    T N the game with Gettysburg here, on April 22, our team en
deavorecl to show how, they won the games on the trip, but
with better success, defeating Gettysburg by a narrow margin.
Zrrors were on top throughout the game and the throwing to
bases by our team was miserable, especially to first. All the
throws to that bag being short, putting the first baseman at a dis
advantage. While at first, thrown balls were stopped, batted balls
were not so well taken care of, several finding holes in the glove.
The infield at the beginning of the game was strengthened as
regards its make up in the Susquehanna game, while the outfield
was likewise affected. Farr and Miller did good work in the boxy
Miller's appearance being greeted with great enthusiasm. Our
bad inning was still with us. Can we not lose it somehow ? Had
it not been for the brace taken in the ninth it might have caused
trouble. The score being:
