First Two Games Go
To Visiting Players

Twas Bliss Wllu throw u seVuu'
that brought Bruins home Saturday
afternoon in the initial game be-
tween the Reach Club All-Americans
and the Hawaiian champions, but the
locals had run coming to them and
the grand stand and bleachers could
not have been more enthusiastic had
the tally been the result OF a three
Dagger.
Five TO one was the final score in
the game, and the home players were
on the short end Of the figuring. But
they did not let the visitors get In
any fancy work, and all invitations
to start skyward in the balloon were
politely declined
One OF the features OF the game
was the pitching of Reuter-. the Ha-
waiian slab artist. He sent seven OF
Nike Fishers darling to the bench
and walked only four Graney. who
twirled for the All-Americans, walk
ed one more man than did Reuter-
and caused one less to fan. Reuter-
evidently surprised the visitors some
what.
The Hawaiians went to the bat
first. but, though base hit was
passed out, the man died soon and
the three out" call showed the Ha-
waiians with a big zero on the score
board
The Reach bunch got two base-hits
in the last of the first and converted
both into runs
The second inning saw both teams
shut out without scoring. In the
third the Fisher aggregation made
two base-hlts and scored on both.
No more scoring was done until the
sixth. when the All-Americans again
converted two singles into as many
runs. That settled the scoring as far
as the All-Americans were concerned
The first of the ninth saw both
teams working in earnest. Bruins
managed TO reach first and then
stole second. A wild throw to Sec
ond on Bliss part gave him his open
ing and, before the Reach men had
recovered themselves, he passed In
over the home plate, running at light
ming speed. No more scoring was
done and, the All-Amerlcans already
having a safe lead. the last part OF
the ninth was not played.
There was nothing like the crowd
present that the game deserved, the
threatening weather evidently hav-
ing frightened many people away.
Those who attended were not over
enthusiastic and the home team play
ed with little more encouragement
than was accorded the visitors.
The Reach Club players were rath-
er stiff from the effects of their long
ocean travel. and did not show up ns
well as they doubtless would have
under other conditions. On the 9th
err hand, the local men suffered more
OF less from stage fright.
