After vainly trying to defeat the lo- cal bluecoats for two seasons, the Meriden police baseball team asccom- plished the “feat'’ yesterday after- noon at Hanover Park. The score was 7 to 2, The Silver City team had a pitcher namer Baer, «nd he proved to be & “Bear” with his slants. He al- lowed the locals six widely scattered hits, and sent 15 alleged batsmen back to the bench viz the whiff route. Del. Veley managed to get a three bagger, but the infants back of him could not produée a slam that would aid the hard working shortstop to dent the platter. Baer was very steady, allowing but one compliment- ary ticket to the initial sack. Pete Cabelus was in good form also, al- lowing his opponents seven hits. He struckout 9 batsmén, tnd ticketed two men to first base. The lecals made six errors, the flelding being weird at times, Meriden cops' made seven bungles, but tney usually hap- pened when no damage followed. Bill Souney in the fleld, had two chances and he missed both of them. The local team was accompanied to the Silver City by & large delegation of “fans’” the banquet that followed the contest appealing to most of them. Billy Grabeck, who resigned from the police force many, many moons ago, played third base for the locals. The score: NEW BRITAIN ab Feeney, cf. M......5 O'Mara, c. . Veley, sa. .. Souney, rf. cf. ...
