VISITORS CRACK LONG'S CURVERS FOR 9JMRKERS Herbie Logan Shows SemiPro Players Way in Hitting Line Long Fails to

, Deliver. V Cambridge, 9; Richmond, 6. This story is continued from the first of the season. Richmond lost again, this time to the battlers wearing the colors of Cambridge City by the loose score of 9 to 6. Outflelding and outhittlng the locals Cambridge had a merry time with the offerings of Chic Lons. who attempted to bring home Richmond's first victory in the I. S. L. Chic started the fireworks after getting by the first inning when he planked Aug amidship in the second round. "Sheeney" took first. Then Snyder tried to outmaraton the pellet off the bat of Helmund the next hitter and made himself obnoxious to the fans by lngloriously mussing up the play. Helmund was safe. Manager Baumgartner chose this time as the best to send his team off to the lead and belted one to left on which Aug scored. Harding helped the cause along by pushing out a Texas leaguer over Shrimper's head and two more of the enemy crossed the pan. Again in the third the visitors were boosted along by the helping hand of the locals. Chic again grew generous and Issued Williams free transportation to first. Williams went to second on Winger's blow to left and continued to third on Aug's hit. Helwig who was used in Hampton's place let a passed ball get by him on which Williams tallied. Winger Steals Heme. Winger in the meantime had reached third and made as clean a steal of home as could be wished. He is given credit for a run as he crossed the plate ahead of the ball which Helmund knocked to Cushlng for the third out. The fourth saw the undoing of Long although his support had quite a little -..to dowithjt. To Bay that the support w'a'irjyild would be putting it mildly. PopklniTmessed up one which let down the wrath of local fans on his head. This upset Chick andthe visitors w'th four safeties one of them. a double by Williams netted four moreruns. These were all they marked up as Bar con was pulled from right field. He let them down with only two hits the rest of the game which ended in the last half of the eighth. Bacon in the short time he was on the mound showed more stuff than any heaver Kenney has put in this season, having a nice "spitter," abundance of quick breaks and the good old control. - -The locals fastest round came in the fourth. Helwig startedd it by pasting one too hot for Harding and was safe on first. Cushlng followed with a blow to right, Helwig going to third, Logan scratched an infield hit Helwig scoring and then "Lefty" Joe Bulla was inserted into the lineup, batting for Long and lifted one to right which fell safe between Winger, Helmund and Baumgartner, the two men on bases scoring and Lefty getting credit for a double. Schrimper Ends Rally. Schrimper ended the rally when after getting safely to first on Winger's error he was called out in attempting a theft of second. The Umpire should have been chased for making the decision. From the grandstand it appeared as though Shrimper was never touched by the ball but rather booted from the baseline by one Helmund. Kenney's men tallied one in the third, fifth and eighth innings. About the only features of the game was the nice headwork used by Fenton, Richmond's new left gardener in backing up third in the second inning which prevented the visitors from scoring and Winger's theft of home and the batting and base running of Logan. The Earlham Star, playing his first game with Richmond, batted like champion, smacking out four safe ones out of as many times us, one good for two sacks. Fenton also looked nice to the followers, playing his garden in faultless style and doing what few have shown, namely headwork. Score and summary: RICHMOND. A.B. R. H. P.O. A. E.

GRAYS BINGLE BALL

New Paris had an easy time with

the Ansonia boys at New Paris yes

terday, with Pete Minner of the VI-

grans in the box.

Minner let them down with four

measley hits, while his teammates were supporting him in faultless style

and he got by with, a 7-to-0 victory.

The Grays had their batting clothes on again, bingling on twelve diferent occasions. Hoggy Lucas led with two screaming doubles. Ansonia's right

fielder was the only one tq commit a fielding error.

STREETS DESERTED With practically all the stores of the city closed, there were few persons on Main street today. There were two reasons. First, there was no place to go. Second, small boys kept up a bombardment that kept the skittish citizens stepping lively. At times during the day the firing was desultory!
