Tuesday night’s game was a repeti- tion of Monday’s; a team short some players using a makeshift line-up against the regular line-up of their opponents. The Students’ pitchers were unavoidably absent; HOpkins on ac- count of sickness and McKechnie away on vacation. As a result two of the other players, Goodchild and Burnett, had to handle the pitching as best they could, and what the Bachelor batsmen did to their offerings was a crime. In the second inning especially the| Bachelors had a field day. They gar-l nered three walks and six hits (a triple, four doubles and a single) and made them good for ten mm. This added to two scored in the first made 12-0 and the game was in the bag from then on. At that the Students made a fight of it, and got two runs in the second and three in the seventh, but in the mean- time the Bachelors had scored five more and had a lead impossible to overcome. Errors in fielding on the Students’ part also helped run up the large score. Score by innings: Bachelors ........ 210 0 2 0 2 1-1713 2 Students ......... 0 2 0 0 0 0 3-5 8 6 Hockey Club lGâ€"Furniture Co. 3 I On Monday night the Hockey Club took revenge for the trimming the Fac- tory boys handed them last week. It was the game which was cancelled ear- ly in the schedule and was worked in Monday evening to bring the schedule right up tOJdate. With the Factory minus two of their regular line-up things seemed to break against them and the Puck Chasers took full ad- vantage of every chance they got. Timely hitting by the Hockey boys, coupled with fielding errors on the , Factory’s part ran up a large score ”and the game ended 16-3. Judging by the first inning the game should have been a real contest, as each team counted but once, but after that the Hockey Club made it a par- ade. scoring in every inning but the fifth and sixth, while the Furniture Co got one each in the first, fourth and Hockey Club Furniture Co.

We refer to the practise of a‘ number of the fans who attend the softball games, of parking their cars inside the tar limits of the diamond. No doubt it gives the car owner and his guests a fine unobstructed view of the game. but is it fair to the fielders chasing a hard hit ball to have to get! down on their hands and knees, some- times flat on their stomach to retrieve a ball that has rolled under a car parked where it has no business to be. In the past cars have been parked just outside the line and often then a balll will roll among them. but now they' are encroaching on the diamond itself. [To take a concrete case. on Monday evening “Em.” McDonald got a long hit to centre field, and would ordinar- ily have got two or likely three bases. but someone’s car was about fifteen feet inside the diamond and the bail rolled underneath. While the fielder was crawling under the car the batter and two men who were on the bases romped home.
