' Telephone 897 Princess Street. 1081 The opening game of the City Amateur Baseball League on Satur- | | day afternoon was a regular hum-| | mer and has set a standard that will} ibe hard to beat in the games to | | come. Victorias and C.L.C., clashed | { in the opening fixture, and only after | | twelve innings of hard playing did {the veteran of the City League, { Nicholson, bring in the winning run | for the Vics, making the score 6-5. | The opening ceremonies were per-| | formed by Mayor 'Hughes as catcher, | | W. R. Givens at bat and N. C. Pol-| {son in the box. Each had an op-| portunity of showing his baseball] | prowess, which wasn't much to brag | about. Instead of sending over a| | strike, the pitcher allowed the bat: | ter to touch the ball. The batter, | however, instead. of sending out a | fair ball made a foul and instead of | catching the foul the mayor pulled {off a muff, However, due regard | ! must be had for their lack of prac-| tice and each should take consola-| tion, the pitcher in knowing that a | hit was not registered against him, the batter in knowing that he was | able to at least touch the ball and | the catcher in realizing that a foul is a very hard ball to catch some- times. Both teams showed consistent playing throughout and a noticable feature was the good will displayed. It is to be hoped this will be-con- | tinued throughout the season. There were no annoying breaks for '"scraps", and George Sullivan hand- led the game very fairly. Cherry in the bex for C.L.C., was a surprise, but he showed himself to be in fet- tle, Three returned soldiers were on the line-up for Victorias, Urie, Skitz and Rutledge, while C.L.C., also had some new men out.

A very large crowd turned out on Monday afternoon to witness the ex- hibition baseball match between Victorias and Athletics at the Cricket Field. It was an ideal day for the well but Athletics pulled a win by a score of 9 to 7. : Urie pitched a consistent game for the Vics and showed good*form. At times, however, he was very poorly supported by the rest of the team, Teddy Gallagher pitched the latter part of the game for the Vies and after he got fairly started hurled well, Spectacular plays were lack- ing. & ing.

BARROW The International Baseball League Will Pull Through Without Any! \& Trouble, Says The President. "Judging from conditions in our own circuit, it is my opinion that] the minor leagues will pull through | the present season without any] trouble," E. G. Barrow, president of the International league, says. The International has probably received the hardest blow of any minor league in existence since 1912. Wrecked by the Federals, flooded by rains, it has struggled bravely along. This year, which promised to be a good one, rains has postponed many games, and war threatens to cause more trouble. Two of the Interna- tional's clubs are in Canada, where the war spirit has made itself felt since 1914. These two clubs have suffered greatly. Barrow's statement was made af- ter hearing that the North Carolina league had disbanded. "I know it is hard for some of the small leagues," Barrow said, but they should go through if it is at all | possible. We'll finish our season if it takes every dollar we have, We've | gone through a lot of trouble. I} guess we can stand a little more." Barrow declared no one can say | what the future of baseball is likely | to brifig. | "Next year our ball players may | It may be advisable to | close our parks for a couple of sea- sons.
