By "I mp" Juicy curves by Joe Chabek and circus catches by Chick Emerson were big factors yesterday in winning the game from Trenton; score, 2 to 1. Island Park patrons never left their eeats until the last man was out for Trenton. It was the second time Harrlsburg chased the Tigers to cover on the heme field. Williams, the Tiger twirler, had puzzlers and speed. He lost his own game when he tapped Chabek on the elbow in the seventh inning with a pitched ball. Emerson's greatest one-hand catch was in the sixth, when he made a long reach and sta'>bed a four-base drive from Johnnie's stick. Cruikshank was also mixed up in a stabbing affray. AVhalen and .Maurer had a close race for brilliant work at short. Pop Foster was on the job as man ager for the Bengals'and was given a warm welcome. His presence brought increased ginger into the work of Tronton. In the first three innings Chabek had difficulty in getting the hall to break right. In the third in ning Hammond hit to left field for a double. Meyers put down a Cincin nati bingle and Hammond romped home on Johnson's sacrifice fly to center. Harrisburg scored in the fourth Miller reached first on Meyers' error; Whalen sacrificed and McCarthy doubled to left. In the seventh Cha bek was hit. Keyes sacrificed, and when Cruikshank sent a hot grounder down the first base line and beat it out Chabek came home. The score: TR ENT< >N AR. R. H. O. A. E.
