So yelled the leathern- lunged peda-

their ball-players exerted every effort
to wrest a victory from the local Stars.
The crowd which witnessed the game
yesterday must have exceeded fifteen
hundred and 1t was the biggest assem-
IDLY that has invaded Punatou pasture |
for many long day. The teachers
were there in force and the faces which
one never misses at baseball game,
lbe the weather wet or fine or the quail
Iity of the play good. bad or indiffer-
ent, were very much in evidence yes
terday.
The visitors nine looked well on pa
per; composing it We're men who learn
ed their ball in some of America s
greatest schools.
The teams were as follows:
Stars-Catcher, j. German; pitcher.
B. JOY; first base. D. Davis; second

The Teachers nine included several
Every fine individual players, but the
team was greatly handicapped by never
having played together before yester-
lday. With practice, their nine would

The Stars did not put their best team
in the field. JOY, who pitched, was

Prior to the game the members OF

ercise The preliminary work of the
4 Stars was clean and snappy, and made
j a very favorable impression with the
onlookers. The Teachers, on the other
hand, appeared to be unsteady, and in
Il their warm-up showed very plainly
that they had not recovered from the
effects of their voyage.
The Stars were firm favorites with
the crowd, and odds of 10 to 6 against
the Teachers were freely laid by these
gentry who cannot enjoy any kind OF
a contest unless they have money on IL.
The teachers, amid tumult of yells

For the visitors Moore, Mason and
Kirk particularly distinguished them
selves. The team as whole is good
one, and with practice would give Ho-
