Notes & reviews

  • Sweltering $Ladies' Day; paid attendance was about 1,000 of the 12,000 present, comprised mainly of women and children. About 500 boys, members of the knot-hole gang, were in the LF wing of the stand. Freddy Leach fell a victim to the excessive heat and awoke this morning a very sick young man.
  • Over RCF pavilion roof
  • Over RCF pavilion roof
  • Terry: good running catch
  • Smith and Bottomley got their signals crossed
  • Holm fumbled
  • Bottomley was drawn out of position so High ran over to 1B
  • Douthit fumbled
  • Past High
  • Benton avoided Frisch's tag
