at the home of Mr. and

spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. C. | safeties, three of them by Earl Gray,
who certainly saved the Braves from
a certain loss.
As usual the Kincardine park re
sembled a back-woods wilderness.
However, both teams played pretty
good ball on it, mainly because one
team was striking out at bat and the
other couldn’t connect hard. After
three scoreless innings the Hurons
broke the ice with one in the fourth.
Somers opened with a single and Dor
an, trying to sacrifice, popped out.
Somers stole second as Rae was be
ing fanned but Gray doubled down
the left-field f.oul line to score his fel
low fielder. Bob Thompson dropped
Peterson’s high pop fly and there
were men on third and second. A hit
here would have won the game but
Cumming hit back to the box and was
tossed out. 1 • •< 1 : •
After going hitless, as well as tun
less for six frames the Lakesiders
scored a pair in the seventh. Parker
opened with a looper over second jtist
out of Somers’ reach. Thompson then
lined a long one to left on which Rae
made a nice catch. Morgan then earn
ed himself brackets by dropping a
triple just inside the right-field foul
line, scoring Parker. Anderson’S sin
gle to left ended the Kincardine scor-,
ing as Bill Lediet took care of the
next two batters at third. Bill con
tinued playing good ball with four
hard chances at the hot corner.
Somers was called out on strikes
to open the ninth with the Braves still
one run down and things didn’t look
very bright, the way Pollard was go
ing. But Doran lifted Huron hopes a
bit by whaling a hard double to left.
Rae could only pop to third and Gray
was up with two out. With first base
open and a hot batter at the plate,
strategy called for an intentional
pass, but the Lakesiders elected to
play Earl and the latter obligingly
dropped a single over second tying
up the game. Tap was tossed out at
Campbell. Miss Evelyn Campbell re
turned with them for a month’s holi
days.
Miss Lenora M. Higgins, nurse-in
training at Victoria Hospital, Lon
don, is at present spending three

GREAT PITCHING
AS WINGHAM -
KINCARDINE
For
TIE
Hurlers Superb As Teams Play Ten
Innings to 2-A11 Tie.
In as fine a pitching duel as has
been seen in the league for years0 the
Wingham and .Kincardine ball teams
hooked up in a ten-inning thriller at
the latter place last Wednesday. The
final result was a ten-inning tie, the
teams failing to break a 2-all dead
lock as darkness fell. Tom Pollard
for Kincardine and Hugh Cummings
for the Hurons, both turned in such
Sterling efforts it would be unfair to
call 'one better than the other. Tom’s
was perhaps the more spectacular, the
young right-hander being possessed
of a blazing fast ball on this partic
ular day, good enough to fan eighteen
Hurons. On the other hand, Cum
ming, behind very good support turn
ed in a startling e£fdft,. allowing but
three hits, all of them in one inning.
The Hurons nicked Pollard for five
a short
: i
second trying to advance on
pass ball. . > , - • ,
Kincardine tailed to get a man oil
base in the last two frames
best the Braves could do was leave
Peterson stranded after the manager
had got a life on an error to start the
tenth. It was then too dark to start
another inning.
