 EIGHTH CONTEST

The Piebes A. c. won their eighth straight game at the expense of the Rockville A, c. by 6 wide margin Of 6 to l. Through there were no argumentative decisions the game was hard fought on the part of both teams.
 The PlebeS 0untplaycd their old. CT and more experienced rivals throughout the game. This Adyan- tage apparently meant very little as the younger ball club played smarter and took advantage of every op- portunity available.
 The Plebcs got to Carangelo'S dc. livery in tho second inning by SCOT. ing 6 runs and one run in the fourth. In the sixth inning they earned two runs from Desjardin.
 Joe Runividgc, Plebes, captain and star catcher of the team, suffered . fractured finger and will be out oi the lineup for . few weeks.
 "Babe" Belval pitched exceptional. iy well for the winners, allowing but
