good season.
RAMS vs.. HAo,
There was "ieeiing 10 the air"
that the Kams would win and there
was no doubt but thet the sympa-
thy OF the spectators, especially the
up-to-date fans, was Within brown
skinned players. The collegians went
to bat and on errors, picked up two
runs, the Honolulus ciphering. In
the 3rd the Kams picked up another
lucky tally. The Honolulu club
seemed slated for.defeat, ciphets be-
ing the only figure placed for the
first three innings. Both clubs we're
playing we'll, the pitchers of each
being batted somewhat freely but
the felders stopped the chanees for
runs. From the 4th to the 9TH in
elusive the Kams took their score in
ciphers, the FL A Cs in the mean
while only adding L. At the COM
mencement OF the 9Th the SCORE
stood even by each nine having
three to its credit. AT the end OF
the 8th the bird of victory which
had seemed ready to nestle with the
Kans flew the coop and rested with
the II A Cs, the latter club making
three runs in this 9Th inning to the
] Rams two, the Kams falling on their
last try in the 9th. The game was a
close one and interesting through
out, ending, 81 A @ 6; Kams S.
