FRESHMEN LOSE IN 11 INNING CONTEST

Middlesex Nine By Clever Play Wins Closely Contested Game by 4-3 Score--Pollard Chief Star For Schoolboy Team

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Freshmen experienced their second extra-time contest when they played through eleven innings against Middle sex School yesterday afternoon at Concord, only to be beaten by the home team 4-3 in the end of the last session. Pollard, the Middlesex shortstop, brought in his side's winning tally when, after receiving a pass, and advancing to third when Carnegie missed Slayton's grounder, he stole home.

Both teams made their first run in the second inning, and Middlesex counted twice in the eighth, when Pollard sent Uptown as well as himself across the plate with a long home run. The yearlings, however, rallied in the ninth, and taking advantage of J. Knowlton's error and three consecutive singles by L. B. Lockwood, Thomas Campbell, and K. N. Hill, they tied the score. The tenth proved scoreless for both nines, but brilliant individual work by Pollard in the eleventh brought the schoolboys out of a closely contested struggle with a well earned victory.

The line-ups:

1924.--C.f., Lewis Gordon; 2b., R. P. Bullard; 3b., T. M., Carnegie; c., L. C. Larrabee; l.f., A. S. Rogers; s.s., Percy Jenkins; r.f., L. B. Lockwood; 1b., R. G. Norris, Thomas Campbell; p., K. N. Hill.

Middlesex.--2b., J. Knowlton; c., Upton; c.f., Atwater; s.s., Pollard; 3b., Slayton; p., G. Knowlton; 1b., Austin; l.f., Allen; r.f., Hiller, Malins.
