The other day he did not take kindly to a decision made by Umpire Arlie Latham. He struck the indicator holder. Patterson was suspended tor work. He tried one game but could not perform well. Reese fixed him up all right and he will be able to go back on the prayer meeting corner in a few days.

Smith worked well on first base yesterday while Limric held the manager's position in the field down well. Lanky Slab Artist Worked Eighteen Innings for 'Nocks, Allowing But Three Hits in the Second Game an "indefinite" period but it Is quite noticeable that he was back In the game a day or so after the occurrence. Patterson fights for every point He kept his lungs going for four long hours yesterday. Van says a whole lot of things to his players that he don't mean and he says a-plenty that he does not really know he utters. His whole heart and soul Is in the game.

That's why he is the popular manager. Pitchers Noah and Hawk were released this morning by Manager Smith. This leaves a quartet of Btrong twirl-ers upon the pitching staff, Rube Bowers, Jimmy Limric, Steen and Jack Kennedy. In a pinoh, Smith can call Harry Camnite back from Butler, but this possibility is not probable. AH four pitchers are experienced men and are capable of hard work.

With two southpaws among the four, it will allow Smith to work right and left handers alternately. The pitching department is now better systematized than it has been at any time this season. Jack Kennedy, while hit for 14 safe It would be a source of great relief to the newspaper writers if the press box at the Cascade grounds were equipped with writing desks. At present there is nothing but a broken down table there. It cannot be used.

The scribes are obliged to use their knees for writing desks. The park management promised to attend to the matter the forepart of the season, but the promise was forgotten. Visiting newspapermen are always steered clear of the press box and entertained in the grandstand. ery. He was let out by Cincinnati last spring because he was not in condition and he was just rounding into' form when Walter East lost a good thing by releasing him last week.

Steen showed yesterday what he can do and Rube Bowers is admittedly the best southpaw of the league. Limric is a steady pitcher, except for an occasional one bad inning, but he shows much less tendency in this way when away from home than when at Cascade. Pitcher Noah is under contract with the Shreveport club of the Southern league, which has a string upon him, so he will return there. Hawk is held under contract with Toledo and it will now be up to Manager Bill Armour of that place to pay him his salary. Both are good enough twirlers to readily secure a Job.

A fanMn the bleachers shied a pop bottle at Umpire Hart during the first game yesterday. Hart paid no attention to the incident. It is not believed the glass was hurled with malicious, intent. Hart is not popular in New Castle. Again the questionWhy was Steinberg released when he was working, better than other umpires in this league? McDonald would be the goods if he was a trifle faster on the bases, Mac can work behind the bat as well as most any catcher in the league but Krueger, the new second baseman of the Nocks, is surely a false alarm.

Just how he ever managed to hold down a position in the P. O. M. league is past understanding. Perhaps this decision is made in comparing his work to that ones last Friday by Akron, has every thing that makes for a good pitcher, and it is safe to say no team will again make so many bingles from deliv when it comes to base work he is not Yesterday was an off day for Danny Davis.

The short Stop had more errors in the two games than he usually piles up in a month. Three were chalked up against him in the second game while he also muffed In the first of Pinkney, as he cannot hold a candle to the little Clevelander. Quite a number of balls went past him yesterday that Pink would have grabbed easily. up to the standard. He might improve his weakness by running a few heats each evening on Long avenue.

1 When New castle started on PINKNEY EXPECTS Trip, Nine Games to Ploy, Willi only Two Pitchers on Hand PETE PORTER CAN'T PLAY WITH ICIS IK GREAT MOB TO BE ABLE TO GO. Ill GAME THIS WEEK AFTER THIS WEEK William Steen, hard luck pitcher, newly married, and filled with more than ordinary ambition, twirled New Castle into two victories over Shar-. on at Cascade Park yesterday afternoon before a crowd of several hundred spectators. The scores were, first game, New Castle 5, Sharon second game, New Castle 6, Sharon 3. Steen pitched in magnificent form, had the best of control and was steady during both games.

There were nine men behind him who worked good and hard, however, and the opportune batting of the Nocks went a great ways towards winning the two vie-, tories. There were no especial features to the games aside from the pretty work of the new benedict. The first game was rank In places, while the second was fast and fair. The locals piled up five runs in the second game but none was worth while. Steen allowed Sharon 7 hits in the first game and held the Medicine Men to three bingles in the second.

This ie the first time this season that a New Castle pitcher has worked in two games in one day, although Noah pitched an 18-Inning game, losing to Sharon 4 to 3. New Castle won the first game in the seventh Inning, hitting Strom all over the lot after two men had been killed. Strom is a punk pitcher. He has only a straight ball. It Is swift and he controls it well.

Somehow or other New Castle could not get to it early In the game but when the Nocks got next there was nothing much to it. The first run of the game was scored in the third inning on Paddy Green's error. Wcodie walked and Burke reached first on Clever's mis- play. Smith singled but Woodruff was caught at the plate. Griffin tried to catch Burke at third but Green muffed and Burke crossed.

Steen broke the game up in the seventh. He singled. Davis sacrificed him and Lira rlc flew out to right. Woodie walked and Burke walked, filling the cushions. Here's where Bill Smith and his bat worked.

He singled, scoring Steen and Woodie. Hagen singled scoring Davis while Krueger singled scoring Smith. Sharon scored in the fourth and fifth. Mathay reached second when Davis muffed. Kerr singled to.

center, scoring Mathay. Sellers walked and Kerr stole second. Sellers went down to second and Kerr scored on the throw. In the fifth Sharon got one Strom singled for his second hit of the game. Green bunted and Krueger threw over second in his anxiety to-catch Strom.

The Sharon twirler tried to score but was nipped at the plate. Mathay singled and Green scored. New Castle had a picnic in the. second game. Sharon played listless ball.

Burwell started to pitch and lasted four innings. McClafferty, an outfielder, was sent In. He worked well and kept the Nocks from further scoring. Up until the sixth inning Steen held Sharon without a hit New Castle started off well in the first. Limric singled, stole second and scored when Burke planted a safety in left field.

In the second the Smithonlans scored twice. Hagen drew four wide ones and stole second. Kreuger fanned and Brigger was hit. Hagen scored when the ball was thrown to second to head off Brigger who stole safely. Brigger Bcored when Davis singled.

The fourth was a lulu. Kreuger walked. Brigger hit the sphere for two bases and the best Kreuger could do was to stop at third. He uns Ike a peanut. Krug and Brig were nabbed at the plate.

Woodruff singled, scoring Steen and Davis. Burke singled scoring Lim-ric.

The locals were scheduled for three games in Franklin, three in Oil City and three in Titusville. Four pitchers were to have been taken on the trip but two were out of condition before the day to leave.

Jake Hewitt and Callahan were the only men available. "Think you fellows can do the pitching?" was asked. "Do it all myself," growled Hewitt. Both pitchers worked hard while away and New Castle came home with six games bagged. A new pitcher was signed when the team was ready to play the last game.

Greene, 3b Toungstown trimmed Akron, 7 to 2 yesterday in Wicktown. The game ended in the eighth when rain fell. Goode The release of pitcher Hawk today by the Nocks Is a much better thing in a way than many of the fans realize, without knowing all the circumstances. Hawk and Steen were secured this spring from Toledo under an agreement that they were only to be retained this season, when they would return to Toledo. In order to them, the Nocks had to agree to give Manager Bill Armour of Toledo his pick of any of the locals at the end of the season.

New Castle objected to that, except it be specified that this would only go, in case both pitchers made good. Hawk certainly did not do so, so his being sent back to Toledo ends the chance of Toledo being able to take its pick of the Nocks at the end of the season. The saving clause the directors insisted upon putting into the agreement saves us a man next fall, when the season closes. However had Hawk shown up as well as has Steen both would have been kept the season through. PUNCH NATIONAL LEAGUE.
