Despite the fact that in yesterday's game with Pen dleton the tailenders were materially assisted by a good beginning and a pitched ball that sadly demoralized the lineup of their opponents, they were unable to dispel the hoodo which seems to hoover over them, mocking ly lifting ttiem up to occasional glimp ses of victory and then beating them back to the stygian gloom of eternal defeat and disappointment So often have these hopeful aspirations for dla mand honors been lured on by the phantom firefly only to be led further into the mirey swamps of vain ambi tion that they have almost reached that stage where their despair will mean their self-destruction. But there are still a few optimistic fans In whose breasts hope springs eternal, and before another "week rolls by they Will undoubtedly have 'buoyed up the sinking Spirits of their champions and persuaded them that there is still a chance to sniff the pure air that lies beyond the cellar. Things looked badly for Fraiier's Colts at the beginning of the game 1 If Money Gould Buy Sight Unfortunates Who for years have neglected ' to consult a competent Optomerlst would gladly pay any price.

Hanscom THE Jeweler yesterday. The Athenans put the first man up around the circuit for a score, while In the first three Innings the Pendleton swatters died in one, two, three succession. Then to cap the climax one of Lefty Smith's wild shoots caught Cronin on the knee when he Was at bat In the third and Pendleton was apparently at the mer cy of the enemy for no other catcher was to be had. However, Harlan saved the day by stepping off from the mound and donning the bird cage, while Dickson assumed the task of twirling. These two worked together like a tried team and kept the Athe na sluggers at their mercy. Pendleton's first score came In the fourth when Nelson drew a pass and purloined second. Then when Alex ander's grass cutter was fumbled by Stone, Nelson raced home, while Alex ander successfully negotiated the pathway to second. 'Powell followed with a clean single which put the young cyclone of Pendleton on the third sack. Rader flew out but Har lan's sacrifice gave Alexander an easy trip to the final landing and the in ning ended with the score of 2 to 1. In the sixth the colts annexed an other. With one down, Powell was given a ticket, stole the next two bases and skurried home on a passed ball. The fourth score came In the seventh by the phenomenal speed work of Dickson. He drew a pass and hot footed It off for -second on the first ball over. Nelson laid one down to short and Dickson beat It for third, where an attempt was made to catch him. However, the runner beat the ball to the bag, but his momentum forced him off the station of safety while the ball was still in the hands of the baseman. The latter immedi ately attempted to tag Dickson, where upon that player sprinted for home, closely pursued by the baseman and with the death dealing ball scarcely an inch from his back. Gradually the distance between the tw Increased until the pursuer, realizing the futil ity of the chase, hurled the sphere to the high heavens In an attempt to put it In the catcher's glove. The other two for Pendleton came In the eighth. Rader was given a safe Journey to first and on Harlan's single reached" third, and then when Hays and Leonard both bumped the ball, both of the former flittered to the home pan. Athena's last two scores came In the ninth. Lleuallen opened up with hit and stole second, reached third i a passed ball and came home on an ror. That same error gave Myrlck life at first and- second and after he had pilfered third he sped to the rub ber when Booher struck the ball to Rader, Considering the fact that Athena's lineup was much changed, the Colts put up a clever article of ball. Nel son deserves a brass ring for the way he covered the intial bag, securing 15 out of the 27 putouts, while Dick son and Harlan o course come In for a shower of bouquets. Tabulated Score.
