MILFORD PLAYER HAS
HITTING REPUTATION
lconLInned nom Plrst Pagei

In July. Mickey collected eight
hits in a dOuble-header. coming up
with two hOmers. three doubles. two
triples and a single. Such extra base
wallOping as that cant be over
looked.
Later in the season. he nailed three
doubles. a triple and single in FIVE
trips to the pan during a single
game.
The league records are generously
dotted with games that Mickey broke
up for his team. A home run with
one on base turned the tide in a game
against DuntOn, and on another Occa-
sion his double produced the only
run in the contest to defeat Sea
Cliff.
Mickey inherits some of his base
ball prOwess, for his father played in
the old Connecticut League in the
days of handle bar mustachiOs and
nickel stems.

mann has the latent possibilities and
this season may bring them out. He

against powers, against the rulers OF
the darkness of this world, against
spiritual wickedness in high places.
The lesson-sermon also includes
the following passages from the

mental assassin, who. in attempting
TO rule mankind, tramples upon the
divine Principle Of metaphysics, for
God is the only power. The
wicked man is not the ruler OF his
