In the eighth, however, Surles, with
safe single over shortstop, followed by
a prettilv executed sacrifice by Mill

the second tally and clinched the game
Although they looked dangerous in

first and only time during the contest

. the third sack, the sailors were COM
pletely Outclassed from the start. They

spirit which has marked most of the
! previous contests with the Black and
! GRAY, and while there was manifest
! individual determination to 90 in and
win. the lack of team work was lament
able. Anderson, the big southpaw, had
! been put on the slab bv the coaches for
the navy. and when in the first inning
| he gave Cadet Lyman from Honolulu n
free pass that. after Anderson of the
army team had sacrificed, was turned
| into tally by Whiteside's safe drive
! over third, the sailors seemed TO lose
heart. The two played each other to a
standstill 50 far as scoring went, for the
rest of the game, with the exception of
the eighth, when the other army run
was scored, but straight through the
contest the Hudson River lads showed
to better advantage, and their victory
was earned through better playing.
