The managers called the gafne fifteen min utes earlier than the regular time In order to get a start before the threat ened rain arrived, but the umpires de cided to call it after one and a half inning had been played. Although lowering clouds which be gan " to ' gather just before noon threatened rain a big crowd of peo ple went out for thiB big day which had been planned in honor of the manager of the Bulls. A heavy rain about noon made' the grounds very wet. but the sun came out, and the . crowds went to the park. Emery and his crowd were a little - late in getting to the field and the events d,id not begin till about 3 o'clock. ' The two managers selected the men who were to compete in the var ious events. Umpires Corcoran and Cowan were the Judges of the events and Mr, E. B. Lyon was the time keeper. President W. G. Bramham did the announcing. The scores made follow: : Circling the bases, prize, a carton of Bull Durham tobacco, given by the American Tobacco, company, Butts, 15 2-5 seconds; Hartle, 15 1-5 second. Best time to first on bunted ball, prize, a pipe, given by the Durham Cigar store. First time, Meadows, 3 4-5 seconds); Wofford, 3 4-5 seconds second trial Meadows, 3 25 seconds; Wofford, 3 4-5 seconds. Farthest thrown ball .prize 500 Sovereign cigarettes given by the American Tobacco company. Angier and Butts of Durham, and Patterson and Tiney Stuart, who has been signed by Emery, competed in this event. Angier was an easy winner. While no imeasurements were taken, the heave by Angie was about the long est that has ever been seen on the East Durham diamond. All of the players went to deep center. Angier beat Tiney Stuart, whose ball hit di rectly in front of the home plate, by, several yards. Race around base's, one player from each club, one going by way of third and the other by way of first base. prize, pipe, given by W. A. Mabry Welch and Angier ran this race. A flip of a coin gave Angier the choice of the route and he chose that around by first. Angier made the bases in in 16 3-5 seconds. Farthest hit ball contest was won by Forbes, of Durham, who was com peting against Hicks, of Charlotte. Each man had a chance at three balls. Forbes shortest hit ball went farther than Hicks' longest hit one. Owing to the very wet condition of the grounds the other events which were scheduled were not pulled off. The crowd took a great interest in the various contests and cheered the Bull runners and contestants when the announcements were made. President Arthur Lyon, of High Point, was an interested spectator for the contests yesterday afternoon. TOURISTS' ERRORS COST THEM E Harry .

C, July 14 Errors by Reddy Rowe and Rickard gave Greensboro a 2 to 1 decision over Harry Watson and the Mountaineers here today. Watson pitched a bril liant game of ball, holding the visi tors to three measley singles tut the miscues came at a time when "they counted and the decision went the way of the visitors. Owen was forced to use two pitchers to get away with the game but he turned the trick successfully. , T Watson went all the way for Cor bett and never pitched a better game in his baseball career. The only slip of the local slabbist was a wild pitch that sent a runner across the pan but the rotten support accorded him had put the man in a scoring position. But two men got to first on Watson's passes and he fanned, twice this number. Harper began on the imound for Owen and worked six and two-third innings in splendid style. With two1 down in the seventh Johnny gave three free passes ,to first, .putting all on the ipatchs that the rules, allow. Owen seemed to be asleep for he made no move to use the hooks. The fourth man took his place at the bat and two balls were called on him. Still Owen slept. Milliman refused to hand the game away with the bases on balls and halted proceedings by squaring himself on the plate and telling Red that some one else would have to do the receiving unless Har per was given relief. This brought the manager into action and he or- ed Peter Boyle to the mound. Boyle forced the batter to hit a fly to left, retiring the side. How the runs were made The vis itors scored first in the second fra,me when Owen led off with a single to center and took second when Rickard allowed the ball to get through him and roll " to the fence. Doak sacri ficed him to third and Gold contribut ed a second out by whiffing. Milli-1 man smashed a grounder at Rowe and ' he fumbled the ball allowing Owen to score and Milliman to reach first, but he was out when he atempted to steal. The deciding run was sent across in the ojnth frame when Boylo singled to left. Dysert bunted in front of the plate and Frye recovered the ball, throwing it to second for a force out. All would have worked nicely but Boyle accidentally stepped on Redyd's toe and he dropped the ball. Crane popped out to the pitch er and Perri.$ .lifted a weak fly that wa3 smothered by the third baseman . McCarthy drew a base on ball, filling the sacks and Watson wild pitched Boyle home. Asheville's lone tally came in the nint running and was the result of Frye's heme run blow" Into the negro bleachers in right field. The game was featured by the, ex cellent pitching of Watson and the poor support gien him with men on Harry Watson was the only player in the game to get more than one safe blow,. Watson;counited twice out of three times up, one of his licks going for two bases. In addition he fielded five chances in fine style. Crane played faultlessly, at short stop accept ing tive difficult chances without a bobble. Box score and summary r GREENSBORO AB R H PO A E 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 6 0 4 0 1 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 off Watson, 2.

C, July 14 Carl Ray was in great for mtoday and "while he held the Maekmen to three scattered hits ihs teammates got next to Hap py Myers for sixteen safe blows for a total of twenty-one bases and won the contest, 7 to 0. Ray worked in fine style, the cloudy weather helping him to a great extent. The portpaw's control was better than usual and his curves were breaking beautifully. 'Pitted against him was Myers and he was powerless, to prevent the lo cals from hitting him when - hits counted. Myers whiffed ten men but Mack caught a rotten game and his inefficient work behind the bat greatly assisted in the undoing of the pitcher He was not able to use the unusual speed that was his today, for Mack was not able to hold on to Myers I fast ones. Roberts then came across with his second two base blow, scoring Ray and counting also when Litchfield al lowed the ball to get through him The seventh and last run Was scored in the seventh frame when Stuart singled to center and took . second on Gates' sacrifice, and third on Spence's infield out, short stop- to first. He scored when Garvin singled by second Raleigh secured two safe licks oft Ray in the first inning and one in the second, but following that there was nothing else doing for the visitors. The Mackrnen never reached second following the close of the second frame. The box score and summary: RALEIGH AB R H PO A E Litchfield, cf 4 0 Mack, c 3 Sliumaker, lb 4 Gooch, rf ..3 Citrano, ss. . .
