MISBUin IN OPENING OHIUIE Wertz Pitches No-hit Game Against North York; Fast Fielding by Locals History repeats itself. Harrisburg trimmed York in the opening game of the season, score 5 to 1. It was not a' league game and North York furnished the attraction. It was a York team, and Harrisburg baseball fans always find much satisfaction when York can be beaten. The contest Saturday was the first regular battle for the local indepen dent team. "Shorty" Miller and his aggregation put up an interesting ex hibition. The crowd was not large. «s the fans in this city have not awakened to the fact that this is to be the representative team at Island Pajk this summer. It was also rather breezy for a baseball game. Don Werti Star Pitcher Doh "Wertz, the pitcher, was the •tar. He let York down with no hits. The only run scored by the visitors was through an error by Miller in cen terfield, a sacrifice hit and an out at first. Harrisburg was without the ser vices of "Pete" Stewart, who is out of N?e game with an injured wrist. Beach took his place and took care of what came his way. York had a good team in the field, hut no hitters. Purnell had speed and curves, hut at critical times he was given ragged support. Harrisburg bunched the lilts in the fifth and cinched the game. Next Saturday, Ellzabethtown. champions of Lancas ter county, will be the attraction. The score follows: NORTH YORK AB. R. H. O. A. E.
