sides. The Higl school played an

cadets scored one in the first, tae
| HIGH school two in the fifth, waen
they were in the lead for two innings
but in the eighth the cadets went a.
head again with two more scores and
in the ninth put on the fourth one.

score, the High school mad harder
work to do, all through the game.
Time and again the cadets had men
on the base, putting things in bad
condition for tae High school, but the
students settled nearly every time
and prevented a score when the bases
were occupied. The cadets had the
same thing to contend with in three
innings, when the side was retired
