The Clayton Baseball Club split
their weekend bill losing on Satur-
day to Harrington, 3 to 2, in IA inn
ings. Hall, on the mound for Clay
ton, was in rare form but was
nosed out in the 14th inning. Gray
and Sevil led the hitting for Clay
ton while Morris was best for Har-
rington. Clayton club met with
another unfortunate accident in
this game. Frank Montague, fleet
outfielder, broke his leg sliding
into second base. He was rushed
to Kent General Hospital where
the bones were set and leg placed
in cast. He will be out for re-
mainder of season. This is the
third player in two weeks to be out
with leg injuries. Mag has a
broken leg and Taylor, badly
sprained knee. On Sunday Sevil
was in rare form and turned back
the Massey, Md, Club, 6 to 1.
Harris, on the mound for Massey,
was wild in first inning allowing
three runs to score but after the
first improved very much and
game developed into a pitchers
battle. Messick was the outstand-
ing man for Clayton while Pass
waters and Haley was best for the
losers. On Saturday the strong
Harrington club will play at Clay
ton. Harrington and Clayton are
very evenly matched and a good
game should result. On Sunday a
strong club will be seen at Clayton
in Worth Steel. Worth has a fine
ball club and should make a fine
showing.
