Helfrich, recently of the Springfield, Massachusetts New England League team, and Lennox, recently of the Jersey City International League, are a couple of speedy lads who will be on the local infield. Both are exceptional good men and have been hitting the ball hard. Lennox is a heavy clubber who is just likely to whale one in to the river as not. Charlie White, a catcher well known in this city, will be doing the backstopping. He was here several times with Logan Square but this season is at Parkesburg Iron. In fact it is said that he and Heffner are the two best catchers in and around Philadelphia. The contest will start a few minutes before 6 o'clock and should be one of the baseball treats of the year."

Millville, NJ
"Bacharachs Won Twilight Contest - Defeated Millville in Well-Played Game Last Evening. - The Score was 5 to 2. - Millville Had Big Chance to Win in Seventh But Failed in the Pinch. - Millville dropped the first game of the series to the Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City last evening by the score of 5 to 2. A great crowd witnessed the struggle and were well pleased with the performance. The two teams clash in the second game on the M.S.A.A. field Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Millville's miscues contributed largely in a Bacharach victory and Ayau was the conspicuous offender with Stenader also contribuing aid to the enemy on a couple of occasions. Ayau, generally the brilliant performer on the team, forgot himself on a couple of plays that important. In the second inning he failed to back up Helfrich on White's bad peg, giving Potts an opportunity to tally the first run for the visiting team, and in the second stanza he failed to cover second base when White threw perfectly in an effort to get Taylor. Because there was nobody there, Taylor continued on to third and eventually counted. Stenader's contributions were made in the second and ninth. They were similar. In each instance there was a Giant on third and one on first. The last named Allen attempted to steal second and Ray became puzzled as to how to get him. While he was wig-wagging between first and second the man on third raced home. It's an old play but was worked to perfection by the Giants. - Pitched Good Game - Ray Steinader pitched a fairly good game against the colored champions and had there been air tight playing, the visitors would have been shut out. He was banged about the lot for dozen safeties, one of which was good for three bases, gave two walks and plugged a man and as a matter of fact this sort of a combination is generally good for several tallies. Shively led the onslaught with three hits, all of them being bunts in front of the plate. He struck out four men. Charles White received Ray's offerings in excellent manner and smashed out a timely single when singles were most needed in the seventh. - Millville's Big Chance - Millville had a big chance to cop the contest in the seventh when Nelson opened with a scorching single to centre. Yost crashed a two sack wallop to left centre and Seiferman followed with a single that chased Nelson over. White banged a hit past short that counted Yost. Hogan attempted to sacrifice him to second and fanned and Stenader hit to Hutchinson who threw to Lloyd and he pegged to Taylor for a double and an end of the Millville rally. - The Giants Scores - In the second with two down Potts walked. George Shively beat out a bunt. Potts stole third and came on home when White threw badly to Helfrich. In the fourth Ben Taylor singled to left. He stole second and continued on to third when nobody covered second. Ernest Gatewood singled to right scoring Ben Taylor. Johnny Pugh was out. Helfrich making a spectacular one hand stop of his bounder. Chappie Johnson walked and started for second. Steinader attempted to get him and while he was thus engaged Ernest Gatewood scored. In the eighth Bill Handy lined to right. John Henry Lloyd hit sharply to left. Yost ran back and caught Ben Taylor's high fly. Ernest Gatewood singled advancing both runners. Johnny Pugh lefted a high fly back of first that Yost caught and pegged beautifully to White who missed Bill Handy as he crossed the plate. In the ninth, George Shively beat out a hit in front of the plate and stole second. He went to third on White's error, his peg to second going to centre field. Bill Handy walked and started for second. Steinader attempted to nab him but was fooled again. He threw badly to Ayau and George Shively scored."

Millville, NJ
"Millville Trims Bacharach Giants - Locals Evened Up Series With Colored Wizards Saturday Afternoon. - The Score was 4 to 2. - Batting Rally Cmae in the Fourth and Was Aided by a Couple of Errors. - It stopped raining last Saturday afternoon just long enough to allow Millville to trim the Bacharach Giants in the second game of the series by the score of 4 to 2. Only seven innings were played because the Atlantic City team desired to catch a train to New York, they being billed to play a double header there on Sunday. Frequent downpours which came after dinner dampened the playing field badly and a gang of workmen found it a difficult task to get the field back into real good condition. However, the game was played and was witnessed by a crowd that filled the two stands. Spectacular fielding by both teams kept the crowd interested. Hutchinson grabbed everything that was hit in his direction with discouraging ease. In the fourth Peploski slammed a terrific drive at him. He got it with his bare hand. At that "Hutch" didn't have anything on our own third sacker. In the third Helfrich enacted the feature play of the performance when he stabbed John Henry Lloyd's scorching liner with his gloved hand and pegged to Yost for a pretty double. The play was a timely one and nipped a batting rally that had all the appearances of developing into somthing dangerous. 'Cannon Ball' Dick Redding was on the mound for the dusky athletes at the start of the game and his speed had the home talent looking bad at times. He pitched rapidly and that appeared to baffle the Millvillians to a disquieting degree. He gave way to Johnson after the fourth and then came the offensive that copped the contest. Three hits, two errors and a fielder's choice developed four tallies and that was sufficient. George Shively led the clubbing for the Bacharachs with a triple and a double. - How Runs Came. - With one down in the first, George Shively hit to the right center field fence for three bases. Robinson relayed the ball to Yost who threw wildly to Helfrich, allowing hi to continue on to the plate. In the third with one down, George Shively hit to left for two bases. He scored when Handy singled to left and was out a moment later when Helfrich grabbed John Henry Lloyd's line smash with one hand and thre to Yost. Millville's rally came in the fourth. Seiferman, first up, was safe when John Henry Lloy'd thre badly to first. Smith bunted and Bill Handy dropped Chappie Johnson's throw, both men being safe. Hopkins singled. Steinader bunted and was out, Ben Taylor to Bill Handy, who covered first. Seiferman scored on the play. Robinson singled over second chasing Smith and Hopkins over. Peploski hit to Hutchinson and was out at first. Yost singled past third, scoring Robinson, who had flinched third. Nelson whiffed, ending the inning."

"7th Was Lucky for the Giants - Millville Lost Well-Played Contest at Inlet Park Yesterday. - Final Score was 5 to 1. - Millville held lead until Sixth and Lost in Seventh - Had big Opportunity in Ninth. - A collapse of the Millville defense in the seventh inning allowed the Bacharach Giants to tally three runs and win yesterday's game with Millville at Inlet Park, Atlantic City. The score was 5 to 1. The Millvillians held the lead until the sixth inning, having pushed a run over in the third that looked awfully good the way things were going. The lone tally came when Yim, after being hit with a pitched ball, advanced to second on Taylor's muff of Roberts' pet to catch him napping. Yost after fouling off half dozen finally fanned. Lennox beat out an infield hit and Nelson slammed one over short that chased Yim over. The run looked big enough to carry home as the big end of the score with Clancy going the way he was. Fred Hutchinson was the only giants who could do anything with his delivery and he dented it for three hits, one of which was a two-bagger: It came in the second inning and was hit over Yim's head. It was not a difficult chance for the spry outfielders but he lost the ball in the sun. - The Giants' Runs - The resort crowd obtained the run which tied the score in the sixth. George Shively by a great slide into first beat out an infield hit and was sacrificed to second. He went to third while Clancy threw out John Henry Lloyd. Ben Taylor singled to right scoring him. Hopkins stopped Ben Taylor's attempt theft of bag number two by a pretty peg to Seiferman. But the real damage came in the seventh. Johnny Pugh, the first man up, walked. Fred Hutchinson slammed a scorching bounder to the right of Yost. He almost pulled a spectacular one hand stop but the ball was too hot for him and both men were safe. Chappie Johnson bunted toward short and Clancy fell down fielding the ball. The bases were loaded when Roy Roberts hit savagely to Lennox who pegged to Hopkins forcing Johnny Pugh. Hopkins in an endeavor to complete a double play overthrew Seiferman, who covered first, and two runs came in. Spottswood Poles launched a fly to right field which Yim raced after and dropped, allowing Roy Roberts to count. The Giants got another run in the eighth. John Henry Lloyd singled to left and went to second when Hopkins dropped a ball. Hopkins' throw reached Helfrich in time to prevent him from stealing third but the latter failed to tag him. He counted when Clancy threw badly to first on Fred Hutchinson's roller. - Pitched Good Game - Jim Clancy pitched good enough ball to win. He had the dusky lads guessing all the time and with any kind of breaks would have won. He had a baffling assortment of curves and a puzzling chance of pace that kept the darkies guessing. Millville had a big opportunity in the ninth. Seiferman, first up, walked. Hopkins was hit by a pitched ball. Hogan, batting for Clancy, walked. Robinson flied out to right field. The fly was short and Seiferman after getting half way home, went back to third. In the meantime Hopkins had advanced to third and Hogan to second. In the mixup Seiferman attempted to get home and was nailed at the plate. Yost hit a terrific drive that Hutchinson scooped up with his eyes closed, ending the game."
