16 New 1 ewe wutt) our hj UKe pTp Mutt Must Be AFTER MANY SLIPS Wilmiofton Loses Oat in a Game Babblinf Over With Interest By Gohon, one of Harrlsburs's young 'twirlers, is a digger. Lack of experience put this youngster in many holes in yesterday's game with Wilmington, but he ilnally dug himself out with a victory; score. 2 to 1. It was a great game for the spectators. Something interesting was happening every minute.

Opposed to Uohon was Brown, a young CJk.k. This boy also took a big part in the nine act circus. Brown had speed and curves, fanning ten men and making a record for himself. His lacking was control. Gohon had that goodly quality, especially in pinches.

Charley" Miller a former HarrlBburg catcher, was in the game. He got a great welcome from the fans. With these, youngsters working things happened not found on a daily baseball program. It was funny to see them doing things they learned in the old town lot game. Wiser heads pulled them through.

Gohon's work was a feature after he settled down. Both teams played with "pep" and it was anybody's battle until the last man was out on Wilmington's side in the ninth. Two decisions by Umpire Glatts had the fans guessing for a time. Pearce hit an infield fly. Wyckoft let it drop clean, Intending to try fof a double play.

Umpire Glatts was wise to his tricks and called the batter out. Meyers ran to third on the play and was tagged by Byers. AVhen Meyers started to walk to the bench Jimmy Jackson grabbed him, forcing Meyers back to the base. A coacher is not allowed to touch a runner. Jackson's violation put the runner out.

Of course, Jimmy Howled, but it was no use. He knew better. Two passes and three singles gave Wilmington their one run. Two singles and an out allowed Harrisburg to tie up the score in the fourth. An error by Morgan with a single and double brought the other run.
