THE TEXAS "STEER"
U. S. S. TEXAS-0-18-32-1,700.
TEXAS TRAMPLES
PENNSYLVANIA
Starting the first inning with four
runs, the TEXAS STEERS last Satur-
day kept adding to their lead until the
end, and beat the Pennsylvania by the
score of 17 to 11, to advance the team
in the league standing and put the
TEXAS in fifth place.
Every man on the team had his eye
on the ball all of the time, and every-
body got his share of hits. Bartlett and
Allen led the hitting with three base
knocks each out of five trips to the
plate. That figures out in percentages
as about 600 which is good on any man's
ballclub. They we e closely followed by
Tate, Stanton, and Sande-s, who collected
two hits each with four chances. These
performances don't look any less when
we remember that not a man on the
team failed to get himself at least one
hit during the course of the game.
Bartlett's superior pitching undoubt-
edly kept the Pennsylvanians out of the
scoring to a large extent and to him
goes a large measure of credit for the
victory. However the men behind him
on the diamond looked good and picked
up many grounders that might have been
costly. The errors made were so few as
to be overlooked, and none was made
that had any particular bearing on the
finish.
Well done, fellows. The STEER con-gratulates you on

us, and we have done very well. It is for
every man to show now that the ship
has not fallen off in one single respect
while it has been gaining so much in
Gunnery and Engineering prestige. Clean
clothes on and in your bag, a clean ship
and snap in drills will put us over the top
for the entire year.
Remember your own part.

Wonder of wonders, theres is cold
water in the scuttlebutt - it flows. The
decks are lighted; not a bulb is missing..
Clean, cool air swishes through the pass-
ageways. The pumps to the heads are
working. There is no paint on any bulk-
head; the ladders are all down! The
decks are clean and dry. The water in
the washroom actually runs. The dishes
are sparkling; the chow is good. The
Marines aren't shining their buttons.
The sweepers have put away their
brooms and dust pans, still not a
cigarette butt sullies our favorite deck..
Why for; how come? What caused the
scuttlebutt to be cold, what made it run,
who made the First Lieutenant listen to
our trials and tribulations. You guess-
ed it - the Admiral inspects to-day.
