,Spe‘akins tof Sportls The high school baseball team came through finally with a ven. geance, Playing at Bt. Mary's field yesterday afternoon against Lewis high of Southington, the team went to it with a vengeance and smacked out hit after hit. 7 As each player strode to the plate, it appeared that he was thinking something like these terms *“Who suid we couldn't hit.” 8macko and Qut the ball sailed. If the team was hitting hard in its first three games but hitting them where they are, they certainly started yesterday to hit them “where they ain't” and the result was a 12 to 1 victory. The team faces two more hard games this week against Suffield and St. Thomas, but now that the batting eyes have been peeled, both games mean nothing to be feared. Buffield and 8t. Thomas are strong, there is ne question about that, but the local high school team is also atrong and it will be a question of the “better team winning.” Local baseball teams are getting ready for a busy week-end. All of the clubs have outlined practice ses- sions for SBaturday afternoon and there will be plenty of life in the workouts, The Burritts will practice tdmor- row night at Walnut Hill park from + 7 to 9 o'clock and all members of last year's team and any candidates wishing to try out for places, are asked to turn out.

HIGH SCHOOL COMES OUT OF ITS BATTING SLUMP Crashes Through to 14 to 1 of Southington—Entire Victory Over Lewis High Team Is Inspired by Beau- tiful Pitching of Linnehan — Opponents’ One Run Comes in Seventh Inning—Fourteen Players Used in Game—Play Two More This Weck. Inspired by the beautiful pitching of Linnehan substitute twirler, the New Britain High baseball team suddenly came out of its batting slump and crashed the ball to all corners of 8t. Mary's field yesterday afternoon to score a one-sided vic- | tory over the Lewis High nine of Southington by a 14 to 1 score. The locals, who previous to the game, had made but four hits in three games. found the offerings of Snow- man for 12 safeties, including three | doubles and a triple. ‘With two hard encounters schedul- ed for the week-end with Suffield and 8t. Thomas', Coach Cassidy de- cided to bank his fate oh Linnehan und his fondest hopes were realized as the substitute pitcher came through the battle with flying colors. | He allowed but five hits and sent nine men back to the bench via the strikeout route. He showed remark- able control and was never in dan- | ger. The only Southington run came n the seventh inning when a double and a single resulted in Nelson crossing the plate. Behind this pitching, the locals could not be denied and the bats which had been practically "silent vince the beginning of the seagon, rang out with vengeance. It was a new expericnce for the locals and they more than made up for their previous games. Rooters of the Red & Gold are confident that the team has at last found itself and will an- riex many more victories before the curtains arc drawn for the season. Pushing over one run in the opening inning, the locals put the game in the bag in the second inning by rending five counters over the plat- ter. They picl:od up a run in the third and fifth innings and added six more tallies in the seventh and eighth to malke the battle a complete walk- away. The locals backed up their of- fensive attack with a strong defense and only made two errors. Four- | teen men were given a chance to| show their wares in the game by Coach Cassidy. | Potts, Schmarr and Partyka led their mates 1n batting, crashing out | two hits aplece. Wesoly banged cut | the longest hit of the game, & three bagger. Nelson was the hest bet for the losers, getting two of his team's five hit Friday the locals will meet Suf- | field Prep. here and will jgurney to Hartford Saturday for a return game with 8t. Thomas'. ‘The summary: NEW BRITAIN HIGH SCHOOL " ol 0 " I 1 0 ) ol 1 i ol ¢ | Partyka, 8 Wesoly, ef Bogdans!, Potts, 1b Mangan, c 8chmair, . rf Osipowlez, 1t Clark, 2o .
