opening Headquarters defense settled down,and principally by the
classy hurling of Clark made the rest of the meleo a battle,Max
well, Harney,And'v,and lvieok scarred for f'E1’ Co,,while Eidiitz,Hill
son, and Clark were the stellar performer*: for Headquarters* All
of the ,,EM Co,men played their usual steady game,and showed a
nicely balanced ball team,while Hq,Co*,testing out many new play
ers showed evidence that nTexH Nimitz will have a classy aggrega

will make her opposing companies step some to beat her gang.

Wednesday afternoon’s game .between Co," En and Co,"F’^ was
a walkaway for the ’’E*’ Co.tossers. The O.J.dtimers piled up 14 coun
ters before the Umps stopped the slaughter*and ’’F" failed to cross
the pan even once, L,Jones,pitching for "E:{ hal "F" eating out of
his hand,and was in trouble only once or twice * Andy, Maxwe 11, and
Harney played the ball for ,rEn Co,,while Crar.t, catching his 1st
game on the Post,Knorr,and Butler played all the ball that was
shown by Co *T,F" .Blackburn contributed a circus catch that was a
pippin.
In spite of the fact, that Semi-Official Scorer "Slim" Dan
iels became cross-eyed watching "E" Oo.men scamper across the plate,
and the score-book almost gave out under the strain,the following
remnants of the box .score were rescued from the wreck,
