SPARTAN OVERWHELMED
BY UNION UNIVERSITY

With retuvenated nine that
slammed the bali to al. parts of the
lot and fielded like fiends, Union won
her second straight victory over the
Spartans yesterday afternoon by II
to 0 score The first victory was cap
tured from Petersburg Saturday af-
ternoon. when the Union team won
the contest from the Petersburg boys
on their own battle-ground 10y 10 TO
2 count.
Banks is the twirling hero OF both
contests. pitching superb ball through
out the nine scenes of both tits. In
yesterdays engagement he sent ten
Spartans back to the players bench
via the strike-out route He allowed
only three scattered hits. while Boyd
and Jeffries were pounded on by the
Unionites for eleven safeties Jenkins
happened to grab the largest of these,
lifting the pill over the left field forti-
fieation for complete circuit.
Only once during the entire con.
test did the Spartan team approach
the dangerous--in the eighth frame
with only one man down-Banks
struck an opponent and thus filled the
sacks. The next batter. however mis-
took the ozone for the horsehide. W lille
the last batter knocked an easy fly
to Jenkins.
The Petersburg outfit travels 20
Richmond next Saturday to attempt
an act of vengeance upon Union.
