Abbeville won the first game of the series from Laurens Monday by a score of 4 to 3. From the score the average fan would think it a good game, but it was slow with loose fielding. / Abbeville won the game when Ra zor, Laurens' first sacker dropped a peg with two out. This error was very costly for two runners counted on it. Laurens threatened to score in the ninth but a wonderful catch by Reames of Moseley's long drive to the score board saved the game. This catch also saved old man A. B. Gal loway five iron men. Dick Swetenburg, former Clem son star, did the hurling for Abbe ville. He kept his six hits well scat tered, striking out eight Laurens batters. Truman Reames did the stellar fielding for Abbeville, making two fine catches. Bob Clark took the hit ting laurels getting three singles out of four times at bat. First Game. Box Score: LAllRENS AB R H.
