to hold the Bishops in some fashion until the fifth. In this inning the Garnets really cut loose, and when dust had cleared away they had added seven runs to their total. The big factors in this outburst were
home ruris by Dashiell and Hed- clerly. Big Ed Hedclerly, although liberal with free tickets to first base, set the Saints clown with only three
runs and four hits.
Peeler, Stone and Dashiell led the Bishops at the plate with two hits apiece. St. Christopher's big gun was Hubarcl, who collected two of the visitors' four hits.

two home runs against the Bishops last Saturday, started on the mound for W oodberry and whiffed Griffin, the lead-off man. V. E. S. loaded
;the sacks in the first, but couldn't score. However, in the second the slaughter began. Pitcher Hedderly
opened the inning with a triple. Stone singled him home. Andrews, on a bit-and-run signal, doubled to send Stone across. Peeler singled Andrews in, stole second, and scored on Reagan's single.
