request was granted by Manager Kel-

to score in the fifth inning. Deaver

Gfroerer at the bat. WEIGH was on

running from first to second, but Deav-
err did not fall in line. The catcher

In the fourth. Michaels, the first man
up, went out, Clayton to big" Taylor.
Brown hit to Rub, who booted the ball
and Brown later reached third. Book

Mcdowell scored Brown with long
drive that Melted him two bags. The
next man up, Leslie, was out, Welch

In the second game some brilliant
fielding was made on both sides, dou-
bles and quick triple play by the
Pine Knots when only two outs We're
needed, being recorded. With all Of
the brilliant playing was some aw-
fui sorry work. Both teams came in
for a share of the dumb playing. Pop
lar Bluff had the game cinched when
the fatal seventh came their way.
When White gave the first two men
up their bases on balls, Manager kel-

the locals sent four runs across the

The determinate West Point that is

the shaper of his destiny, meets him
at the top Of the slope with ominous
silence. He hears no voice, he sees
no portentous figure; but there is COM
municated in some way, through some
medium, the presence of an invisible
authority, cold. inexorable and re.
lentless. Time never wears away this
first feeling; it comes back to every
graduate on returning to West Point.
