TELL OF DEFEAT tlt;siHanover Papers Show Good Spirit over Tuesday’s Game.v.1lt;tef.;opf’ • The Hanover papers took the de-' feat of their team at Gettysburg in j* sportsmanlike fashion, making no ex-] cuse and giving Rohrbaugh due creditk for his pitching. The Independent , says:The Champs ( ?) journeyed to Gel-• tysburg and after learning all about^ ■ ' the great battle, the number killed . q ; I and wounded on each side, also learn ' -;ed how base ball should be played. ^ JWe understand that at Gettysburg a j | j man is employed, as coach^ to teachthe boys the fine art of “hitting them out” and “use your noodle”, when occasion arises. The boys from Adams county certainly showed aptitude yesterday and at the same time “showed us up”, getting our number by a 1 to 0 score.The Independent then devotes much space to a demand for regular practice, something which is largely responsible for Gettysburg’s success. The Record Herald among its “Pickups” says:“Ira Plank has developed some team for Gettysburg.” jh“The umpire after the game wentjs to hotel Gettysburg and apologized to,tManager Chenoweth for calling a Scherdel out in the ninth—it being a foul strike.”cn
