Pioneers Have Practice Game With Hartford Grays-Lynch An Enigma
 for VisitOrs-WOman Hurt by Foul

The Pioneers experienced little diff ficulty in defeating a makeshife known as the Hartford Grays at the Ellis street diamond yesterday after noon, the final score of the contest being to S. The visitors started off at a fast clip in the opening round when Joe Fitzpatrick found it difh- cult to locate the platter and this with two good solid wallops netted the Capitol City crowd two runs In the locals half of the inning a quintet of tallies were chased across the pan by mauling Kamm's benders. The locals eased up after this. Fitzpat- rick retired from the game in the third inning and Lynch took his place. The clever portsder was an enigma for the visitors who amassed but two hits during the remainder of the game. Gaudette lead at the bat with three hits, one of which was a two sacker. Eddie Goeb also sharp ened his batting eye. It was an- nounced that the Poli team of Hart ford will be the attraction next Sun- day in the second game of the series between the teams. Blinn was forced to retire from the game in the third
 inning after injuring his ankle slid ing to first base. Mrs. Paul F. Schle- gel of 3S Trinity street, was struck in the face by batted ball and was slightly injured. The score:

Jake's terrific clouting was one of the fac tors in the Canadians success
 Several weeks ago, the work of the local lad again attracted the attention of Manager Fred Mitchell of the Cubs, who ordered his recall at the end of the International league sea- son.

 The locals hit the ball hard, Pot teiger and Lanninf1 having nine put outs, several of them difficult plays, but the hits refused to drop safe. Pillion was finely supported. Both pitchers allowed five hits.
 The contest was marked by some sensational fielding, Joee Griffin, Lan- ming and Potteiger al contributing features. The four named accepted ten hard chances perfectly

WHY SOLDIERS MUST BE FLEx-
IBUE IN MOVEMENT.

Any body of troops must be flexible
in movement, since it may be neces-
sary at any instant to change its pur-
pose or direction. While such a body
without well-defined rules, would be
most cumbersome and unwieldy-if
not impossible-to handle, it must, in
fact, respond to commands more quick
ly and precisely than a boat to its
rudder, or an automobile to its wheel.
A column of troops must not only
learn to turn at an exact right angle,
but, with equal CELEBRITY, it must be
able to shift its movement in any spe-
Gifted direction, even to the exact re-
verse, without losing as much as a
step.
BY the commands, Column right" or
'feft," fright Qeft) turn" "by the
right QefD flank" fright QefD
o5lique," incline to the right Qeft),
and ito the rear" unit may at once
be able to switch direction toward
any desired objective.
When a company is in column of
squads, that is, four men abreast, to
change direction the command "col-
umn right Qeft) march" is given, and
at the word march" the head of the
column turns sharply, at right angle
in the specified direction. This is done
on what is called a moving pivot,
which will later be explained in the
school of the squad. Fright QefD
turn" is executed when company is
in line, that is, fifty-six men abreast,
and the line also turns on moving
pivot to right or left, as the case may
be. fright turn" is executed by a
squad as well as company.

euted, as with all movements, at the

given as the right foot strikes the

degrees to the right or left of his orig
inal front. While he preserves this po-
sition, he keeps his shoulders to the
guide (the man on the right front OF
the line or column), and also he so
regulates his steps that the rank re-

pletely reverses the direction of a col
umn without bringing it to a pause or
a halt. At the command, march, :"
which is given as the right foot strikes
the ground, the soldier advances and
plants the left foot; then he turns to
the right about on the balls of both
feet and Immediately steps off with
the left foot
These are the basic commands of a
soldiers flexibility of movement, and
the recruit who learns to execute them
in unison with his fellows has taken a
decided step on the road that leads to
the accomplished soldier.
