Danville ni Konuoke. Norfolk nt Petersburg. BY Gt:S MAI.RERT. It was a suffering, sweltering mass of human boln;;s tlint sat through the ball game at the local inclosure yes? terday afiernoon and watched Dutch Revelle simply toy with the Shoemak? ers from Lynchburg, while tho locals liandled Bruck so roughly In the third notch of the walkaway that three tal? lies were recorded, after which, the weather being conducive to laziness, the home talent simply resolved ltsclt Into a bulwark of defense, preventing the visitors from making the circuit ? single time. Dutch has come back to his own. }le used that fast bull of his to sucn good effect thut the seven hits made counted for nothing. The oonndenco ?which seemed to have oozed out of him the latter part of last season wns olso on lap. and those present during the engagement felt that Arthur lrwln Was not spending money recklessly ?when he gave Owner Bradley si'.buu for the smiling one. With complete control he worked tho corners or usod the groove when that wns necossary. His change of pa.ee was noticeable and effective, and he had those Lynch Jiurg swatters breaking their backs over a slow one one moment and {dodging speed the next. First Chance to See Dutch. It was the lirst time this season jthat a Richmond nudience had a chance to watch him work, although Jhe had bean giving good account ot 3ilmself on the road. And, children, ?believe mo, when it Is recorded that JDutch has learned how to hit. wheth? er It was Hal Chase's training or ^whether his long spell of sickness im? proved his eyesight, or to whatever cause it can bo attributed, the tact remains L.-t Dutch Revelle, the joke hitter of tho Colts for the several seasons he worked, has learned how to pluce blngleis and blnglcs just wiioro ihey.are most effective As a matter of fact he started the fusillade which laid Simon liruck low. It was a great pity that Simon '6ad to be laid low, for, with the ex? ception of that one. lapse, he was Just as effective o_s Dutch. Dutch came up In tho third with that same nonchalant air which has made him famous, but when he stood it the plate, waiting for Bruck to unwind, those who know him best 'ounci a change in the way he han iled himself With both feet together, up close to the rubber, he waited, and 'rwhen Bruck tried to work ;he out Bide corner with a wldo curve ball, Into It Dutch walked, caught the fcphere before the rnrvo broke, and down right field rolled the ball, with Dtle Stocksdale hotfooting uftert it. ;the while Dutch hnd reached second ?nd was sitting quietly down, taking ?i rest. Game Salted In Third. The remarkable part of it all i?> lhat two were down when It started ?>nbson led off and rolled from Mc? Donnell to Woolnms. Cowan tumbled before three low cur'es and Iben Tnitch doubled. Baker Jabbed to left nnd Dutch - ?walked to third. Baker. .Wing In bad shape. Pierce ran for Jiim.

Jack Marlin covered himself with enough glory -to -last for an ?-ntiro buseball season He had ten chances and never fllvvered befolg any one of them, though he stabbed at lenst liulf a dozen smncks labeled safe. He was literally all over the diamond. For Instance. In tho fourth inning Dynch hurg had a, chance to score, and noth? ing but phenomenal fielding saved tho day. Morrison had walked and stolon second. Stocksdale was up He hit a terrific drive up close to third. Baker went after It, hut In his crippled condition couldn't quite reach. Martin was on the Job and by quick worlt speared the ball, holding Morrison on third. Visitors Hud Opportunities. Dynchburg looked dangerous again in the fifth, when more fast work pre? vented damage. Bion lived when Cow? an dropped a higli fly. He was sent to second when Dutch walked BrucK. Keating was safe, Bruck being forced to second. Keating started to second, and Cowan whipped to Martin, wno was playing In. Blen took the bait, line, sinker and all, and broke tor home. Martin made a perfect return, and Bien was caught a mile. Things began to look squally tor the Colts In the opening frairie. Keat? ing, the first man up. hl.i a clean drive to centre. Wuolums got tho sacrlllce signals and put one down to Baker, who completed tho play nt tlrst. Woolums made second without trouble, j but seeing no one covering third start? ed for that station. Bevelle quick as n flash was over to take the throw, and nailed Woolums. It vvns good ball j playing, for a moment later Morrison doubled, which would have scored Keating, and might have changed the | whole complexion of the game. The second was by no means with? out trouble. Stocksdule went down I from Martin to Dobson. Krebs hit to | left nnd tried to stretch It into a double, but was caught by Matlts's perfect pegging. Zunelll also hit to left, but was caught trying to steal. Cowan gett ng the throw away nicely, and Martin covering. Four of the Sov? en hits made by Lynchburg came in the first two frames, with tho other threo distributed. In contrast to tho desultory lirlng of the visitors was the rapid work of the Colts In gathering lour of their seven hits In one inning, putting the game on Ice. It wns a fnst and snappy game, with honors enough to go around. Crowlcy, calling base decisions, came In lor Ills ] usual roast, and he wns olt. whim I Flynn was satisfactory behind the | bat.

Every Gooher on tho team hit him, and bov oral o( thorn fattened their batting averages to a great extent. Homo runs, two-bnggnrs and singles were the order of tho day, and for rtvo in? nings they came with such regularity ns to satisfy the most ardent fan. Hamilton was at his beat, Kltowlng but four scattering singles, ann want? ing only one man. Hin- support was line, the fielding of Busch and Bowcn being fast and classy. The Tars played listlessly after the sooond in? ning, showing plainly that they were hackod, and It was a subject of oom ment that the game they aro playing at present lacks the vim and class ex? hibited by the Tars when they played their llrst sorles hero.
