INTERSCHOLASTIC BASEBALL.
CLASSICAL 16. MANUAL S

Yesterday, I'm an easy contest. the Clas-
slca High school team began the season
winning the game from Manual by
score OF is to S.
The contrast in the team work of the
two teams was very noticeable While
Classical played an almost errorless
game the other team put up some very
ragged ball and made several very bad
errors.
The pitchers of both teams did some
good work. though on account OF a
wounded hnger Brooks of the Manual
team did not show up as well az San
Souci Of the Classical team. Tho Manual
pitcher was set back also by reason OF
the shady decisions OF the umpire, Leland
OF Brown university. These decisions were
OF such a rank nature as TO cause a wall
from the spectators interested in both
teams and who wanted TO see fair play
The continued adverse decisions seemed
10 disconcert the Manual players 60 such
on extent that they made poor showing
I'm all parts of the fcid. They were weak
also ~ the bat
The game opened With Classical at bat
and San Souci opened with = hit into left
ield. He stole second and third bases
and scored on passed ball This was
the only run made by either team in the
first inning
In the second West. the first man up
for Classical, reached first on an error
by Stromberg and he scored on a Wild
throw. making Classical two runs TO the
good as Manual went out In quick order
I'm this inning. The third inning was
blank one for either team, but I'm the

Mr.. Bailey replied that he did not think

Mr. Gallinser asked concerning eXecu-
tive orders creating civil service positions
for many hundred employees in the rural

You might have someone In the sen-
ate ask the postmaster general what

a laugh was provoked at this indirect
reference 10 the recent controversy in
the house.
The Panama canal bill occupied the lat

vigorous speech i'm support Of the bill and
was replied To by Mr.. Morgan. The bill
