By a grand ninth inning rally the Newfields defeated the St. Joseph's in a well played game at the Meadows yesterday 4-3.

In the ninth inning with the score 3-2 in favor of the Joes, Ernie Seyfert and Wendt were sent in to bat for Parks and Mohs. Each drew a pass and advanced on a double steal. Seyfert scored on White's double and Wendt scored a moment later when Dunbar laced out a single.
