Locals Open The Maitland Sched

" The classy Blyth squad were too
much for Lucknow’s young Maitland
team here on Saturday and handed
the locals a 17 to 4 setback in the
season opener, - ,
The local lads have a lot to le^ai
-but right. here we venture to ipi
C"4’, .

experience, by mid-season they
should be dishing up a brand of ball,
i that will make any of their oppon

• With Elliott Carruthers, not yet
passed on. He wit sick and “Toby ’’
Greer’s arm bothering him, the big
probleift confronting Roy ' Finlayson,
was who to" pitch. So Bill MacKenzie,
a left hander got the chance to.
pitch the first. game of ball of his
.career. He was plainly nervousi and.
the Blyth boys got to his offerings
for 5 hits, plus- 3 walks and ’ two
errors—for-8—runs—Bill—settled-'down-
in the second frame and held the
visitors scoreless; 4
Greer took the mound for the re
maining five innings. Blyth kept pick
ing away, scoring 3 rims, in the 3rd,
4 in the 4th and 2 in the 7th.
The Sepoys were a bit jittery, and
“ contributed 10 erors, which was a big
factor in their downfall../as well as
their failure to hit with runners oii-
the pathway and 12’men were left
stranded. At "that they clouted out
12 hits, 5 of them good for extra
bases.
Lucknow got 2 runs in the first
inning. Jack MacDonal<T hoisted to
1st. Bill Jewitt cracked out a double,
and Greer got* a similar smash , to
drive him in. Jack Fisher struck out
and Greer pilfered 3rd ' and came
home on Elliott Webster’s single.
Leonard MacDonald whiffed.
Harold Greer led off with a single
in the 3rd and Jack Fisher poled one
over the fence for 3 bases, but died
’ there as Webster and Charlie Jewitt
fanned and MacDonald flied to 1st.
Lucknow’s 4th run came in . the
7th. Bud Thompson rolled to 3rd and
went to second on a bad peg. Web
ster drove him in with a two-baggei*
Bob MacKenzie drew a pass "and
Ritchie singled^ to fill the bases. Alex
Macintosh rolled to the box forcing
-Webster- at-the plate and Jaek Mc-
Donald struck out. . .
Gray, Blyth’s first, sagger, got a
pair of singles and a double in 4
official times at baL “Chubby”
Rouse, was the heavy cfouter for
the , visitors although he, went hit-
