The C and boys picked up two runs in the first inning and held this lead until the fourth when Ab- bies evened the count on a double, triple and a hit. batter. In the fifth the visitors forged ahead, scoring two more tallies and Simmons. who had started for c and 3. gave way to Benny Carson. The construction crew struck back for two runs in the sixth on a single a walk, two fielding errors and I the thirteenth when the successful "squeeze" ended the struggle. Pitched Great Game Charlie Ryan pitched what was perhaps one of the greatest games of his career, remaining on the mound for the full thirteen inn- ings and giving up only nine hits. ills fine pitching effort was rival- led by the brilliant relief hurling of Coke Grady who relieved Car- son in the tenth to allow only one hit during the rest of the game. Charlie Ryan and Red MacKen- zie led the Abbie attack with two hits apiece. One of MacKen'sie's bingles was a long triple to right centre field. Grant Grady. fifteen- year-old phonom, and coke Grady hit two safeties apiece for Curran and Brgigs, one of Cokey's smash- es going to deep centre field for three bases. I It game" was replete with bril- liant fielding efforts. Whitlock's grab of a Texas Leaguer by Mau- rie Cannon in the first inning was perhaps the most spectacular ef- fort. Buck ran back towards left field and with two outiielders also converging on the ball managed to snare it while on the dead run.

"Young Grady, the pitcher. goes into ablg wind- up and I knew that I could steal on him. when he saw me steal- ing home he threw the bsll wide and I came in standing up with plenty of room to spare. Follow- ing the game a couple of sum- rnerslde fans came to me and told me that I was safe." . . The outcome of the game in- dicates that this Island baseball League is shaping up into a pretty interesting affair.
