-25th infantry II, 4th Cavalry 2.
Nothing in this post at least seems
to be able to stop the triumphant
march of the 25th infantry ball team.
The 4th cavalry, the one best bet here
TO pull the trick, tried 1t yesterday,
only to be beaten in every stage of
the game. Hickey was on the mound
for the cavalry, and was there with
the goods as far as control and speed
we're concerned, but was fatally def.
cient in head work. He opened the
game to pitch for all he was worth,
and the 18th just let him extend him
self, and then fell ION him for Is
| hits. Every time an infantry man
reached first, he made no attempt to
steal, but helped his team by drawing
at least half a dozen attempts from
Hickey to catch him off the sack
Hickey has not learned the trick as
yet, and his shoulder betrays his in
tention every time he throws to g.
base. He helped the 2sth along by
weakening himself III some so at
tempts to catch runners, and In only
one case was he successful. II Hickey
had attended to his pitching, and left
the blocking of the 18th base runners
to his catcher, Ronowski, whose peg
ping to bases is always marvel of
accuracy and speed, the score of the
game would be considerably smaller.
Hickey sent eight 25th men to the
bench by the strike-out route.
For the 25th,, WateEhouse opened a.
little wild, but settled beautifully, and
after lone single in tie opener held
the Cavalry hitless until the ninth,
when Hickey touched him for little
fly just beyond the reach of Collins
mitt. In the ninth Donaldson came
across with a clean single, scoring
the third hit against the big twirler.
Smock drew pass in the first, stole
second prettily and scored on Cakes
single to left In the ninth, Donald
son singled, stole third on a passed
ball and scored on Fitzpatrick's hot
liner which Williams took out of the
air and which so threw him out of
balance that he could not stop the
runner from third and contented him.
self by catching Fitzpatrick.
The 18th batting game was notable.
Swinton once and Williamson twice
beat out infield hits, Willis hit three
pretty singes, Cross opened the game
with home run, laid down a sacri-
fee bunt in the fifth that brought
across run and finished his day by
a single in the eighth. The hit of
the day was Smiths, who, in the
eighth, with three men on, and two
strikes to the bad, laid down bunt
towards third that went as a hit and
scored Lae runner Donaldson had an
off day and his two errors were costly
to the Cavalry.

Until the slaughter in the seventh
when the Artillery knocked Kaeble
out of the box the First Infantry
Field Artillery game was as pretty
contest as has been shown here this
season. Three fast double plays,
some spectacular fielding by the lod
war horse Byrne, difficult catch of
a foul on both sides all offered menu
that would suit the most fastidious
ball fam Kaeble had replaced Nc
Clure in the third, but it was evident
in the sixth that he was tired. II
when he was seen to be easy money
! for the Artillery batters he had been
withdrawn and De Bolt substituted,
the game would probably have con-
tinued tied Ior the inning, and his
team would not have lost their cour-
age. Seven runs and five hits in an
| inning is enough to take the pluck
out of any team. and with lead of
six runs to overcome, the First In
fantry threw up the fight. Kent and
| Grey were the batting stars of the
game, the latter getting four hits, In
Guiding long home run in five APP
pearances, while Gray took three in
the same numOer of trials Grey
pitched a fine game, allowing but
four hits, two of these, however, be-
ing triples by Mason E., and Burns.
