did Up the Fat Men on tho campus in a
game filled with fun from start to finish.
And what crowd there was there. Over
1000 people.
1t was too hot to play ball, but nearly
all of the players stuck to it for the whole
game. At the commencement of the
seventh inning, with the score 81 to % in
favor of the heavy weights, it was agreed
to play one more inning and stop, what
ever the score might be. The Fat Men,
who took the first turn at bat, went in and
in their half rolled up nine scores. In the
last half the Lean Men made l / rams, win.
ming the game with only one man out.
Throughout the game there were some
pretty plays on both sides.
Hon. c. +. johnson made several diff
cult catches, Though he was unfortunate
enough to be away from his base at the
time and so missed the putouts
Mr.. Ware did some splendid work al
third, always trying for every ball thrown
him or batted his way, and his battin Q
won him the chair given by Rcdington &;
Co.
DR.. Hill pitched good game He used
a slow drop ball which fooled lots of the
Lean Men who would strike long before
the ball was in reach of them.
Charles Wheeler tried for everything at
short and made some handsome catches,
but several times followed them by pooI
throws to bases.
II. Il. Proctor distinguished himself by
his hard hitting and base running.
Prof Rogers covered second base t,
perfection-that is, he stood on it all the
time He did some good stick work
| however, and excellent base running fol
one OF his age.
Frank Brown was one of the heavy
hitters whom the pitchers thought wist
to give bases on balls.
Charles Redington pitched well for thu
Lean Men. His arm got tired in thu
! fifth and he gave way to Fred Arnold
who without doubt would be pronounce,
more of a success as a shortstop than
| pitcher, for when he was In the forme
position he made three or four fine stops
which he followed up with bad throws
Burrill caught splendid game for tn
Lean Men, besides leading the team il
