ball game once more, and the crowd
! which rolled up at the league
grounds yesterday to see the N. G.
II. defeat the U. 8. Marines by
score Of s to was out to enjoy It.
self. and II certainly did.
although In the morning the
weather looked threatening. the aft
ernoon was perfect, and the rain held
of till after dark.
Baseball Is popular In Honolulu.
and there were many OF the fans
from the Athletic Park to be seen
around the grandstand and bleach
lers.
Captain, berger and his merry
bandsmen were present, and the
music which was played was much
appreciated by the spectators OF the
ball game. Lorrin Andrews offici-
ated as scorer, and he kept close tab
on the. points OF the game
Sergeant Barry was a busy man,
and he wore smile of the everlast-
Ing brand. A large number of Ma
rines and Jackies from the battle
ships were seated in the grandstand.
and their joshing of one or two OF
the half-wet team was immense at
times.
The game. which was started right
on the stroke of 3 o'clock, was sud-
den from the first ball pitched. No
less than four runs were scored by
the Guards In their first inning, and
the men to get home were Bushnell.
Henry Chillingworth. Lemon and
Townsend.
Gibson was pitching for the Ma
rines, and he did not seem able to.
get his arm into proper shape. Old.
reliable Anderson was catching. and
he was. OF course, good.> His broken
finger looks a trife better, although
II is not as straight as It might be-.
The Marines. in their first. went
out one, two. three, and things
began to look bad for them.
There was no further scoring till
the first half OF the fourth, when.
strange to .say, the Guards again
compiled four. runs. Bushnell, with
Soares and EN- Sue on bases, hit a
two-bagger and Soares came home.
Then Chillingworth got to second on
a high hit which should have. been
caught by either first or second base
! man. but the ball was allowed to
drop between the two men, and En-
Sue dashed over the home plate.
Bushnell advanced to third. and then
got home on a passed ball. Lemon
hunted and got to first safe, and
"Kiddo" Chillingworth scored.
In their half OF the fourth in
ring. the Marines made the only run
scored by them during the game.
Slorp did the scoring when two lives
had bGen lost.
Then for inning after inning. no
one got home, and although the
Guards looked like scoring once or
twice. the game ended s to 1.
Williams and Soares formed the
battery for the Guards. and they
both did good work. Williams hard
ly let himself out to his full pace.
and. seeing that his team had the
game cinched. took things fairly
keasy.
Red" Of the Marines expressed
his opinion that Williams was the
easiest pitcher to hit that he had
ever come across. Red" however.
did nothing in the scoring line, and
generally managed to fall into "a
trap laid by Williams.
/ Williams Is really good pitch
err, and when the necessity arises.
can do much better work than he
did yesterday.
Gibson had an of day. and did not
seem able to do good work. At the
beginning OF the nth inning he was
relieved by Hines, who prevented
any more scoring.
Sam Hop took his life In his hands
when he agreed to act as umpire.
Samuel made several mistakes. but
both mines got about the same deal.
as Sammy evened things up In some
way or another.
Sergeant Barry Is satisfied with
the game put up by his men. and al
ready looks to the scalp of the fleet
combined nine as being In his pos
session. As far as the Outlaws" OF
Leilehua are concerned. Barry says
that II they really would like to be
whitewashed, they had better come
to town and buck against the
Guards. a..
II the rain keeps OF there will be
plenty of baseball during the present
week, and some Of the games should
be 'really good.
Snakes" Schaefer is said to be
In great form. and his bunch from
the West Virginia will certainly
make the Guards extend themselves.
The Denver and Galveston have
