the .:V[iclgets the Garnets triumphed bythescoreof50to4.Thestarof the Garnet Midgets was Lamb who copped a. first and second place in the fifty and hundred-yard da.:shes re- spectively. H e also ran and showed up very well in the quarter mile re- lay. The Whites had for their star Burt Evans, who took second place in the hurdles.
In the Juniors the \li'bites defeat- eel the Garnets, much to the surprise of everyone present. Munroe, for the former, showed up well by plac- ing "first in both the 220-yard da.:sh and the broad jump. He wa.:s closely followed by his teammate, Mason,
M., who took first place in the hur- clles and second in the 100-yard da.:sh. The Whites, as was predicted, took the Seniors. Smith and Cabell star- reel for them, both with two first

would have trouble.
'rhe ma.in honors of the day, how-
ever, went to Scott, the home mounds- man. H ad he received proper sup- port, the outcome would have been e1·en ·niore elisa.: t.rous, for he struck out a total of fourteen men, and al- most all of our runs came as the re- sultoferrors.
In tl1e eighlli, the game hung by a thread when, with one H argrave run already in home, and two on base, Fisher la.:shed a terrible liner tor wards Southall. "Southy" made a
game effort, but it was a little too high, and, glancing off the top of his glove, rolled slowly towards right field. Before the ball could be re- covered, two more runs had crossed the plate. Had it been only a. few inches lower, a. double play would probably have resulted, which would
have· ended the inning and left us ahead.
First Inning
Barber fanned. Boyd and Luck walked. Loffier died at first, and Lewis struck out.
Hooker was out at first. Taylor reached the initial sack on a single but died at second when Ross hit into _a double play.
