The game was the first in a series of five games be- tween the two teams. Berg, the Cor bin twirler. could not be reached by the kensingtonians, the locals get ting only two hits. one of which was scratch hit. kensington gave a fine exhibition of fielding and support to their pitcher who was hit freely throughout the game. "Yiggs" Pa trus, second sacker who was injured in the Meriden Endes game. was back at the keystone sack, playing his old game with his splendid form. The New Britainites played a fast game.
