In order to win we must beeverlastingly on our t oes and forever carrying the fight'tdThe "other fellow, and doing that seemingly ' impossible, thing, which?only a player, who is alert and determined can do. We can’t dream and play base ball. We must be awake and thinking. Nothing much gets by a player of this type, at the bat or in the'field. Solomon Eleury took the mound for our team. In the first seven innings'-h'e^sënt eight batters back to th'e' bench, and this without much effort. Leander Wilson relieved him in the eighth and held the Rooks to one lone hit. 'Dewey Matt, was our heavy hitter, with three safe ondSrtohhis-credit.H1 While Jake Atkins and Coquelle Thompson, followed with two each. Friday the team vyill play Albany, College at Albany and onlSaturday will play the Salem high school here. By the time those I two dates' are with us we hope the effects of the recent I vaccinations have left us and ! the team has acquired a fighting spirit that can’t be beaten. On Friday.},afternôpn our^second, team defeated the Independence high school at Independency 23 to 8. The boys motored oyer in cars, one of which showed up almost fob late'to ,gèt' intô the game, but when the team got Settled ahd int£) their places they played’ errorless ball and repeatedly clouted the ball out of the lot for homei runs. These youpgsters are base ball hungry and promise to set up a mark for the varsity to shoot at. LOCAL A TH L ET IC NOTES | The ability to hit at the opportune time is what really counts in bdseball. The fellow who can step to the plate when men are standing on the bases and clout out a hit is a valuable man. ■ That is what spelled vic tory for the O. A. C. freshmen here hast Saturday afternoon, and the inability of it is what -caused our defeat? "Our hitters failed in the pinch. Our team collected nine hits, but they let eleven men die on the bases.' It was timely hitting that won the game for O. A . C. 6;to ,4. Only one error is chalked up against our team, yet it was apparent their playing was listless. They did not display enough aggressiveness-—the kind that wins ball games, the kind that heads off would-be hits on Don’t take the - “ spring fever.’’ The'painter’s detail are now painting the teachers’ cottage'.
