'LEANS" vs. "OORPULENTS.'
Another mighty contest was pulled
off last Thursday afternoon on Snyder
Field when Captain "Happy's"
"Leans met Captain Johnny's "Cor-
pulents in a game of baseball which,
were it followed in all its exactness,
would revolutionize our national sport.
From the time the first "Lean" tow-
ering in majestic splendor, faced a
j dumpy "Fat" on the mound, the game
j was not lacking in thrills.
Gardner opened for the Leans, being
j later replaced by Wiemers, and Cough-
| ran did the receiving. Edens, Simons,
and Leeson worked for the "Fats."
As for the stars of the game, who can
say? No one could pick out of such a
galaxy of heroes anyone who distin-
guished himself above another. Suffi-
cient be it to say that each worked no-
bly and well and victory fell to the
"Fats*' by the score of 8 to 5 because
they deserved it.
Far be it from us to rob them of the
credit which they deserve, for we would
hate to estimate how many "pounds of
flesh" were lost in that encounter.
To the victor belongs the spoils, but
it seems that there was a woeful lack
of spoils when the smoke cleared away,
which seems to indicate that some of
our S. IT. fans are lacking in a proper
appreciation of good baseball talent.
It was a classy game of ball, however,
and the few "dates" who were there
did not seem to think their time spent

SIGS WIN OVER K. A.'S.
Tuesday, May 23, the Kappa Sigs an-
nexed another victory to their string
when they won from the K. A. 's by the
infinitesmal score of 9 to 8. For a long
time it looked as though the K. A. 's
were going to win the game, and they
n>ade their runs on good baseball, but
they weakened toward the last and a
series of hitting in opportune time seem-
ed to give the Sigs the better margin.
"Cutey" Smith was certainly nomi-
nated with that batting eye of his. Ev-
eryone was surprised to see tne score
so close. The K. A. 's have a good
team, but the Sigs have a better team.
Harry Ellis started the game in grand
style as official pitcher, but not wishing
all the glory divided the honor with
Red Chapman. Gank Mitchell appears
to be hitting the mark of a real good
fielder. A few more games and he will
be real good. Henry Straw, the famous
newspaper reporter, showed that he was
equally good holding down the initial
bag. It is needles sto mention the
stars for the Sigs, because they all
played their usual stellar game. Patsy
Goodlett umpired in great style.
PI K. A.'S WIN CLOSE GAME.
KAPPA SIGS 8; PI KAPPA ALPHAS 5
After netting three remarkable runs
the Pi K. A.'s weakened in the seventh
and allowed the Sigs to crBep right
ahead of them.
The game was so hard fought that
there resulted several injuries. The
game was something on the style of a
small Waterloo or a more modern
Marne. It meant much to the Pi K.
A.'s to win and they tried to win. Poor
batting on the part of the team failed
to get the decision. Several times the
bases were inhabited, but the batters
were not equal to the occasion and re-
tired without much damage. The long-
er Red Chapman pitched the more mys-
tified his balls became. It looked at
the last like the score would be tied,
but the Sigs laid down their foes in a
sensible way. Knickerbocker and
Skins Harris were very instrumental
in the Sigs' runs. The Sigs deserved
to win because they naturally had the
better team, and the victory from the
Pi K. A.'s declared the Sigs winners of
the loving cup.
Batteries: For Sigs, Chapman and
Coughran, Ellis and Harris. For Pi K.
S.'s, E. Clabaugh and Gardner. . Um-
pire, H. .Perrin.
Last Wednesday witnessed one of the
hottest contests ever displayed on Sny-
der Field when the Phi Delta Theta
went down before the Pi Kappa Alphas
by the' close score of 7 to 5.
Each team after delivering its all
with the bat, retired to the field with
as much vim, vigor and vitality as
could be expected from any cold Ginfez.
There were very few errors which took
birth during the fray. Most of the
runs were made from straight baseball
and close base running. The score
took the aspect of a 3 to 2 game until
the last half of the eighth when the
Phis, after summing up all their loose
energy and using several bottles of
"pep," managed to clean the slate.
There was exhibited much enthusiasm
and critisicm, when the Pi's came up
for their last bat. Bounds, who decor-
ated the pitcher's box, walked the first
man and allowed the second to get on
by a close hit, and debted Means, the
wonderful batter for the Pi K. A.'s a
home-run, thus changing the idea of an
extra-inning. Victor was heralded as
the hero of the game, his drive going
over the fence between the K. A. House
and the score board. The Phis came
back strong in their half of the ninth
with two clean hits, but E. Clabaugh
became stingy and broke the game up.
Sam Hay worked well at first, and Mil-
ler deserves special mention for his
three-bagger when the game was young.
J. Leeson worked well behind the for-
tifications and was an important factor
in making Bounds pitch ball. Gardner
and Clabaugh, as usual, played their
steady game.
Umpire, B. Perrin; later replaced by
H. Perrin.
The Sigs won a fast ball game from
the Pi's and take the season by the
perfect percentage of 1000. The game
was rather a decisive battle for 'either*
winning or losing meant much toward' |
the cup. The Pi K. A.'s come second
with the Phis third, leaving the K. A.
champion of the cellar department.
