up nineteen runs against Carbondale's
nothing.
Scranton's playing against Carbon

support the Scranton score would have
been much lower.
At the end of the sixth Inning Jack
Fee icplnccd Smith, but when Fee came
to bat he was hit lu tho head by a
pitched ball, which mado It necessary
for him to retire from tho game. Ho
was replaced by Cuff, who pitched tho
giimn out. The game was not close
enough to be highly interesting. The
