunday afternoon. The game was
replete with good playing, hard hit
ball, big-league stops and throws and
hard catches in the outfield. Easily
the feature of the game was the cir
Gus catch of Ray Beaudoin in left
field of Wagner's hard drive in the
seventh inning, which was as pretty
a bit of fielding as was ever seen on
the Home diamond. Although Ray
covered his territory in his usual fine
way and contributed the feature of
the game in the catch mentioned,
Gilmore, who covered the same field
for the OXfords, played a marvellous
game, accepting seven chances with
out an error, one of which was near
ly as hard chance as that taken by
Beaudoin. The finish of the game
nearly gave the some three thousand
fans heart failure. After tying up the
game in the eighth inning, trailing the
OXfords from the first inning, the
Home team made a hard bid in the
ninth for the game. but GirouX hit to
second base, Harvey lofted a high
one to center field and Booth flied
out to Gilmore. After holding the
Oxfords safe in the tenth, Eastman,
first man up for Togus hit the first
pitched ball into deep left for home
run, finishing the game with no one
out
Oxford got off to a good start, Gill
more, first man up hitting safe. At
ter Stewart went out, pitcher to first,
Crawford got life on an error by
first, Wagner hit for two bases scor-
ing Gilmore and Crawford. Frazier
was also out, pitcher to first, but
Todd hit safely to left field, stole sec
ond and both he and Wagner scored
on Marston'S hit over second bag.
This ended the scoring on the part of
the OXfords. Several times in later
innings they were in position to
score. but Davidson frightened and
wouldn't allow one pushed across.
Although hit hard in the first inning
Dave came back and held them safe
at all times during the rest of the
game. His support was good and at
times sensational. After Oxford had
scored their four in the opening in
ming Togus came back at them IN the
second half with two earned runs.
Booth, first man up flied out to left,
but Eastman hit to left field, stole
second, advanced to third on Leo
Hcaudoin'S short hit, after Ray
Bcaudoin had flied out to third and
both Eastman and Beaudoin scored
on DavidSons solid clout 10 center.
Ray Beaudoin scored the third
run in the third inning, TAX
ing first on fielder's choice

game at four all. First man up in
this inning he clOutcd hard one to
center field which the fielder dropped
and when he had the ball in his
hands again Ray was roosting on

Leo Beaudon's infield out and scored
on Iaflin's solid smash to left field.

CHICAGO, Jan. 13.-"Salome," ban
ished from the Chicago opera stage

thrown into the discard after futile
attempt to convince Chicagoans that
the operate version Of Oscar Wilde's
famous work is art and not immor-

Scores of persons, headed by Mrs.

launched such a storm of protest
against the opera that Mary Garden.

-pany, yielded to their wishes and can
eeled all future performances of "Sa-

frequently has asserted that 1t is her

The opera was first produced here
IL years ago, but after three per-
formances, the protests became so
voluminous that 1t was abandoned.
This year Miss Garden revived 1t,
playing the title role herself.
Two performances OF 1t have been
given.
Chicago doesn't like 1t. so we
won't give it," said Miss Garden.
