Meanwhile | Meriden was supporting Kline in | fine style, hitting the ball hard, and taking advantage of cvery error to score a crushing 15-3 victory over [ the locals. It was one of the largest scores rolled up in the Meriden-New Britain serics in recent years. A re- cord crowd was present at the game | which promised to be a great battle Letween two evenly matched teams but after the third inning intercst in the battle died down and the crowd was rooting for the New Brit- ain team to score at least one run. Kline was on the mound for the Meriden nine and pitched a wonder- [7 ful game, After being touched up for two doubles in the first inning the Meriden twirler settled down and did not allow another bingle until the seventh. In all he allowed but five [ hits ana sent 11 men back to the beneh via the strikeout route.
