A nightmare eighth inning, in which Milton sent thirteen men to the plate and scored nine runs, changed what had been a close game into a rout and shattered our hopes of upsetting our big rival. Onjune 3 the team traveled to Newport, R I to face a St George s outfit that had lost but one game all year We came close to giving them their second but finally suc cumbed by a 5 2 score despite fine pitching by ohnny Alles and good fielding Our batting still lacked punch Alles blow produced our first run in the seventh when Sr George s errored on the blow allowing ohnny to score Then inthe ninth we rallied for another tally but Perera s fly to left proved to be the final out Although defeated the team proved they were a ball club and left a good impression on which to end the season At a meeting of the lettermen Captain Rogerson Alles Pratt Green Romaine Hawks Perera Childs and Qprout and Manager Buttrick George Buehler was elected next year s captain l69l , . ., . , .
