CAPE MAY WINS 1 I ONE-USES ONE I . BALL CLUB DEFEATS BLACK 1 » SOX OF NEWTON COAL CO, } BUT LOSES 'TO DELANCO on WEDNESDAY, IN A SLUGFEST. ( f The Cape May Ball Club had its ' t ups and downs last week- On Monr day, it defeated the Newton Coal ' ^ Co.'s Black Sox, by a score of 8-3, ' " but on Wednesday the Capes suffer- ' ' ed their third reverse of the year 4 when the Delanco team battered 1 " their way. to >a 13-10 victofy. Monday's game dre^ a record 1 '• crowd, as is 'always the case when * any of the colored teams of the • * Newton Coal Co. play. The visitors - started off with a bang", in the first r frame, scoring three runs when Gra- J 4 ves, Newton's star second baseman, * tripled to right field. Cape May . 3 came back with two in their half of 1 the opener, and secured a lone tall$ ? in the fourth. After these, skirmish- T > es, both teams settled down and were r * unable to score until the seventh, I when Cape May with their custom - ' ary seventh inning rally, crossed the j r rubber three times.- Howell led off '■ in the seventh, securing his base , on % * the short-stop's error: He advanced ' -to third on Holmes' double', to center, but was caught in, a vain attem.pt to stretch another 'base- Lemmons sinc gied to center, scoring Holmes, \and * advancing to second- Lemmon scored when Crawford tripled to right field4 Crawford came home when Ewinghit to the shortstop, who fumbled. In ' the eighth, Cape May scored two 5 more. The splendid pitching of Ew5 ing held Newton scoreless after the first inning. The homg team was not so fortunate in Wednesday's game- . After * twice putting the game on ice, Cfipe May fell/flat" in the ninth, allowing , the visitors to accumulate five- Scott led in the hjtting, with a triple' and , two singles, while Frankie Shields ^ secured a triple and one single- Each 4 ieitm secured an equal number of , hits Vid errors, but the visitors some how got away with three more. runs, . and that, in the last analysis, is what counts. , - ' r •* COUNTY CHAMBER i i MEETSJEPT, 15 ?
