On the wind it blew from the North
South East,
And the waves were also blue,
When Paythem Fite made this saying
~ trite
HIM really haven It sufficient height
;4ltg catch the ball you threw aye-oo-
LIE sky is high and the ball flies by,
III Wah Hei Wallabaloo.''
ssA tanager Jessop stood on the deck
I%lAnd he yelled with contorted face:
F'Oh Sailors all if you can It play ball
sF There s something heavy is going to
81 fall,
And you don't splice the, big main
brace, aye OIL
y 1t gives me thirst to watch 'era at
4 first,
So / think that III go below
The sailors mixed up between the
fore royal halliards, the jib lift, the
y, gro Jack yard preventers. the skysail
~ ines, the jigger backstay and the
J %<nv4 yle There was a horrible mess
III looked as though something
WA. Il go by the board. They were just
80 N, things cleared away when a
~ Ny I'm wave swept over the weather
inaaeeItElyl the first thing we knew those
shin .y boys were struggling under the
rrAS' Runwales with the patent water
80, sSl opening and shutting on their
feet. 1t was a storm at sea, a
fej eane and "'never-mind-the equi-
is typhoon that hit them yesterday.
Nv bored hole below her line
let the water out;
more and more with a terrible roar
M ocean in did spout.
H.ey stirred their stumps, they man
gmed the pumps,
they spliced the good main brace.
LHoft and allow they worked, but Oh!
lhe water came in apace.
IA Then up spake their Captain of
VI marines,
He dearly loved his prog;
It's terrible to die but its worse to
be dry,
So l moves as we pipe the grog."
Just what happened to them it is
"a hard to explain but the fact remains,
By that, after scoring two in the first
y inning, they put a granny in their reef
points and the sail carried away.
Seegar and Fite both kept their
heads until towards the end of the
game, even then Seegar did not get
ratified, but it was too much for Fite.
He can handle untold wealth in little
piles of pay without as much as vain
1rrret, but he could not see his boys
founder one by one without hitting the
rattle route and he actually made one
elrror.
The Milwaukee boys did themselves
tmuch less than justice. Rudyard Kip
ling has very clever story about a
4 regiment in India getting the summer
heat bugs in their heads. He starts
out with some dope about girls
school and the gggles and he has re-
corded very much of parallel case.
Something unexplained and inexplic-
Able struck the sea dogs and they went
ITO pieces after the second inning.
{ The Santa Claras played great ball.
! When they saw an opening they stuck
J tbeir fingers in and pulled it open till
they could crawl through. They hit
q Seegar not very much but they mosied
a when the errors came and they seemed
- q know that two errors will surely
fng another directly after. In the
4 til inning they scored three runs
Out hit and tlfey deserved those
4 to runs for they had their weather
-.ss out for errors and they had it
4 all figured out that the felders would
miss. 1t was this essence of good team
work that enabled them to win and it
was very good to see what perfect
rapport there was between all the
~ members of the team.
sis,xe STORY OF THE GAME.
theiie sailors went in first and Kilburn
Ied Tighe with his first four balls.
OF lie got sassy about that time and
sc3lie second and again Kilbbrn walk.
T}a man, in this case, Seegh. Smith
EYiced very pretty single to right
II Nd and Tighe put his helm aweather

&t|r who ran as though somebody told
u IN he had ten days shore leave. But
II ninth was out on steal to second and,

n aiming bee, the inning was over.
When the Santa Claras came up they

Seegar's pitching for Merv Shafer

HVof the second inning. Byrnes
Qfgd and Freine decorated the plate.
Matter singled to left field and Nc

FIfd fairly hard and would never
