ia TERRA. Uncle Sans boys. however
Were found to be hard proposition to de-
feat, as other people have long before
now discovered. AS was expected, the
soldiers were the victors: the score standing
8 to 5.
Both teams must be congratulated on
their good all round play. Tne only criti.
cism than can fairly be made, is that the
soldiers took too many chances in their base
running, and their oponents fumbled the ball
several times in the fielding.
No wonder the game resulted as it did,
seeing that the redoubtable pitcher for the
soldiers is indeed battery himself. Who
could stand his bombardment? The Plaza
mine has wonderfully improved OF late and
with little practice should be really formi.
