Two new players have just signed with
the Brooklyn base bali club, both from Cal

Householder, an outfelder.

So much had been expected from the
Golden Eagle and Fat Men AYES in the
match which was played at the latter's
alleys last night that the scores made
were somewhat disappointing. Both teams
are looked upon as among the strongest
in the CITY, composed as they are Of old
materialbowlers who have had experience
in league matches for years. For some
reason, however, only one notable score
was made, that of the Eagles in the second
game when they approached close to 800.
Only FIVE pins kept the home team out OF
three straight defeats, this narrow margin
giving them the victory In the opening
game. The others went to the visiting
team by ample majorities.
The opening game was exceedingly close
at every point until the ninth frame, at
which point the home team. through good
bowling on the part of Hamilton, who Sc
cured fifty-eight pins in the last two
frames, went ahead and won by the small
difference of five pins. In this game, as, in
fact. In all of the games to considerable
extent, the Fat Men suffered from numer-
Gus splits. The score follows:

The Urell Rifles base ball team refused to
play the Carroll Institute team last night,
claiming that Atz and Norcum were pro-
fessionals, as they played in the Southern
Base Ball League last season. Rather than
disappoint the large crowd of spectators
present, the CAROLS picked two teams from
their own institute. The teams were known
as the Murphys and the Lamats, the latter
