favor.
Clashing with cellar-oeelapant

expected to take the Sailors into
camp and maintain or increase
their first-place margin. How
ever, ardent followers of the
sport claim the. Marines are In
for a tough fight. They base
their prediction on the fact that
the Navy has shown Improvement
with each game and are due" to
break into the victory column to-
night. IF determination means
aything in the way of winning a
ball game, the Sailors should
wallop the Leathernecks. the

suffer defeat. stack up against
the strong NavStas in the twin
bill opener. 1t is generally agreed
the Bafbers face more siren

the nod.
