On Tuesday night Crediton East
came out and played the locals in a
five innings game and received a good
beating to the tune of 13 to 1. The
visitors infield was a joke and some-
what resembeled.a sieve. afotz pitched
good ball however, but was touched
for 11 hits, while Windsor held Cred-
iton East to five scattered hits; get-
ting into trouble twice, filling up the
bases and -then not letting the next
three batters see the ball seemed to be
his favorite style. Exeter got away
with a seven run lead in the first in-
nings. Crediton East did not score
until the last innings, when the first
man up smashed a two -bagger over
the right field fence and ran followed
with another double. Umpire -Bissett
