The City Hall baseball nine trim- med the Bankers team last evening at St. Mary's field by the score of 6 to b. The game, though there was a preat deal of free hitting in innings, was exciting and close. Toth eams fielded good at times and play- “ly in other innings. The City Hall nine was saved trom beating when Al Schade went into the box, relieving Lampher in the second inning after three runs had heen scored He held the Bankerse| to two runs during his stay on the mound. Smart, the Bankers' twirler, was hit freely throughout the contest, but the City Hall nine lost many opportuni- ties to score by poor base running.

The scorers on the sidelines were kept busy throughout the seven innings chalking up the number of runs that the Gas men were pushing across the plate, and when the game was called by the referee to save the Herald nine further pumishment, the score stood 1b to 2. Easy For Driscoll Driscoll, the Gas Co., twirler, al- though he had pitched the game against the Printers nine the day be- fore, had nothing to do but throw the ball to his catcher to see the Herald batsmen swing and connect with the empty air. He used Carl Mays deliv- ery throughout and puzzled the bat- ters with his wicked slants. Awful Exhibition The Herald infleld might just as well have stayed home for all the good they did stopping grounders, and the outfielders seemed to think that they were standing in the outer gar- dens to watch the grass grow green, Hennessey, the Herald twirler, was the redeeming feature of that shattered nine. He pitched a mighty fine game for the length of time that he was in the box, but he was absolutely all alone in his attempts to retire the op- posing batsmen. Gas Men Play Well The Gas Co., team, on the othet hand, backed up their pitcher by get- ting everything that came their way. Jim Lynch, the battle scarred veteran of many bygone battles on the dia- mond, showed the way to the younger members of the team by stealing sec- ond and third in one inning. In Memoriam . There is an air of mourning in the Herald plant today over the loss of that little semblance of baseball that existed some time ago. The result of the game should be to have the Herald nine change their entire lineup and give the girls a chance. The Herald's two runs were scored by Crean who poled out two circuit clouts whigh came without anybody on. Batteries — Gas Co., Driscoll and Robinson; Herald, Hennessey, Crean and Lawson.

HARD GAMES AHEAD Local High School Baseball Nine to Meet Strong Nincs Within the Next Few Days—Hartlord Here Tuesday, The local High school baseball nine has been putting in a stiff week of practice in preparation for the hard games they will have within the next few days. The local boys have been set back in the last three games which they have played, but they ex- pect to put across wins in their re- maining games. Tomorrow afternoon, the nquad will play the St. Thomas' Semjnary nine at Elizabeth Park, Hartford. The Hartford lads have been going at a fast clip this season, having won every game that they have played. 'They beat the fast Croshy High school nine from Waterbury last Saturday, and when the locals stack up against them they will meet with one of the best teams that they have on their schedule this year. The local lads are confident, however, that they can break the Hartford lads’ winning streak and they are out to bring home the bacon tomorrow. Coach George Cassidy has had his squad out for practice every evening, correcting their faults. He has been witheut the services of two of his best men on account of ineligibility, but he expects to have them in the lineup again. Saturday afternoon, the local .team will stack up against the South Manchester High school team on the St. Mary’'s diamond. The first game between these two resulted in a win for the locals. Memorial Day, the Hartford High nine will play the local team at St. Mary's fleld. The local lads have been looking forward to this game ever since the season opened up, and they are out to win it if they never win another. The Hartfordites de- feated the locals in Hartford at their first meeting, but they will stack up against a different team at St. Mury's field next Tuesday. A record erowd is expected to see this game, and there will be plenty of rooting coming with the Hartford nine. Coach Cas- sidy will have his best lineup on the field and his charges will be in fight- ing trim for the battle.

Greb Starts Farly Greb started against Tunney in his usual whirlwind fashion and mussed up the New Yorker's countenanes with sharp hooks and long swings be- fore the contest was many rounds ¢ld. Greb opened a cut on Tunney'§ nose and gut both his eyes. Then Tunnay slowed the Pittsburger for a spéll with hard hody punches. Recuperating quickly, Greb launeh. ed assault after assult for the head and body and while his punches were not as hard as those sent by Tunney, they were in the majority. The “beay. cat'" was always on top of his op- ponent and was the aggressor in most of the rounds.

There is little chance that Jack Dempsey will ever fight either Wil- lard or Wills on Jersey soil. The New Jersey State Athletic commission stated yesterday that while no offi- cial action had been taken on the matter the efforts of certain pro- moters were very much out of order. “Willard,"” said Commissioner Mes- sano, “is much too old—oven, and no match for the champio there does net seem any gef public sentiment for a meeting tween Dempsey and Wills.
