6 THE ORACLE. P. JH. S.; 43 Morris H. S., 0. Our baseball team scored its third shut-out on April 29, by defeating the Morris H. S. nine. It was a light-hitting game, and was well played in spite of the rain, which fell during the latter part of the morning. Our team made four h its and one error, to one hit and two errors for our opponents. Smith pitched a fine game, striking out eleven men, and it was because of their inability to hit that we whitewashed them.

Three hits and twenty errors for Leal’s tells the whole sad story. For the first few innings it seemed as if the game would be close, for after we had scored a run, Leal’s scored also, their first and only run, by a base on balls and a hit. But in the third inning the merry-go-round started, and by the ending of the fifth inning the score was 15 to 1. But worse things were to follow. Jewett was taken out of the box and Browne was substituted, and in the sixth inning alone our boys scored eleven runs. Burt pitched the first five innings and did fine work, allowing only three hits. Smith pitched the rest of the game and struck out three of the six men who faced him. Our other players also played excellent ball, and not a single error was scored against us, while Leal’s seemed to be “stage-struck,”’ for they made errors in nearly every case where an error could possibly be made. They certainly gave the poorest exhibition of baseball that has been seen here this season.

Our baseball team administered a coat of white-wash to the Cranford team, at Cranford, on May 6. Smith was in fine form, and did not allow a single hit, nor did he give a single base on balls. Our boys batted like vet- erans, making hits whenever they were necessary, and securing in all 15 hits from Bareus’ delivery. Bargus puzzled our batters once in a while, getting eight strike outs. Smith struck out Io men. Our team played a steady game, and made only two mishaps.

TMAk ORACLE: 5 school teams of North Jersey are not able to play their nearby opponents and also the preparatory schools of South Jersey, such as Lawrenceville. But the title of state high school champions can be figured out with more correct- ness. The three leaders of this class this year are Montclair, East Orange, and Plainfield High Schools. Our game with Montclair was called on ac- count of rain, but Morris High School defeated Montclair, and we defeated Morris High School. Thus eliminating Montclair, East Orange remains as a competitor for the title of “State High School Champions.” East Orange refused a game with us on the ground that they had to save their pitchers for their game with Newark High School on the day following the day on which we offered to play them. Comparisons are odious, but anyone doubting our rightful claim to be the champion high school baseball team of New Jersey, is left to compare our respective completed schedules. The cause of our success is obvious. We had the best school boy base- ball players. The infield was a crack-a-jack combination. Our battery trio, Smith, Burt, and Davis, were as a rule too much for any opposing batsmen, so much so, in fact, that the outfield never had a chance to prove their worth. It is useless to exploit the two all round stars, Conway and Craig, the ap- pended statistics will do that, but these same statistics do not show the able handling the team received from Captain Thompson. To him belongs a large share of the laurels won by the Plainfield High School. And to Man- ager Lapsley great credit is due for his able and financially successful man- agement of the season’s schedule.
