ed CharIottetown's Memor- ial field last evening and defeat- ed Senior Abbies. the cream of the City Baseball League, 4-3 in a thriller that had the crowd of over 1,000 fans roaring.

Kings County pitcher Erwin Connolly was the star game as he twirled a terrific four-hitter at the Charlottetown team. The slim fastballer, who tosses ball for long in the Kings County League, had the losers eating out of his hand all the way and over thehine innings racked up an impressive 17 strikeouts. Connolly was tossing just as hard in the final frame as he had in the first and in the ninth struck out the side in fast order. He averaged least one strikeout against ev- ery player in the City lineup.

Shortstop Ernie Smith drew the spotlight offensively for the winners. Smith started a three- run rally in the second inning with a booming triple and in the eighth slashed one into left cen- trefield that went for the circuit and eventually proved to be the deciding run. -

Veteran Donnie ‘Funnel’ Mac- Lean worked the full nine inn- ings for the losers and allowed a total of eight hits, walking five and fanning nine.

In the Little League game prior to the main contest the Little League Dodgers de- feated the Indians by an

score. GRAB EARLY LEAD ,

The visitors jumped into a 3-0 lead in the second inning and retained the edge till the sixth inning when the Abbies tied It up but for the Abbies it was to no ava .
