playing an entire season without an
adverse game. keenly felt the defeat SO
sharply administered, last Thursday
afternoon, by the boys from the United
States Training Ship Chase. They
completely out-classed the home team
in every department with a final score
of Il to 10. A return game was imme-
diately arranged, which was played off.
Saturday afternoon. 1t was then that
the Squirrels with practically the same
team showed what it could do after
two days of hard practice. Mindful of
the sting Of recent defeat which must
be entirely eradicated and led on by a
large and spirited audience. they COM
pletely turned the tables by worsting
the previous champions with a score of
80 to 5. 1t is hoped that Saturdays
game is true indicator of what the
| real strength of Squirrels team will
be this summer. The islanders batted

fast order. The batting orders were as
