ing is nothing but sheer murder should have been heard. It will probably be argued that once bull enters the ring he is a gone goose without ghost of a chance. Fact of the matter is that the bull stands an awfully good chance of coming out of the encounter the winner. After all, facing a vicious intelligent enraged animal that travels as fast as a freight and weighs close to half ton with only sword between you and disaster is not the easiest way in the world to make a decent living. The sport really has everything, speed, color, adventure and excitement in big doses. And please don't say that the sport is brutal. We legalize fox hunting and if anything is any more brutal than hunting down a small fox with a pack of scream ing, bloodthirsty dogs then it has not yet been invented.
 The question of Jai Ali is an- other thing. There is scarcely : anyone who would claim that this game is not sporting. It too has it's color and excitement as we'll as bit of danger that makes it even more exciting. For the un- initiated the game goes like this: The equipment used consists of a racket that is shaped something like a question mark and fits over the hand, a ball as soft as
 a concrete walk, lot of guts
 and pair of strong legs. The
 ball is served against a wall by
 one player. On the balls rebound
 the opposing player attempts to
 scoop up the ball in the racket
 and return it to the wall in such a manner that his opponent can
 not get his racket on it. If it sounds too easy then remember that the ball travels on the aver age of sixty miles an hour and one misstep and the cleaners will be picking up pieces of your skull from the floor. It's really a fascinating game, but at pres ent there are, not half dozen courts in the country on which the game is played, and when the game is played native Americans are notable for their absence.

1 e.. j; AND H. TIE

A nine inning pitching duel be- tween Johnny Gutkowsky of "G" Squadron and "Curly" Noto of "H" Squadron, more than con- frmed the rumors that were going around the Base as to who had the better team, "G" or "H". After the ninth inning, it was so dark that the game had to be called. Johnny, with his fast ball and a very effec- tive curve, allowed only 6 scattered hits and if it wasn't for 2 errors the outcome of the game might have been a different story. But
