 West Hartford Crew

defense gave the Eddy-Glover post baseball team shut-out win over the Hayes-Velhage nine of West Hartford in the Legion circuit last night. The game, played in the fast time of one hour and twenty-five minutes, took place at Walnut Hill park and ended with the locals on the long end of a to score.
 Sammy Capodice was given rhe pitching assignment last night and Larry Mangan could not have en- trusted the hurling duty to better hands. Sam was stingy with his blows. His fast t-breaking curves had the West Hartford sluggers swinging wildly and during the nine innings but two lone singles, widely scat tered, were registered off the New Britain ace.
 Capodice got off to a splendid stlrt and only an even dozen batters faced him in the first four sessions. Roger Sperry, the second batter to face him in the fourth, was the only man to reach first base during this period and he died before he reached the third sack.
 During the evenings entertain. ment, for it was all of that from a local angle, only one West Hart fordite reached third base, Ellsworth gained the dizzy corner by. means of a pretty steal in the first half of the eighth inning. This did not neIp the cause of The invaders, however.
 Although the local twlrler out shone his opponent, krebs who was tossing them up for the ltayes-Vel- haze outfit, the latter was by no means ineffective. He held the locals at bay for the first five cantos and but for lapse in ,he sixth, when the Manganmen punched i've hits to push across faelr only runs, the game might have gona into ovarrme innings. He showed some splen lid pitching in the fifth when with the bases loaded. he famed C'Britn for the third out.
 The game got off to d fast start and neither team WAS able to break into the scoring column for the first five sessions. The sto'n broke in the last half of the sixth nnalng after the West Hartford nins had bc,n re- tired.
 Capodice. first up, singled into center field. Schmarr followed with single into left, Capodice stopping at third. The local first sacker took second on the next play and My narski was retired on hoist to third base. Miller, speedy center fielder, stepped to the plate and proved to be the hero of the game when he singled sharply through second base and scored both his team mates. Miller tallied a moment later when Zembroski tripled into left field. The locals scoring stopped whrn Zembroski went home on a passed ball. The side was retired shortly after Curylo had singled when Wo- ieck hit into double play.
 From that point on both teams were powerless and no further scoT- ing resulted.
 The defense of both teams was brilliant throughout. Russell Sperry West Hartford left fielder made two splendid running catches in the fourth inning, the first on a foul fly and the second a long liner by Schmarr. This latter catch was one of the most brilliant plays ever made on a local diamond. Sperry raced o1- nf of tho hall moot ing the bat and shared the pellet with a leap as the ball was about to drop into the crowd that was wit messing a game on the second iia- mond. Sczepanik was stone wall in the West Hartford infield aud took park in three double killings.
 Baylock. Zembroski and Curlvo were the leading stickcrs for the locals while the last mentioned played fine game at second base The summary:
