Fra ncisco, and Miss Marie Louise En-
NETT, Of New York.
Both women played better average
pan than the men. going through the
game without errors and batting fair
ly well. When not on the diamond.
they joked with the umpire Hugh N.
Camp, and puzzled him so that he once
called out a batter on a foul tip which
the catcher held Edward H. Filter
declared such ruling entirely wrong,
but the women upheld the umpire.
For beginner the Hon. Kathleen
Beresford, Of Engia nd. did remarkably
well with the American game. She was
short stop. Having no opportunity for
fame in the first inning, she dis
tingUished herself at the bat by fol-
lowing the ball through with her bar,
knocking it into the chest of the as
tonished pitcher, s. H. Witherbee.
There was an interval before the spec
tators grasped the players motive. ana
then everybody laughed heartily. Miss
Beresford said that, being a golfer.
she could not imagine any one trying
to stop the ball, and thought she HAD
to follow through The umpire ex-
planned the game to her. and she was
quick to learn. making hits that We're
good for two bases with her speed on
base lines. -.-
Preston Gibson. who arranged the
game. was the star player. He wore
cricket trousers and pitched. batted
and ran like a professional In the
last inning, when Viscount Sibour
knocked a home run through centre.
Mr.. Gibson. who was pitching, ran with
him to third. and while the helders in
skirtS struggled with the ball the
two marched home in lock step.

the teams at Inglescote at buffet
luncheon before the game. and at the
