HOSPITAL WINS AGAIN A total of eight runs in the first in ning took the spirit out of the Fourth Company Motor Mechanics and as a result the hospital team grabbed off an easy victory on Headquarters Reid Sunday afternoon. The final score was 15 to 4 and was accounted for by the heavy hitting of our boys. Zecha, al though a trifle wild, pitched an excel lent game, and also led the hitting at tack with four hits, one being a triple. “Hob” Martin secured a home run which was a fine contribution.

He got four last week too. Watch him closely. “Bill” Wright is nursing a damaged eye. Some one thought his head was harder than a door, but Bill says no, and he has something to prove It by. The entire team is complaining of sore arms. Who will step up and lend a hand in rubbing the boys down af ter games? “We noticed “Oh Me, Oh My” Cun- dlff out this week trying to stage a "come back.” Impossible, Jack, impos sible. Did you get in on the drink Captain Crowe bought for the boys Sunday? Well, the Captain cut off the second auto but Sergeant Dempsey came to the rescue and quenched our thirst. All right, Captain, next time, Joe Lawler tried throwing to the bases Tuesday nl,ght and they went down fairly good. About two more weeks and the ex-leaguer will be in shape. “Hug ’ Lange complains of a bruised hand, sore arm, balky feet, hook-worm, etc., etc. Anything else, “Hug”? Good pitchers are as scarce as radium but we have discovered a find in Sergeant Evans. His hooks and twists had the boys breaking their backs on Tuesday night. If you don’t believe it, ask “Bou.” If “Bob” Martin had run any slow er Sunday, his homer would have gone for a short single. How about taking off 20 pounds. Bob? Will some one suggest a 10-mile run for Bob gome Sunday morning? EVERY BOUT STARTED LIKE HOUSE ON FIRE. A young cyclone was stirred up in the opening seconds of every bout staged by the medical supply men, at the Y. M. C. A. Tuesday night. Blows were fast and furious until the southern atmosphere became too aerid and the gloves grew heavy as lead. “Bull Dog” Greenbaum was forced to resort to mad rushes to hold his own in the closing moments of the middleweight contest against Goldie Rosenshlne. Greenbaum had the edge on science and punch but lost the de cision in the furious two-round go through lack of training. Rosenshlne toolj punishment well in the opening round and was coming fast at the end. Donovan had all the best of Ser geant DePasquale in their friendly two-round go. “Doc” Stockard and McAfee fought a pretty draw. Ser geant Noble and ‘Shrimp ’ Goldslager came out even in the most spectacular match of the evening. They fougnt from whistle to whistle and were hard at it in the final spurt. “Buck” Greene and “Doc” Am i>p- ceived the hearty plaudits of every one of the 85 detachment present when they staged a blind fold match. Many telling blows were delt to the general atmosphere. A knock-out was never in danger. Comrade Shilling presided at the piano during^ the evening and between the bouts he fifl-nished a class of music which had a tendency to heat the blood of all present. IMPROVEMENT. Those of you who saw the team in action yast Sunday could see the 100 per cent difference in apparence of the team caused by the new uni forms. Did’nt they look snappy, as they tore around the bases? And made a difference in their playing too. CAMP THEATRE B. H.
