AVIATORS TRIM

SCOREOFl2-

n
at the hands of the aviators from Sou
sher Field, who rolled up twelve runs
while the school lads succeeded in
crossing the home canvas seven times.
The game was much better than the
score indicates, and both pitchers de-
served much lower scores. Sample
for the birdmen, had bit the better
end of the argument, striking out thir-
teen of the Rees park boys. while Bar
new Ball sent ten of the soldiers to
the bench who couldn't find the pill.
Both teams felded rather loosely, but
frightened when the pinches arrived,
and held down the score.
Gardner, the pIucky third baseman
of the schoolboys, played wonderful
game, and was the individual star of
the game. Of his three hits two were
doubles, and he tailed three times.
Cheek, for the visitors, played a fine
game.
Here's the way it happened:
