FARMERS TAKE DUAL
BILL FROM MILLERS
Continued from page one)


Vaughn let it fall into his eye and
had to retire. Hoag took his place
at third. Crisp drew a base on
balls.
The bases were loaded. But
the Farmers couldn't cash in on
the break. Parker struck out and
Taylor grounded out Cannon at
second to Smith at first.
The Mill Boys registered again
in the fourth. Hoag went out
Clark to Crisp. Smith walked and
went to second on a high pitch.
Jarvis whitfield the ozone fruit
lessly, but Swan singled sharply
to left field and Smith crossed
the platter. Manager Bates team
had a 2 to 0 lead.
The Farmers were slow getting
into the game. 1t had begun to
look like three straight wins and
the county championship for the
Mill team. But B. Corpening
gave the Farmers a spark of hope
by driving the ball over the left
field fence for a homer in their
portion of the fourth. But the
yarn twiSters made things look
dark again in the fifth when after
Sargent had famed, High had
hoisted out to Crisp Cannon walk
ed, went to second when Brevard
let A. Vaughn's grounder get
away and scored on Hoag's oneA
base blow.
But the Farmers came back like
a hay barn afire in their half of
the fifth. They put the game on
ice by registering at home plate
3 times and taking a one-run lead
that the thread makers never
could overcome. Clark got a free
ticket to first and stole second
for good measure. Brevard rap
ped out a single and Clark came
home. Brevard went to second
and reached third on a passed ball.
Station tried to bunt and popped
out to Jarvis. Hill went in to
pitch for Green River.
Crisp hit a roller to Cannon
who threw it home and Brevard
was trapped on the third base
line. Crisp went on to second.
Parker singled and Crisp scored as
Parker pulled up at second on the
throw to the plate. Taylor then
singled Parker home with the win
ming run.
Neither team scored after the
fifth. Hill struck out three Farm
ers, Corpening, Capps and Clark,
in the sixth and added Station and
S. Bryson to his strikeout list in
the seventh and eighth respective
ly.
Parker pitched beautiful game,
but ragged support and walked
batsmen kept him in a hole
throughout the game. No less than
10 Green River runners were left
stranded on the bases. Parker's
strikeout victims numbered 9.
Green River played better
brand of defensive ball. The Mil
lers' infield worked harmonious
ly and the outfielders made no
mistakes, but Parker was too good
in the pinches for their heavy hit
tiers. :. E, Z,
The second contest was limited
to seven innings and was featured
by the brilliant pitching and hit
ting of Jackson. Jackson struck
out 10 of the Millers. gave up only
d singles and won his own game
by smashing the ball over left
field Tense in the sixth frame with
two mates aboard. =,
But again Green River scored
first. The thread makers broke
the ice in the third. Hoag singled.
Jarvis was thrown out at first by
Clark, Hoag going to second;
Grassland singled him home and
went on to second and then to
third on some loose infield play.
He scored when C. Jackson bunt-
ed and J. Jackson picked up the
ball and dropped it. ,
The potato growers govt out OF
the dumps and knotted the count
in their share of the third stanza:
Clark struck out. Brevard singled
and stole second. Station then
drove one of Crosland's pitches
over left field fence for a round
trip ticket, registering behind
Brevard.
The count remained deadlock
ed at 2-2 until the sixth. In the
sixth Gibbs went out Cannon to
Pace at first. Taylor isngled. Bry-
son struck out. J. Bryson batted
for Corpening and was safe when
no play was made of his grounder
to short. 1t was a hit. J. Jack
son then hit the ball over the left
field fence for a home run which
scored three tallies and put his
team three markers ahead. Jack
son got a great hand from the
spectators.
Green River threatened in the
ninth. Hoag singled. Erwin bat
ted for Jarvis and hit another one
base blow. Hill, who had relieved
Crosland on the mound, smashed
the ball to Taylor in right field.
Both runners tried to advance
after the catch. But Taylor made
a great throw to third to catch
Hoag sliding into the bag and Sta
ton shot the ball to second in
tiroa to catch Erwin sliding in. 1t
