The scores Sunday ran high and the lead- ing Sluggers were given a walloping by the fast Emeralds. In dauble header the Trimmers and East Ends split even. The first game the East Ends were victorious bianking Woodmansee's team, but they lost the second 10 to 6. ‘Wright pitched the best game of his ;career in the City League in the first igame and nearly hung up on a no-hit \Tecord. He obtained 12 strikeouts and had perfact control. In the second game the Trimmers showed good speed and started to score early in the game. The Emeralds added another victory 18 thelr iint 'gnu?:y m{’e defeating the uggers on the Cranberry by the score of 7 to. The Emeralds are out to beat the Sluggers' record of ten straight games and have already won five straight games 80 far.

Taking advantage of this fact, about ‘steen hundred tiilarious fans started e In o "hel:md." i save sucl to be and théy gave the old town a 8ood time in celebra- tion of the victory. In 8o celebrating it was thomndz quite Decessary and proper to spend good money for colore and for horns, fifes and other noise-pr instruments; hence it Dbecame patent to the fe citizens that had staved at home the Putnam outfit had made good. This was a very correct and proper surmise. Putnam did win—an 11-inning con- test that looked lost to the locals in the early stages of the pastime, but which, through the many ups and downs of fortune and misfortune for each team and the final steadying of the local agsregation, fnally developed into & hard-won glorious victory, to 5. Four hundred rooters that went over to Southbridge on the special train run out of this city and half as many more who went over in automobiles broke loose with a bedlam of noise when at the end of the 1ith inning Gallagher, in left fleld for Putnam, ulled down the last long drive off the $at ‘ot ‘@ Southbriaz hitter and with it the serles that has created more ‘baseball excitement than Putnam has known in the past 20 years. Local fans who had the courage to back the team with thelr cash as well as their opinions came home with a nice little bundle of Southbridge money, and, needless tQ say, were supremely hap- Py The winning of the Southbridge se- ries is rated Putnam’s greatest base- ball accomplishment, for the beaten team is one of the fastest, cleanest and Classiest baseball teams in southern New England today, really an aggre- Twirls Good Game — gation of semi-professional and pro- fessional players, uuder the direction of Slim Mcintyre, formerly of Nor- Jrich. The victory was a real one, and in coralling the organization that was able to win it Manager Teddy Cassent Put Putnam on the baseball map. It was not until the 1ith inning that Putnam could put over the winning punch. Gallagher, the first man up, Teached first when Cooney booted his o unana | wumonononowns | aoa drive to short. Santoni laid down a |Putnam bunt at the plate. Gilson threw to Cooney to catch Gallagher, but the Putnam flelder slid into secona base, causine Cooney to drop the ball. With two men on bases and no one out, the Putnam rooters went wild with en- thusigsm. Tin horns and rattles set the field In_an uproar, while the Southbridge fans sat in gloom. L'Heureux, who had played grand ball in the ‘series, doubled into deep left, scoring Gallagher, while Santoni stobped at third on account of ground rules covering hits into the crowd. Captain Fallon, next up, grounded to Vernon, who shot the ball over to Commette. Santoni was caught be- tween third and home and was run down, L'Heureux coming down to third on the play. Gagnon hit a long fly out to Galdu, but L'Heurefix was able to make the sprint home from third, beating the throw in. Paige ended the inning by fanning. Southbridge could not score in their half of the inning, though one long drive into right field put a man on second for them and gave the de- parting fans some hope for a brief period. Putnam's pitcher goes into the rec- ords of the game as Bushnell. The name served its purpose as well as any other. “Bushnell,” however, is said to be on the reserve list Of hurlers of the New York American league club. He aidn't look real good to the locals in the first inning, when Southbridge touched up his delivery for three clean hits, one of them a double, and he dldn't look much better during the next two or three innings, but then he began to come across with the goods. As the game lengthened he grew better and in the last stages of it had the FINANCIAL AND COMMERGIAL SATURDAY’'S MARKET. Fhere Was a General Decline on Com- paratively Light Dealings. WNew York, Aug. 7.—Strength ebbed &way from the stock market today and there was a general decline on com- paratively light dealings. The de- mand increased sensitiveness to pres- sure, th none of the confident buy- ing o e earlier part of the week. In the first hour weakness developed in &pots, but otherwise the market held up fairly well until heaviness appeared among the railroads. Then the whole list gave way, forcing prices below yes- terday’s close.” Last quotations show- ed frequent losses of one to three points. Total sales 'were 330,000 shares. * War stocks were most vulnerable to pressure, as was to be expected in view of their protracted rise. The de- cline was orderly, however, with no evidence of urgent or excited selling. Sentiment was not greatly affected by the change in the tenor of trading, aud the recession was ascribed generally to alteration of viewpoint concerning the position of the market. In con- sequence of the large gains made dur- ing the week it was regarded as only natural that there should be a ten- dency to take profits. Notwithstanding 'the general trend, efforts to mark up quotations of the war shares met with temporary suc- cess in a few instances. Crucible Steel was the leader in this movement. 1t rose four points to & new high rec- ord at 92 3-4. ' Record prices were made also by General Motors, which advanced 11 3-8 to 207, and Willys- Overland, which rose 7 1-2 to 148 3-4. Bethlehem Steel was quieter than heretofore, making only a emall gain. All these stocks fell back on the gen- eral decline. The widest break was in Bethlehem Steel, which lost 10 1-2 on the day. Heaviness of railroad ehares was one of the most discouraging aspects of the situation to traders on the long side, who counted on the increasing eamings of the carriers as a con- structive influence. Norfolk and West- ern’s June gross earnings increased $686,000, and net earnings’ $452,000. Canadian Pacific was comparatively strong on reports that the usual divi- dend would be declared next week. The bond market was easy. Total sales, par value, $1,480,000. United States fours coupon declined 1 1-4 on call on the week. 8TOCKS.

George Sisler, the former Michigan star, worked against Johnson for the Browns ana proved very effective after the first inning, but received poor sup- port.

Pitcher Davenport of .the Sloufeds proved himself a real “iron man” when he pitched a double header againet the Buffeds, holding them to five hits 18 innings. Hans Wagner is now said to be “playing the game of his life” His batting and flelding are eetting Pitts- burg pencilmen to writing nice things about him. Fitchburg fans claim their team is used as a dumping ground by the Lynn club for cast-offs. The attendance is falling off because the team is shap- ing up poorly. Clark Griffith tried out a new out- fielder named Kopp from the Canadian league. The youngster made a fa- vorable impression. He made a hit and scored a run.

The White Sox once tried him out, but turned him back, If things pan out according to Hugh Jennings' predictions, the White Sox will soon slip out of the race.

He has been hitting both hard and often. Sisler, the collegian who recently Joined the Browns, is getting plenty of opportunity to prove his worth. Rickey has used him in the box, in the infleld and in the outfield. Catcher John Henry of Washington is not hitting very hard, but he has ‘been doing a lot of timely stick work for the Nationals. Incidentally he is doing the best catching of his career. With Cree, Caldwell dnd Hartzell to call on, Wild Bill Donovan is now well supplied with pinch ers.

He wears spectacles while playing and stfll hits the ball hard. A Ed. Konetchy has been a big factor in the success of the Pittsburgh Feds this season.
