4th Cavalry 2, list Infantry o.


SCHOFIELD BARRACKS, June L.
That the Cavalry should BE- able to
shut out Lieut.. Sadtler's fast and
usually hard hitting aggregation came
as a surprise yesterday afternoon, but
it was a well deserved victory for
Hickey, the Cavalry pitcher and his
eight hackers. Hickey pitched star
ball until he strained his arm in the
ninth inning. Oaks came in from
right field and took his place. Judd
was on third there was one out, and
two strikes on NJ. Mason, who was at
the bat. 1t was not the first time that
Oaks has been called upon to pull his
team out OF a hole, and he proved
himself equal to the occasion this
time as he has many times before. He
made Mike" Mason bite at the first
ball for his third strike. and when
Lechman hit the second ball he pitch
ed high in the air. to Renowski, the
game was over, the first shut-out OF
the series.
Except for three balls that Donald.
son dropped at first and two wild
pegs by Duncan. the Cavalry's fielding
was perfect. Hickey had an unusual
number of chances and handled them
all we'll. r..
Shomo was a new man in the oOX
for the 1st Infantry, and shows prom
Use of being one of the best. He field
ed his position well, allowed but a
few scattered hits; but was unable
to strike out q single cavalryman.
Heaton let a grounder get by him:
Mount and M. Mason each made a
wild throw, otherwise the 1st Infan
try's play was without fault. Their
chief weakness seemed to be in not
being able to find Hickey's groove.
Cavalry to Play Tie.
The Field Artillery have applied to
postpone their game with the End
Infantry next Wednesday, on account
of half the regiment moving into new
quarters this week. II this game Is
postponed the Cavalry and 25th In
fantry will meet on Wednesday to de-
eide the game that went to the 18th
inning on May 80, when the game was
called on account Of darkness. with
the score Z to 7. Should the Cav.
airy win this game three teams will
be tied for first place. the 25th In
fantry, Coast Defense and Cavalry.
Strong efforts are being made to
schedule one or more games with the
University of California, and it is pos
siblo that they may play at Schofield
the latter part of this week. 1t was
decided by the ost Athletic council
that the team to represent Schofield
against California would be the team
highest in the league at the time, as
it was not deemed advisable to get
up a post team Just for one or two
games in the midst of regimental
series.

 It was remarkable race An nounced as open to all, it drew only youngsters, for the older swimmers rather feared to compete against the speedy boys. Boido took no lead, but stayed with the bunch as they splashed down the first lap. They turned as one swimmer, and started back. Early in the last half of the race, Boido took d lead. and held it manfully. although strongly pushed toward the last by Galpin, who had saved a lot of strength for a spurt Pritchard was third and Quinn fourth.
 The race meet started with Mana ger Maitland Davis experimenting, and F. c. Fitzgerald and Lyle Ab- hOtt as judges. The first event was 50 yard dash for boys of eighteen or under, and was won by Novinger iE the good time of g 3-5 seconds Comstock was second and Butler third

Kid Davis looking to be about ten years old managed to paddle to the middle of the drink where he met strong headwinds and a cross sea. the lat ter caused and made by some en- thusiastic rooters. As his craft took on more and more of the high bows on waves. it became evident he could not possibly be numbered among the survivors. He wasn't.
 Novinger won the diving contest with score of IS out of a possible D. He took part in all the events Jack-knife, backward dive, and front somersault and high dive for form. Norton was second with r, Turpin third with 15, Albert Pinney fourth with 13 and Butler fifth with 12.
