JACKSON WAS IN
Played Good Ball For Star
Team.
BUT COULDN'T WIN OUT.
st. Louis Players Were
at Their Best.
Out-fieIders Know Their Business.
A Splendid Game With
Few Kicks.

The baseball game of Saturday, be-
tween the Star and st. Louis teams, re-
suited in victory for the students by
a score of II to 6. The playing of the
st. Louis team was much better than
that of the Stars. However, taken all
in all, the game was good one and in
tereSting to watch.
Again there was trouble in getting an
umpire, and the game was delayed
while Captains Thompson and Wilder
looked over the audience to find suit
able man. Finally, Cupid Kalaniana-
ole. for the bases, and w. H. Cornwell,
Jr.. for behind the bat, were prevailed
on to act. 1t seems as if the official
umpire might send out some one to
act in case it is not possible for him
TO get out. Delay puts both the spec
tators and the players in bad humor.
The Stars won the toss and were first
to bat. The teams and batting order
were as follows:
Stars-P Lishman, S.; L. Hart, p;
H. Wilder, c.; s. Mahuka, 2b.; r. Pa
hau, 1b; T. Pryce, 3d.: L. Jackson, If;
S. Woods, CT; d. McNichol, rf.; Bah
bitt, sub.
st. Louis-J Thompson, 2b.; c. Will
lis, 1b.; P. Gleason, S.; B. Lemon, p.;
T. Clark, 3b; ]. Hansman, cf.; c. j.
Holt, If; D. Dayton, c.; w. Sinner
son, IF.
FIRST INNING.
Lishman hit to Gleason, who threw
the ball to first. 1t was too low for
Willis, and Lishman was safe. In at
tempting to reach second, he was
caught by an assist from Dayton to
Hart hit to Thompson, but
could not make first. Wilder likewise
went out on an assist from Thompson
to Willis.
Thompson came to bat first for the
students, and got his base on four
straight balls Thompson tried to steal
second and stopped midway, claiming
that Hart had made a balk. The UNI
pire declared him out. Hart was pitch
ing very wild Willis hit a high fly
out along the left foul line, and it
about foot inside, making the
batter smile. A passed ball. which
could hardly be laid at Wilder's door,
gave Willis second. Gleason few out
to Mahuka. Lemon hit easy to Hart,
who fell and fumbled the ball, giving
the batter second and advancing Willis
third. Clark hit safe past Mahuka, and
Willis and Lemon came in. Clark stole
second. Hansman went out on an as
sist from Lishman to Pahau; two runs.
SECOND INNING.
Lemon was pitching a little wild at
the beginning of this inning. Mahuka
went out on a high fly to Holt. Pahau's
hot grounder to Thompson was well
fielded and sent to Willis to the run
ner's sorrow. Pryce hit slow one to
Lemon for out at first.
Holt got his base on balls. Dayton
went out on a high fly TO Jackson. Holt
had gone to second. He attempted to
get back, but Jackson made a fine
throw to first, which put Holt out. ST.
merson struck out.
THIRD INNING.
Jackson ducked his head, took off his
cap in answer to repeated applause
from the grand stand, and waited to
see what his luck would be. He sent
an easy grounder to Lemon, who FUN
bled it. Thompson was cn watch and
caught the runner at first. Woods took
first on a dead ball. McNichol sent a
very hot grounder past second for one
base. Thompson made beautiful run
ming catch of Lishman's fly. McNichol
tried for second and then attempted to
get back to first, but he could not make
it.

Willis went out on an assist from Ma
huka to first. Gleason got base on balls
