EVEN BREAK i DECORATION DAY i CAPE KAY VINS IN ELEVENTH ' Tiinelj Bits tike Second ContestBoth Teams Plaj Great Ball 1 On Decoration Day the Oape May . team and Court House Independents r treated the fans to two of the most Interesting games seen here this year, Court House winning tbe morning con1 test by a score of 7 to 6, while Cape ' May took tbe afternoon battle 2 to 1 t in eleven innings. Tbe Independents are the strongest aggregation that f have appeared here and put up an ex9 cellent game, both contests being any- ~ one's until tbe last man was out. The teams divided about even on errors 9 in the morning, but Court House lead - with the stick. Madden being the 9 premier bitter getting four in five ' times up. Oape May showed tbe best t on bases. The [local team filled the sacks in tbe ninth but were unable - to*score.| Nicbols and Little pitched ' for Otpe May. . j The afternoon contest was marked by sharp fielding on both aidea, but e Oape May had the best of tbe batting - end, Dudley Moore leading with three t hits. Hines was .on tbe rubber and pitched splendid ball, allowing but • five bits. Court House scored in the B first inning but could not make the cir6 cuit during the next ten, although they y looked dangerous several times. In the second, with one down, they made e three singles in succession, filling the - bags, but Hies pulled himself out of a - bad hole .in great shape. Oape May . scored in the fourth and eleventh. • Stacy Robbins opened the eleventh with a corking two bagger to center. >, Nichols and Entriken sacricfied, and a Moore then brought thejerowd to tiiair - feet howling with delight by making t, his third hit driving in tbe winning a run. Court House also got busy in >. the eleventh. Madden was safe on an n error, but was.immediately thrown out e at second by Shields. J. Ambrose n tanned but get to first on dropped ball. Jeknins out, fly to Moore. Scull then t, connected and got the .first hit for , Court House after the second inning. ;• Two on base. A. Freidman drove a hot grounder to Nichols, who threw him if out at first, and the suspense was over, e ending tne best game^o! the season. Freidmen pitched tbe entire twenty n inning for Court House, i- Tbe same teams will probably play y again next Saturday afternoon.
