Harrington High Again Champions;
, Home Runs Assist With Victory
Harrington High by a decisive
victory over Caesar-ROdney High
School, on their diamond, became
champions in their section; they
having won five of the six games on
their schedule; beating Dover High
out for the honOrs by half a game
in the percentage column, due to
Dover having one tie game on their
schedule.
Several hundred local fans fol-
lowed the team expecting to see a
hard fought struggle but in a very
short time after the game was start
ed, heavy stick work on the part of
Harrington soon put the game on ice.
ShObe led with the stick, getting five
hits out of six trips to the plate.
Locates and Short each got their
usual home run. Seven runs crossed
the pan in the fourth inning.
The first tally for Caesar Rodney
was made when Fifer caught one of
Halls fast ones on the nose and
drove it to deep right center field.
A perfect relay of the ball home
would have caught him at the plate
by yards, but Short dropped the ball.
Harrington played like real cham
pions both at the bat and in the
field. They touched the delivery of
Fifer and Knight for a total of
twenty-four hits. Every member of
the team getting at least one hit.
Final arrangements have not yet
been completed to determine when
the three game series will be started
for the northern section honors. In
dications are that Symrna High will
be their opponents.
