FIGHT DRAWN BATTLE
(Continued from page one)
sight of the enemy, he was really sent
to certain suicide. He did not have the
advantage of surprise, and did not have
a sufficient force to attack Crandall’s
entrenched men.
Meanwhile, Comfort and Sheehy, each
without a platoon and a half, advanced
toward the forces entrenched beyond
the cemetery ridge. Comfort left part
of his forces a little too far behind,
where his men would not be of assist
ance to him. He also exposed his flank
to Eickhoff’s men, according to the um
pires, although the details of this part
of the struggle were difficult to observe.
The party in ambush made the mis
take of staying in the cutting. “The
cutting was good for only one thing—
(to hide in,” said the umpires. “After
they were discovered, and before they
were attacked, Lind and Mullarky should
have shifted positions and drawn up
beyond the hill. Instead, they bunched
their men together behind a red barn.”
At this stage of the fight, Colonel
Leader ruled that Lind and Mullarky
had captured the hill, since Comfort's
forces wore not held together well, and
their position was not good. Comfort
and Sheehy were ruled back 300 yards,
being given four minutes to effect the
retreat.
Two Sides Penalized.
During this time, Crandall's and
Koepke’s forces were in combat, all
the advantage of position. Koepke ad
vanced boldly and drew up in front of
Crandall's forces, and the umpire
penalized Crandall II men and Koepke
28. Waugh had reinforced Crandall,
but then, after this part of (the fight
was over, instead of rushing to the as
sistance of the other platoons of his
side, he dallied.
In spite of the numerous blunders,
Captain Allen said that he felt thnt the
fight was carried on well, except thnt
sit was too slow, and the men did not
.take advantage of their positions.

tertainment for Enthusias
tic Spectators.
More than ‘_'0 swimming enthusiasts,

as many girls entering as any other
class.

day. aud until this time it will not be
known who are the winners.
Life-saving Stunt Feature.
The lug feature of the evening was the
life-saving stunt. The enthusiastic .i i
dienee seemed to receive a great deal
of amusement in watching the four eirls
who entered the contest, trying to untie
their shoes and unfasten 'their gingham
aprons in eight feet of water. As each
contestant succeeded in kicking off a
shoe she was heartily applauded, hi tit
the real task seemed to be in retriev
ing the proper pieces of clothing, which
were scattered around on the bottom of
the tank, and once or twice some one
else’s wearing apparel was brought to
the snrface. However, the girls who
entered the contest were all successful
in accomplishing the feat. They were
Jeannette Moss, Ethel Murray, Helen
Nicolai, and Edna Rice.
