DEBUTANTES.

II coming events cast their shadows be-
fore, then the season of 19O9-10 will be
what the hrst season OF every new ad-
ministration is, one OF extreme gayety,
and even more. There are new ambas-
sailors. new ministers from foreign lands,
new Cabinet officials, and new people In
the lesser Offices. but the Importance Of
tho debutante stands pre-eminent In this
preoficial season.
There is no White House bud and no
Cabinet bud. for Miss Helen Taft has
gone dutifully back to her studies at
gryn Mawr, and Miss Hldegarde Nagel,
daughter OF the Secretary Of Commerce
and Labor, who has often been an
nounced the past few weeks as 4 Cabinet
bud. has been out for two years,
therefore she cannot be classed among
the buds Of this year There are like
wise no buds in the aInbassadorial cir
Gle, but there are several in the dlpIo-
matte set, rating below the ambassadors
and their families.

SPORTING NOTES
MAYOR OPENS THE GAME
Gary Calumet Team Meets
Defeat at Michigan
City.

In the presence of a large number
Of city officials, and with the home
mayor pitching the first ball, the Gary
Calumet baseball team, Joe Morris ag-
gregation, had the distinction yesterday
of opening the baseball season in
Michigan City.
In the face of so many notables as
that, there is little wonder that the
Gary team lost by the close score of
2 to 0.
Ray Benight, who appeared on the
slab for the Gary team, let his oppo-
nents down with but five hits. and the
Michigan City pitcher was even more
stingy, allowing the steel city aggre-
cation but four. Fielding behind the
pitchers was almost perfect, Michigan
City making no errors and Gary max
ing three. One of them, however, was
costly, in that it lost the game for
them. Not score had been made up
to the eighth inning by either team IN
til Michigan City came to bat in their
half of the eighth. A single and an
error by Schaefer, the Gary first base
man. followed by a double brought in
two runs, by which margin the game
was won.

TOLLESTON VICTORIOUS
Bill Kunert's Understudies
and Old Style Layers
Meet.

The first game of the season at Toll
lesion, yesterday. in the national pas
time. resulted in a victory for the home
team in one of the best games that
Tolleston has seen in years. The bat
tie was distinctly a pitchers duel be-
tween Glen of Tollest ton and BIissmer
of the Old Style Layers, who journeyed
from West Hammond to meet the in
vincible aggregation of Bill Kunert's
unders tudies.
The remarkable feature of the game
is that Glen struck out no less than
nineteen men and BIissmer whitfield as
many as eleven. This means that for
over six innings Glenn could have kept
the West Hammond team hitless and
runless without the aid of another man
on the team except the catcher. Glenn
support was also all that could be asked
for and not an error was recorded
against the Tolleston team in their first
game. One of the four errors by the
visitors resulted in Tolleston's slipping
over the first and only run of the
game in the eighth inning The line
