LAURENS DOWNS 1 ABBEVILLE TEAM' In a Onesided Game Here Tuesday J Score 9 to 1?Abbeville Won t Monday 2 to 4. ^ ' c (By Jack Bradley) c Laurens piled up a large score a. c gainst the Abbevillians who made t their lone tally in the first inning. b The game was canea Dy umpire i f Owings in the third inning for the I h duration of the rain which lasted perhaps thirty minutes. n Up until the sixth inning it looked fr like a baseball but it was a hitfest g from thence forward. And Laurens si had an interesting track meet while n running away with the longest end a of the score. p Kennedy was hit hard and conse quently relieved by Milam in the sixth who vainly endeavored to pitch Abbeville out of its "hole." Laurens ? ? ? 9 12 3 Abbeville 1- 7 2 Mosely and Eubanks, Culbertson; Kennedy, Milam and Agnew. Abbeville and Laurens played the first of the second series on the Ab beville grounds Monday afternoon. A rain just before the game caused the ground to be somewhat slippery and was the probable cause of sever al errors. Abbeville started things rolling when Galloway, E. hit for two bases in the second inning with two men on, scoring both. Two more scores were added n the 7th inning. Laurens made her initial run in the fourth and registered again in eighth. Batteries for Abbeville, Allen and Agnew. For Laurens, Bobo and Cul bertson. Umpire, Tribble. 2 base hits, Galloway R.

Greenwood, July 18.?In a game loted as much for ragged playing as for hitting, Greenwood lost to An. ierson here Monday afternoon by the score of 17 to 10. Four pitchers rould not stem the hitting stride of Anderson, which backed by gross er -ors by Greenwood, easily gave the visitors the vitory.

Both clubs were in much better form ;oday and both played good ball, Etheridge for Greenwood kept the lits of the hard hitting Anderson :lub well scattered.
