RANGERS WIN
In a tight soft ball game last
week the Medical Rangers defeated
the Medical Sec. S.C.U. 1911, 9-5
on the losers field. Frank Elias
decided the game in the sixth by
hitting a double with the bases
loaded.
The Rangers are all set-to go
again. They are so sure of victory
that they challenge all comers.

Rivalry Very Intense
A battle royal rages in back of
the Field House about 2 tc 3 times
a week. It’s a war to the finish on
the horseshoe pits between Cpl.
James Shackleton and Pvt. Joe
Jaschina.
Cpl. Shackleton plays a steady
game in much the same manner
as a scientific boxer. He can “out­
point” his opponents. That is he
can put a shoe close to the peg.
Pvt. Jaschina, on the other hand,
can usually clip the post with a few
ringers, knocking his competitor
out of the game.
Neither Cpl. Shackleton nor Pvt.
Jaschina are experts (obviously);
yet they have some close ones. Yes­
sir, the rivalry is very intense.
