out with thirty-nine points. This class
surprised nearly everybody at the East
Side college by its victory, for it was
the unanimous opinion Of many that the
sophomore class would head the classes
in points. Summaries:

eighth inning, which gave the winners
the decision and the championship.

More evident than at any time this
year was the courage of Eastern under

play has been characterized by a total
absence of submissiveness, even under
the most trying and hopeless situations.
not apparent Had such been the case.
or had the little Light Blue and White
club not braced with the appearance of
possible defeat. then the championship
might have been tied.
Instead, Eastern kept at the struggle,
though there were occasions when Ad-
ans, the Western pitcher. with baffling
assortment, retired them easily. This
would have stified the courage OF the
average high school team. Following
desperate though apparently hopeless
efforts to even up or surpass the advan-
tage of three Western runs, the Eastern
band began to play in the big eighth
and sent Adams and his teammates into
chaotic despair when four successive hits
counted for one less run. This event
uslly proved enough to add the new
conner, among the elite of high school
baseball champions.
