Defeated By New London Independents by Score of 19 to 10 In Swatfest — Brogan Makes First Homer of Local Season. ‘Sunday afternoon at the Falls the team from the Tenth Co. at Fort H. G. 'Wright defeated the All-Norwich team by the score of 4 to 2. All- Norwich outplayed the soldiers on the offense, but weakness in fielding cost them the game. Brooks pitched great ball, holding the soldiers to two hits. ‘With -decent support he would have shut out the Tenth Co. The fort team was composed of good ball players who played nearly perfect ball on the defense, Carroll being the only entrant in the error column. Elkins, because of his conspicuous position, was the star for the soldiers. For Ali-Norwich, Clabby was the star of the game. He got two hits out of four times at bat and pulled off two grandstand catches in the out- field, starting a double play on one of them. Fox at third base appeared to be a find, fielding his position per- fectly and getting two hits at three dollars yorfih i1s burning while you read this advertisement. Is your property insured? B. P.

The Academy dropped another game of 19 to 10. Fitzgerald was no puzzle to the New London lads but their way to victory was made easy by eighteen errors behind Fitzy, every player ex- cept the.rightfielder offending and they only had one chance between them. Counihan started on short and McKnight behind the bat but in the fifth inning they shifted back to their | regular positions at catch and second. The star of the game was Fitzgerald who while pitching as well as could be expected hit safely four times out of five times at bat. Brogan-of New London hit the first ball pitched on the nose and it sailed over Bill Hull's head, through the fence for a home run. New London | scored in every inning except the “lucky” seventh, a triple by D. Shea responsible for two of the scores in | i the sixth. The Academy was way out of its class and were lucky to score as many as they did although they should have held their opponents to a | lower score. The score two runs in | the first inning, Shea passed Brassiil with three men on and W. McGraw dropped a long fly from Meek's bat. They added two more in the fourth as the result of two hits a base on balls and a fielder's choice. The sixth was the big inning for the Academy netting them five runs.
