The game of ball between Clemson mnd Newberry on the college diamond Wednesday afternoon was a fitting lose to a season full of fine exhibitions f the national game. '['he home team vas up against the strongest college eam in the South, and though they vere defeated it was by a very narrow nargin, and the Newberry boys are ustly proud of their work at every oint in the game. From start to finish he contest was close and exciting, and iot until the end of the game, when he score stood six to five in favor of he visitors, could the result be pre licted with the least degree of certainty. Simpson was in the box for New lerry. lie had plenty of steam and urves to spare, and pitched good ball, ,lowing eight hits and striking out ve men. Dendy, who tossed the phere for the visitors, was in fine hape, with his slow ball allowing only i ne hit and striking five. Cabaniss ehind the bat for Newberry and Max- I tell for Clemson held everything within heir reach. In fact, almost without I xception every man on both sides did 1 is full share. For the first five and a half innings here was no score on either side and i or the most. part it was three nen u1p nd three men down. In the third a ming Sitton, who on many a field has nde a great reputation for hard hat ing went (Iown before Simpson's speedy urves, three times madly beating the ir. In the fourth Clemson was pre ented from scoring only by Coleman's eautiful throw from left field, cutting fr a man at home, making one of the rettiest and closest plays seen on the ianmond this year. In the sixth inning Clemson piled up tree to her credit. Dendy took first i n an error by Roesel, and Chisolm went I first on a hit. advancing Dendy to I ?cond. With two men on bases, Weir )nnected with the sphere and sent it I >lling towards first. Harms left his ag and chased the ball. Captain Viles, going towards first. to receive t 1e hall from Ilarms, failed to manage is feet and while he was plowing up he earth l)endy scored and Chisolmn ad anced on third. Chisolm scored on ad well's bunt. (,oggans, next, sent - little fly to Fuliner on third. h'ulner's tachinery failed to work and for the I iir I time in one short inning a Clem- I )n man crossed the plate. In the seventh Newberry pushed a ian across the plate and broke her 1 hain of zeros also. Simpson took first n an error, and Fulmer for Simpson .ole second and third and scored on lenson's connection and a fumble by oleman's third. In the eighth three men wearing the carlet and silver gray reached thef oal and the sidL lines and the grand Land went wild. Harms, Riser and o abaniss were on bases. Fulmer hit > short. Goggans threw home beaiu fully, but the catcheri failed to hold 10 ball and the three mna on bases oredl in ordler mientione'd. Clemson followed with three imre ~ores, two men coiming home on a t wo ase hit b)y Sitton. In the ninth Newb)erry was able to ~ore only one man, Coleman chasing time from third on IDendy 's wild p,itch. Iemson declined to take her p)art of ie ninth, and the pirettiest and closest ame on the Newberry dliamonid t his 3ason ended with a score of six t.o five.I scoRE BY INNINC. ewberry 0 0 0 00 01 31,5 1 8 lemson 00 00 0 30 3* 6i 8 6i Struck out, by Simpson 5, by D)endy ;balls, Dendy 1; hit by pitched hall, ase on Simpson I, D)endy I ; wild itches, Dendy 2.
