Clerks, 22; Bosses, 11. 
In a game full of incidents and ac- 
cidents the Clerks put it all over the 
Bosses in base ball at the Brooks 
street playground Tuesday afternoon. 
The score stood 22 to 11 in favor of 
the Clerks at the end of the ninth 
inning. 
Fortunately one of the umpires 
was a doctor or more serious results 
might have resulted. Before the game 
started Walter Bell was stunned by 
being hit in the head with a ball, and 
in the early part of the game Geo. S. 
Sinnicks, the Bosses’ first base, was 
knocked out by being hit in the head 
by the knee of a player on the other 
side. Later in the game he was laid 
out by being hit by a pitched ball. 
While trying to stop a swift ground- 
er, Robert Allen, shortstop for the 
Bosses, had two fingers split open, 
necessitating several stitches being 
taken, and Raymond C. Allen, third 
baseman, had a bone in one of his 
thumbs broken while trying to stop a 
swift grounder. 
Unfortunately for the Bosses, but 
fortunately for the other side — as the 
score tells —the casualities were all 
on one side. 
As to the game—it was a star exhi- 
bition. Crocker did the pitching for 
the clerks, while Harry Gray did the 
twirling for the bosses. They were 
about evenly matched. The base run- 
ning, especially on the part of the 
bosses, was a feature,—because of its 
poor qualities. The hitting was fair, 
but they were greatly abetted by the 
errors of the fielders. 
Crocker made some good connec- 
tions for the clerks, and he was easily 
seconded by Ralph Stanley and L. 
Woods. For the bosses, Bell made a 
couple of good cracks, as did also 
Cheever and Ray. Allen. 
Officers Lee and Lomasney and 
special officer Sheehan were on duty 
at the game, which was _ unduly quiet, 
especially for the Fourth.
