Despite the score, the game •-produced one heartening feature from the standpoint of local fans —the hurling of Midget Don Wells. The young mound artist went the distance against the power­ ful Legionaires, allowing them only seven hits and two earned runs. Five errors in the field gave Mitchell the big lead. Bob Sadler was the winning pitcher. He held the locals score­ less until the seventh when suc­ cessive bingles by Darling and Holtzman set the stage for a counter. Bert White was Mitchell’s star of the win. The aging second baseman played a flawless field­ ing game and batted a perfect two for two in the bargain. Harry Holtzman hit a double and a single in three tries for the locals. Bob Wade swung two for four, including a triple. Both teams manipulated a double play in the first inning to prevent any scoring. Mitchell produced two raps in each of the second and third innjngs after two were out. In each case a ^miscue in the field prevented Wells from retiring the side without a count. Mitchell earned one run out of two in the fourth, earned another in the fifth, and added two more in the eighth. Hot And Cold It was a hot and cold season for the locals from start to fin­ ish.
