A care, fnl checking up of the dope hook after Fred's brilliant feat disclosed the fact that neither major nor minor league annals hare any record of such a contest. There are sereral Instances of extra-inning, no-hit games, lint no reference to a game in which both aides went hltless. A peculiar coincidence disclosed by the search through the records is that on May 10, 1909, eight years ago almost to the day. Toney pitched and won a seTenteen-lnnlng, no-hit game for Winchester agalnat Lexington. Zt was this marvelous Job that brought Toney to the notice of the Cabs, who gaTe him his first big learn trial, and it was at the expenae of hie former benefactors that Toney again enteredbaseball'a hall of fame as the first pitcher in history to win a game that failed to disclose a blow for either team nntil after nine ronnds had been played:

What record the Galllgans had has been smeared with defeat blotches until it resembles the score the Murleys goL last Sunday. Not that they haven't a fast team, only "eagle eye" fan savs that there ain't a team in that bis town that can beat ours." so there is nothing to do but take "eagle eye's" word for it and conclude that the Galileans is one of the teams "eagle eye" refers to.
