Everything that goes TO make :
first-class ball game was on tap yes
terday afternoon at Athletic Park
Sharp fielding, men on bases often
enough to- keep the rooters in sus
pense. snappy playing and no wrang
les over decisions, and not a run
scored in eleven and half frames
these were some OF the features OF
the game that turned out to be the
best of the year. The p. A. Cs. took
I Stanford's number, but the game was
decided by SO small a margin that II
was anybody's right up TO the moment
that Terry juggled ground ball off
M. Ornellas' bat, while Scott came
across with the winning run.
Two errors figured in the lone tally
that went up on the score board, and
this was a pity, for the game was Sc
fast and SO clean that the fans would
have liked TO see IL won on an earned
run. II seemed too bad that the
splendid game which Maple pitched
should have been lost by the men be-
hind him, but both errors were on
hard chances, and more excusable. not

toward bringing victory to the locals.
The luck Of the game broke better for
Medeiros than 1t did for the Stanford
slabster, though, and his support held
like a rock, except in the first two
frames, and in the eleventh. In both
the first and second innings a man
was perched on third with only one

occasion. striking out the next two

Just out of reach OF the shortstop and

together, and famed Maple, at this
critical stage of the game, when a
single would have meant a pair OF
runs, and almost certainly the game.
The winning run came when only
one was out J. Ornellas came up
first in the last half of the twelfth,
and poled one to Argabrite in center.
Then Scott, who had whitfield three
times in a row, sent rather awk-

to throw.
Banner Crowd.
The game was full of thrills, and
200 wildly enthusiastic fans enjoy
ed them. Not another person could
have got into the grandstand without
the aid OF shoe horn, and almost
every bleacher seat was occupied. Al
though the home team naturally had
the sympathy of the crowd, it was a
fair minded bunch of fans, and any
brilliant play by the collegians was
sure of generous applause. The root
ing was good natured, and no attempt
was made to rag the opposition, or to
send Maple up in the air. 1t was a
gentleman's game throughout, and al
though the Stanfordites thought they
got a little the worst of it on balls
and strikes once or twice, they con-
fined their kicking to greived looks
and helpless GESTURES. There were one
or two close decisions on bases also,
but little kicking on either side. Stay

La Mere caught a beautiful game,

Lots Of Pep.
The Portuguese team playei togeth-
er all the time, and showed lots of pep
and ginger. Souza worked as hard as
usual round the third station, but he
slipped up on his base running in the
third, when he was caught of second
with the bases full and only one gone.
