All-Kensingtons Win
Defeating their opponents the Fal-
cons of New Britain, by a 5-4 score
the All-Kensingtons came out victor
ious yesterday afternoon in one of the
hardest fought games of the season at
Percival avenue field.
The boys were right on their toes
at every stage of the game and were
in danger of losing right up to the last
part of the game. Hayes was on the
mound for Kensington and added 16
strikeouts to his credit.
Too much cannot be said for the
work of this boy. He held the New
Britainites tight, proving himself a
pitcher of sterling worth.
Ventura, second baseman for the
AllKensingtons, started a rally in the
eighth when he knocked the pill for
a two Dagger, bringing in two men. in
sliding for second base he turned his
ankle and was temporarily incapaci-
tated, but he went back into the game
and played until the end.
Hayes, the Kensington pitcher, is
well known in amateur circles, having
been in the game for number of
years. He is valued member of the
team. Much credit is due the other
players, also, for the way in which
they held the fast New Britain nine.
The lineup for Kensington was Nc
Keen. catch; Hayes, pitch; McCor-
mick, first base; Ventura, second base;
Fields, shortstop; Giana, third base;
kingo, right field; Ives, center field;
Corr, left field.
Yesterdays crowd was the largest
at game this year. Manager Buck
ley was we'll pleased with the response.

ploye at the Stiles and Reynolds
Brick yard, was arrested this morning

IF some kind, knocking him to the |
grounds Wasso claimed this morn
ng that he was trampled on.

saying that the other man had hit
