Special Dispatch 10 THE New YoRK HERALD.
BosToN, April 1S.-On this night in
1775 Paul Revere. leading batter OF the
local coppersmiths' league. hung out
his well known lamp and on the bach
of his trusty Norwich touched every
base in Middlesex county In COM
memoration of that event the Yankees
of the American League this afternoon
hung various decorations on the lamps
of a couple of pitchers and touched
every base at Fenway Park no fewer
than ten times. 1t was a right merry
battle in which the New Yorks de-
feated the Red Sox by 10 to and
moved up into second place.
They might have taken that game
out TO Bunker Hill or over to Lex
ington to give the embattled Yankees
and the embittered Red Sox more room
for their trapped shindig of many
blows. Or better STILL they might have
appointed couple of hard hitting rep
resentatives and settled the question
in some pleasant boiler room. Ger
tainly Fenway Park was no place for
an exhibition of the great American
pastime this afternoon. For mean
southeast wind whistled tunes Of mis-
ery through the rafters. Dark clouds

About thousand fans. who must have
been decidedly hard up for outdoor en-
tertainment. blew in their hands and
frightened their mufflers about thor
necks. At times some of the fans took
the great work OF Deacon Scott, Waliie
Schang and Grunting Joe Bush as per-
sonal affronts and got hot under the
collar. But they could stand 1t. No
body was overcome by these torrid
waves
scottfe Scoots Everywhere.
1t must have been a bit unpleasant
for some of the enthusiasts with long
memories to see Scottie scooting all over
the infield to cut down hits and incident
ally crack out a brace OF doubles and
a single. as well as sacrifice, for
perfect batting average. Scott scored
three runs. 1t must have made a few
of the onlookers develop unkind
thoughts, rancorous ones. when they
saw Schang. Red Sox 1920. slam out
triple and two singles and raise ten
varieties OF Ned with the Frazee var
sity. II probably was a bit unpleasant,
too. from a local standpoint. to see Bush
make all kinds of trouble with a couple
OF singles and a sacrifice hy.s -

Having heard that Miller Higgins had
bought Whitley Witt from the Athletics
and had decided to give the emanct2ate

singles H. a row.

two more tallies in the seventh and

Huggins no doubt is thinking and cogi-

AS for Witt. Higgins said to-day that
