The effort used in keeping the

such as to prevent its use for long

RESOLUTE JRS.
The Score Was 10-3—Win-l
ners Use Three Twirlers
In Game.
Tile fast Bulldog baseball team
was.af!ccted by the hot weather
Tuesday and ran wild, with the
Resolute Jr. team of East Norwnlk
playing the part of the victim. The
Bulldogs. under the fine coaching of
loger Doulons. piled up too runs
and were ready to score some more
when the Roeolutcs left the field in
the ninth inning. The final score
Was 10-8.
The Resoluies prove to be a
heavy hitting nine but did not hit
in tho pinches. Three pitchers were
used by the Bulldogs in a success-
ful attempt to stop the onslaught
of the home team combine. Bar-
doqi started the hurling for tho vis-
itors but gave in when his arm be-
came sore in the third inning. In-
gram was rushed to'the mound and
finally Brennan was sent in to do
the tossing.
Colcs hurled a fine game for tho
Resolutes and had a first class bat-
iery mate in Harry Preston, the
baseball lifel'uard. The Resolutes
played a line game but were ut-
terly outclassed by the “pups." -
Lysobey starred for the "dogs"
by making many spectacular one
hand catches on first base and also
by his line hitting. Gainer and Bar-
ry Preston also hit well, each poling
a pretty double. “Shimmy" Perl-
man. in right field. pulled some sure
homers out of the air. He was
given a hand by the crowd.
310 box score is available due to

SOME baseball statistician has

I am inclined to agree with such a.

the player either as one who thinks
or merely gets rid of the ball by
Throwing it in the general direction
of the infield.
Scores of ball games are lost every

a foolish throw to the plate. there
being no chance to get ills man and
thereby permits a runner who should
have been held to first to advance to
second.
When a runner reaches second he
can usually score on most any kind
