And Mr.Sheely, Port-side hurler Deluxe, came through in big league fashion. Faced with the bases loaded several times, while the visitors held the lead, and his fast breaking bends, bucking, Lefty Sheely, settled down to a conservative pace and tumbled down thewillow wielders of St. aMry's like a veteran.Franks, The iof the; by dire bert, o whotliwhat h«orders.RfiU’ iivilil ofnberlandBang-up FirstSheely’s addition to the Gettysburg crew, instilled the Bullets with a certain amount of confidence that servedcho-n oftrite ofWarthelagelandthem well in Saturday’s conflict.While dark clouds hung overhead, and Old Jupe threatened to bust up the pastime, the invaders waltzed into Mr. Sheely’s offerings for two safe bingles. This coupled with a walk netted the visitors two big tallies. It happened this way:Strausbaugh worked the Gettysburg moundsman for a free ticket to the initial sack. C.

Small connected with a fast breaking curve and ’ere the dust had lifted. Mr. Strausbaugh had crossed the platter for the first score and Small was tucking in his shirt at second base. Poist singled to center and Small, who believes in running when the running is good, hopped to the keystone station, and sprinted forhome with the second tally. McKim then was selected to run for Poist who turned his ankle. W.
