The Ball Game

In a 10-inning game on the Central

won from the Dexter ball tosserS by
score of to I. Anyone having any
doubt as to the quality of the ball
games being played at the fair this
year forgot his doubts and started
roofing. for it was the kind Of a game
! that one always hopes to see but al
most never does. Soon after it started
it was evident that it was a battle be-
tween circuit and Fowles, each pitcher
| backed by eight crack players. The
hits We're fairly plentiful. each team
garnering six, but they were well scat
tered.
In the fourth inning Thibodeau was
| thrown out at first. Doull came up
and cracked the apple for a single. He
| went down on an error and got to third
on a passed ball. Doull came up and
| smashed out a single, driving Thibo-
deau in for the first run. Both teams
went along without further scoring
until the eighth. which was DeXter's
| only inning. Karlios had the honor of
crossing the home plate. He made
| first on clean single, and went the
| rest of the way Oh combination of
| wild pitch. sacrifice by Boutot and a
| stolen base. 1t looked as though the
! teams We're going to stay on the dia-
mond until darkness. Inning after in
ming rolled around with each team
working like a machine.
In the last half of the 10th things
broke for the local boys, although the
outlook was dubious the first part of
the half. O'Brien flied out to left.
Then Baird, who was hitting the ball
/ right in the eye. came up. He singled
out a nice one and laid it out of reach
over second for a good single. Shan
ahan came up and was thrown out at
/ first. but meanwhile Baird had reached
second. Two out and man on second
| with Thibodeau was recorded in the
scorers book. Thibodeau was the man
of the hour and he sustained his repu-
| tation by lining out the sphere for
| two sacks. The game was over, for
| Baird crossed the plate.
The II. & w. boys won the right to
| compete with their keenest rivals.

pretty nearly every day but Sundays

built this pen for the hens and decided

agree with the biddies and he always
has plenty of eggs on hand. These
hens are raised on Wirthmore feeds.
