St. Bernard. April 2.-(Special )-St. Bernard took both ends of the double Leader with Wills Military Academy when they trimmed the cadets in a game much closer and more exciting than the score would indicate.
 Both teams did good work with the stick, Reilly and BrinslSelle of St. Ber- rard taking the honors with three lcng hits each. while Murray, Meehan, Ching and Schaffer each contributed two timely swats. Matthews and Tay Tor, for Wills, made a pair of drives apiece, one of Taylor's going for three sacks.
 The fielding on both sides was ragged, but here, as in the stick work and pitcidng, the Saints again had the edge.
 The game was anybody's up to the fateful seventh, when walk. two hits and an error brouent in three runs and took the pep out of the Cadets.
 Ching pitched steady game throughout. while Taylor. for the visit ors. though effective at times. was weak in the pinches.
 During the next few weeks St. Der nard goes on the road, taking on Greene, Albany, Morgan Prep and Wills, and then fills the rest of the schedule with home games.
