INSTITUTE
TEAM WON

Six to one was the score of the
baseball game between the Military
Institute and Roswell town teams,
played at Amusemtnt Park yesterday
afternoon; but the game was much
closer than this score indicates. The
game was so well fought on both
sides that at no time was there any
surety which was to be the winner
until the last man was out in the
ninth. 1t was the cadets who carried
off the laurel.
Walker, the Institutes new pitch
er, was in the box and made good.
Eight hits were made off of him, but
made by the close right field fence.
At 40 time were they punched. He
passed none, hit no one, and struck
out eight.
Foreman went into the box for the
town team. In two innings he allow
ed but one hit, struck out four and
passed two. The one hit, coupled with
the passes and errors let il two runs,
however. 1t was ForemanS first
game, without practice, and he quit
of his own accord, and Apolonio. of
the Mexican team, went in the box,
allowing nine hits, striking out three
and passing two.
After the two scores by the cadets
in the first inning, not a run was
made on either side until the eighth,
when hit was followed by stolen
base and a two base hit.
In the ninth the cadets again scor-
ed. on bunch of four hits. base
on balls, a stolen base ana an error
running in three.
1t was in the last half of the ninth
that the town team made its run. Le-
land got a two base hit, advanced
base when Jones got down on an er-
ror, and scored on a scratch hit by
Nelson
The cadets played the closest. best
game, making but two errors, but
Fred Wilson of the town team, made
the star record. He had ten chances
with but one error, the latter coming
a nice double but threw wild. Nelson
and Elkins, of the High School team.
did good work for the town team
w. G. Hamilton acted as umpire,
giving general satisfaction. In one or
two instances his decisions on balls
and strikes were greeted with mild
protest from the grand-stand, but he
invariably showed his fair intentions
by squaring it ON another.
There were about a hundred pres
elt, and so well pleased with the
game were they that they applauded
the announcement that the same
