xaft the seventh inning. The latter was

There was high wind throughout the
~me which rendered good fielding inn
s,...ble. and this is largely responsible for
4. amber Of errors on each side. Not

,sslksd up against him. Teddy Gamble
,sged really brilliant game at short.
"a .ith the assistance of Atkinson,

i. the bat there was a general weakness,

BIZ hard, bat right at the Stanford fielders
The siansord's fielding was. like that Of

Lewis distinguished themselves by their
eaick handling of the ball when il went
10 the ouifeId. With the stick the whole
team did great execution. Everybody
took one or more slices of the pie, the
nurabes 10 each man running all the way
from enc 10 four. Campbell, Dyer. Wal
ton and Weldon were particularly we'll
supplied in this respect. Weldon pitched
strong game throughout, having good
control and keeping the hitting from be-
Ing punched, although the ball was raped
pretty bard at times.
Matters looked serious when Stanford
scored 10 the first inning. Lewis was hit
By pitched bail, stole second and came
hone on Dyer's scratch three-bagger TO
right field. The sky cleared somewhat

Than things driited along to the fourth
inning. when Stanford struck a batting
streak which resulted in three runs. After
lhas they were never headed. They made
Two IN the iifth and one in the sixth. In
he seventh they started perfect fusiIade
Il biting, which along with some loose
fsding resulted in I've runs. After Small

he eighth, but rested in the ninth.
The home team struggled brsvely TO
