A revised lineup, found Diehl and Malley, former Berwick battery, starring for the Altoona team. Diehl, the catcher, connected for a circuit drive in his first trip to the plate in the first inning. This stimulated a hitting bee by locals who gathered a comfortable lead of 5 runs before being retired in the initial stanza. Brundige was the only other Hustler to -get an extra base hit during the game. In the sixth inning ho was aggrieved by being hit by a pitched ball and promptly smashed out a double.

Malley, the pitcher subdued the heavy- hitting Farrar sluggers easily letting them down with only 3 runs in 7 innings. Sprague then permitted a little batting practice for Farrar's last 0 runs. Switzer, Miller and Longcor in succession proved ineffective in stopping a barrage of base hits and walked several runs in. This victory succeeds two rather disr.sterous games with Farrar and Trullinger Grove, which arc best forgotten. The Adelphi may be the local's opponents next Sunday, although it is a strong desire of the "Hustlers" to play a rub game with Trulliinger Grove.

Soon we heard he had a "raise" another year or two another advance and last y'ear we heard the young chap was drawing $400.00 per and was going to be advanced to a higher salary and position. The manager said, "When you take this position, there is one thing 'though you will have to do, you will have to a. hip flask. Our young friend him in the eye and said, "Well, if 1 have to do that we might as well the promotion'off, because I will not carry a hip flask." The manager said.
