Signal Corps and Bankers Mix On
Thursday Night—Fast Game Is
Looked Forward To.
Reinforced by members af the
Bankers and Cable Office teams, the
Nile Parks and Merchants staged
their second meeting, a tpeppery and
clamorous affair, in the local gym
last night. The Waterfront !boys,
who were perhaps Ibetter strengthen
ed by the reinforcements than their
less fortunate opponents were, suc
ceeded in slugging thir way to an 18
to 14 victory, thereby seating them
selves a bit more firmly in first place
among the standing of the teams.
With the excepton of one inning,
the scrimmage, for that’s what it
was, reflected most creditably upon
the pitching ability of Tom Dyer and
the pitching ability of Tom Dyer, the
N. P. crack twirler. Backed by some
nee hitting on the parts of his team
mates, Tom was in full command of
the situation at all times. For the
first five innings the scrappy Mer
chantmen could get but three runs
across the platter, while the rava
ers under the banner of the Nile
Park Giants pounded Valade’s speed
ball for thirteen tallies.
Undaunted by the -immense lead
pied up by his adversaries, and yield
ing not to depressed feelings when a
star player chose to resign from the
pastime at a critical stage, Captain
Shellhorn, using tactics a la John
McGraw, injected sufficient fight into
his men during the sixth and seventh
stanzas to tie the score! Nor did
their gallent spree subside until the
Merchants, in their half of the eighth
forge out ahead with a margin of one
run. The walloping Nile Parkers

came back in the last of the inning,
however, and after two men were
out, scored five more markers, salt
ing away the victory.
After Dyer had set them down in
apple pie order in the first three
'frames, Gus (Pop) Man they landed
the Merchant’s first solid hit dn the
fourth. Gus immediately proceeded
to swipe both second and third bas
es (and he claims to be fifty years
old) from whence he scored on an
other liner by iShelihorn. And just
to show the folks that the bald spot
on his head is only a birthwark
(Shelly stole home, like a flash, on
one of Hoppe’s return throws to the
pitcher. Selby, entering the game
in the fifth inning greeted the fans
with a much needed run for the
Merchants. The seventh was the
big inning for the Mercantile rep
resentatives; Lien, hard-hitting mem
ber of the Operators team, started the
doings with a two base blow. Shelly,
Hickman, McEwan and Selby follow
ed with safe hits, and after Urtbach
and Bob Manthey stepped into the
ball seven runs, in all, had counted
before the onslaught was checked.
Valade scored the final tally for the
Merchants in the eighth.
Painter. Dyer and Robison of the
Nile Parks were celebrating some
kind of a slug fest, as each of the
trio lambasted home runs into the
gallery. McLaughlin, erstwhile Ca
ble Operator, not only sent several
runs in with his lusty stickrwork, but
played a sensational defensive game
at second base for the N. P.’s as
well; twice breaking up opponents
rallies with unassisted double plays.
Jimmy Ratliffe, borrowed from, the
Bankers, took care of the hot cor
ner, left shortstop, in his usual capa
ble manner.
Thursday night’s game will be be
tween the Signal Corps and Bankers.
Manager Hannon and Capt. Roberts
have assembled a very strong team in
the Bankers, and Snyder’s Operators
will find that they have a tough pro
position on their hands when the
two teams meet.
