the Chambersburg team, had a passed
ball on a third strike.

Has One More Game
The Technical High School baseball
team will play its final game of the
season to-morrow afternoon at Ann
vine, playing the Lebanon Valley Re
serves.
The Maroon won the first game played
on the island several weeks ago in an
exciting 17-inning game. "Lefty"
Challenger will be in the box for the
locals, while "Bill" Swartz, the former
Middletown High star, will toss for the
collegians.
Coach Pomp's team has had a fairly
successful season, when a number of
conditions are taken into consid
eration. The decision to have a team
at Tech was reached at a late date and
difficulty was found in arranging a
suitable schedule. Then it was found
necessary to play teams that were of
first caliber.
A lot of good material is left over
an a nucleus for next year's team
and with an early start the 1 Tech boys
should give a good account of them
selves, Coach Pomp will again be in
charge.
