Paris, June 17.-The American
enlisted men who came to France
with Maj. Gen. Pershiug are having
experience with foreign habits, lang

Three Southpaws Are Too
Much for Our Tacoma
Knights.

Two solitary hits and one fluke
run were all that saved the
knights of Columbus ball team OF
Tacoma from generous dish OF
whitewash at Athletic park yes
terday afternoon. A team of base
ball players from the 363rd in
fantry of Camp Lewis brought a
few bats and gloves to town,
warmed up for few minutes, and
then gave those champion SEMI
pros the beating of their sweet
young lives.
And it was a one-sided beat
ing, too. Yes, left sided. Three
pitchers for the soldiers were all
professional ball players, and all
were port siders.
Red" Oldham, who came from
the Frisco Seals to join the SOL
der camp, pitched three innings
without hit or run. Then Eddie
Klein, former Tacoma Tiger
southpaw, Embossed himself for
another three innings, and the
knights didn't get anywhere. Tom
Hickey, a young giant from Santa
Clara, worked the last three in
nings for the soldiers, tanning six
knights and allowing one run in
the ninth when he became slightly
wobbly and his fielders withered.
Henry Murray for the Knights
struck out IL soldier players, but
was not supported well. The
same two teams play next Sun
day at Athletic park, with Suds

the Knights. Yesterdays game
