FREDERICK

The Kent County Band favored us
with a concert last Friday evening
on the lawn of the Delaware Trust
Company. A large and appreciativa
audience was present to welcome
the musicians. The music was fine
and contributed greatly to enjoy
ment of music lovers, who remain
ed until the close of the concert in
spite of the terrific onslaught of the
mosquitoes.
We would be pleased if the band
would repeat the concert in the
near future.
There will be a big game of base
ball here on Saturday afternoon BE-
tween the Gloucester Nationals of
Gloucester, N. j., and the Frederick
team. On Labor Day Edgemoor will
play two games here; one in the
morning and one in the afternoon.
Our team suffered a defeat at
Dagsboro last Friday by a score of
to 8, due to an error of judgment
on the part of the base ball umpire.
Being good sports our management
accepted the decision.
Frederick continued its winning
streak by blanking the Vandever
Club of Wilmington here on Satur-
day afternoon by score of s to 0.
The local team scored all their runs
in two innings. While his team
mates were manufacturing enough
runs to win the contest, POstles, To-
cal hurIer, held the visitors in
check and turned in a creditable
performance on the mound. Long
hurled for the visitors but his weak
support placed him in several bad
spots in Frederica's two big inn
ings.
An error on a play that should |
have retired the side aided Freder-
lea in getting started on their rally |
in the second inning which netted |
them five runs while JacksOn's dOu-
BILE in the fourth paved the way for
more runs.
Come out to the big games on
Saturday and Monday and root"
for the boys.
