Time, 2 hours 35 minutes. Stoneham 4 — Walpole 2 A big fourth inning in which they scored three runs gave Stoneham High a victory over Walpole, 4 to 2, Saturday, May 3. “Sonny” Doherty, bearing down in the pinches, chocked off rallies b.y the Walpole team in the sixth and sev- enth, and his slashing double in the fourth, which drove in two runs was the big blow of the game. After the fourth, Stoneham was un- able to solve Fitzgerald, who was on the mound for Walpole, and only tight play and excellent pitching by Doherty held the visitors in check. “Sonny”, with a perfect day at bat, j led his team’s attack in addition to flinging a masterly game. Avery started the game by drawing a walk and was sacrificed to second by Cordoran. ‘ Eed” Marston crashed a sizzling single to score Avery for the first tally of the game. Adzi got on as Marston was thrown out at second but didn’t score after stealing 2nd and 3rd. The third was the big inning of the game for Coach Gordon’s boys. Again a pass started the stanza off, Marston taking a walk. The next two men struck out, but Kent, undiscouraged, poked out a long single to left. Then Doherty came through with the most telling swat of the game, a two-bagger, which scored Marston and Kent. A mo- ment later a pretty single by Downes scored Doherty with the fourth and last Stoneham run. But Walpole wasn’t through. She came back in the sixth for a run and was only stopped by “Sonny’s” closing the scoring with a strikeout with a man on third. Walpole threatened again in the sixth and garnered another run but from then on was held in cheek.

Stoneham 10 — Lexington 3 The Stoneham High baseball team ad- ded two more points to its credit in tlie Middlesex Valley League race when it took its third straight league game from Lexington on Friday, May 9, by the score of 10 to 3. The Stoneham boys played heads-up baseball from start to finish and although they were outhit 7 to 5, they made the most of the breaks. Stoneham opened the scoring in the second with two runs without a hit. Eice was safe on Lewis’ miscue, Kent walked and Connors advanced both run- ners a base. Downes and Theroux were hit by pitched balls and Avery hit a sacrifice fly to center field. Corcoran walked to fill the bases but Marston was thrown out by the pitcher. Stone- ham added five in the fourth, one in the fifth and two in the seventh to com- plete the scoring. Lexington scored one in the seventh, one in the eighth and one in the nintli.

The cen- terfielder found it too hot and juggled it while Theroux, Corcoran, and Marston raced home. Adzi meanwhile contin- ued and reached home safely when the peg went wild. The Blue and White scored two more in the fourth. Belmont made a dying tlurry to increase her total by two. Another Stoneham run in the fifth spell- ed finis to the scoring.

The locals got their runs in three batches of four and a single marker in the second. They knocked out fourteen safe wallops, in- cluding a long three-bagger by Avery. Although Saugus managed to connect for nine safeties, Theroux kept them well scattered and fanned thirteen in eight frames while Doherty whiffed three in succession in the ninth. Adzi was the big sticker of the afternoon with three hits. Stoneham went into the last half of the third with fire in its eyes and hits pouring off the bats to emerge with four big markers. Theroux started off with a nice little single. The next man, Av- ery, died out to center. Corcoran took a walk and Marston filled the sacks with a timely single. Theroux and Cor- coran crossed the plate on Adzi’s health- ly two-bagger. Rice s single cleared the bases. After that big third it was all Stone- ham, Saugus threatening only once in the fourth to get another run. A lusty triple by Avery helped in the scoring in the sixth in which the locals got four runs followed by four more in the eighth.

Stoneham 11 — M. A. C. Freshmen 2 The Stoneham High baseball team journeyed to Amherst, Saturday, May 10, and defeated the Mass. Aggie Fresh- men by the score of 11 to 2. This trip, which was about one hundred and ten miles in k ngth, was something rather unusual for a Stoneham High team and was very interesting for all who took it. M. A. C. is the old camping ground of “Doc ’ Gordon, the baseball mentor at the local high, and ‘‘Doc” showed the boys the grounds and fraternity houses. The M. A. C. Freshmen opened the scoring in the first frame on an error and a two base hit but this lead was soon wiped out in the second inning on a two base hit, a base on balls, and two errors. The locals added two more runs in the third, after two were out, on two hits, and a passed ball by the catcher. The Stoneham boys added two runs in the sixth and scored the final four runs in the ninth. The M. A. C. Freshmen added their final run in the seventh. Rice and Adzigian did the heavy hit- ting for the locals while Smith was best at bat for M. A. C.
