laIIHFT anu pIlLS tdlIle ON IlFG, N'S- terday continued on it's merry way and brought to a close one chapter Of the 1926 baseball season when it took tho fourth and deciding game from the Corbin Red Sox in Ken sington yesterday by the score of 3 to 1. Walter Berg, ace of the cham pions of last year, faced tho Ken sington team again in the game, but lis slants no longer hold the mys- tery Of former games and although Kensington far from swampod him under hits, enough Of them were se- cured 10 spell victory.
 It wasn't, however, BerG's pitch ing entirely that gave Kensington a win yesterday but two of the coun- ters were scored after Barnett had musssd up grounders. Barnett kicked four grounders away at short stop. two of them resulting in runs. Bucholz got on three times on CT TOTS by Barnett and the first time, he went to second on wild pitch and scored when Sullick hit to left field. Another gave Patrus a safety and he stole second to ride home on a msty double 10 left by Beeloy. Kensington's first run came in the first on three singles and a sacri- flee.
 Bucholz was primarily the cause of the Red Sox escaping shutout. In the eighth inning. he weakened momcntarily and walked Snyder. Barnett caught hold of a fast one for single through short and Snyder rested on second. Huhand followed with another lusty sock in the same place and Snyder brought in Corbin's only run.
 The game was pitchers battle all the way through. The Red SoX outhit kcnsington nine 10 seven, but Kensington's hits were more op- portunc. IL has been said that of the three teams playing in the series. Kensington is the weakest The team is not credited with having any "murderers' row" but somehow. the hits come when the men are on the sacks.
 1 Three real fielding features, all contributed by Kensington men. stood out in the game. "Yiggs' Pa itrus turned in the first in the fourth inning when he ran away out in right field and tried to take Clancy'S hit. It was Sheehan's ball and Frankie would have caught if had 1 Patlus not been after if. "Iisgs' : had his hands on it after a hard run but the ball got away. Without 1 hesitation, he recovered the ball and threw 10 second to catch Clancy going In. The next was turned in ! by Zcigler in the same inning. Hu- hand clouted one of Bucholz's fast ones into deep left. Zeigler was off with the crack of the bat. The ball sailed far and wide and just as it was going over the ditch In the left garden. Zeigler leaped into the air. stabbed it one hand and came down to land on his back. But he held the ball high for the most spec i tacular catch of the game.
 Another was turned in by Begley in the seventh when Huband cracked one at George Fields. Fields fumblcd land then made a quick throw to first. The ball went inside, very wide, but Begley stabbed his gloved hand over Huband's head and the runner was out by inches. The ac- count of the game. play by play fol- lows:
