BASEBALL. SEASON IN REVIEW
(Continued from page 1)
sion. This game saw Jennings pole
two home runs over the fence, Per-
kins one, and Brassell one. Lyons
also featured with a two bagger and
a three bagger. Our second game
v ith Howard Payne ended three to
two in their favor. This game was
piayed in Brownwood. The game
should have been ours, but the um-
pire chose io make a few bum deci-
sions against the Bobcats who de-
served a victory. Every man played
a good game and we deserved to win.
The next day the Bobcats came back
strong and after ten innings of play
the game score stood ten to ten. Cap -
tain Soyars made himself famous in
fiiis game by his excellent hitting.
When the team arrived at Canyon
rext day, after traveling all night, of
course they were in no condition to
play, but n'ever-the-less put up a good
game, losing by the score of ten to
six. Jennings started in the box but
was relieved by Ivey in the fifth.
Snake became the hero of the hour
when he knocked a home run with
two men on bases. We hate to give
ahbies but there are two perfectly
good ones in this case, two much
wind and sand and a loss of sleep.
At Clarendon the Bobcats had no
trouble at all, winning both games.
Perkins, who had not pitched any a"
all during the season went into the
box for the first game, and pitched
shutout hall. The score was three to
nothing. Two of the runs were pre -
Rented to us by Clarendon by her
errors, while the third one was by
two hits and a three bagger by Jeff.
The second game started off with
Clarendon in the lead, but they were
overtaken by the Bobcats in the fifth

The Moonlight
Sonata
Saturday, May 21, is a never to be
forgotten date in the history of Garth.
House. On that afternoon and night
1 he long planned and looked for pic-
nic took place at New Braunfels. The
c owd gathered on Garth corner’ and
after much managing, planning and
heated discussions, the crowd got off.
Upon arriving at Landa’s Park, noses
were counted to be1 sure all were pre-
sent. The crowd scattered to enjoy
themselves by twos, according to
their respective wishes. It was in-
teresting to see where these wishes
ltd or called them, some to the moon-
light river, and still others, the wise,
to hang around the eats, as they said
to keep hungry folks like you and I
from eating before time. The last
mentioned crowd found temptation
too much, resulting in a considerable
loss in weight of the boxes, from
numerous pieces of cake and banan-
as Somehow the crowd by common
instinct came together at 9:20 result-
ing in the entire emptiness of the
aiorem ntioned boxes. We all wish
to recommend our Official Chaper-
one, Mrs. Preston. We all unite in
saying she is the best chaperone yet
Time certainly flies on something
faster than wings in New Braunfels.
Ay e wish to recommend New Braun-
fels to those who have more time
than they know what to do with. The
drive home in the moonlight was
enough to make staid people like us
romantic. From the report of Doris
Simms it must have been romantic,
the party broke up with Miss Jenny s
‘ You’ve been out late enough, girls.”
I he ci owd separated with many *‘au
revoirs.” Those present were Misses
Doris Simms, Florence Kress, Mary
Barber, Lillian Raube, Gladys Fowler,
I’ess Burnett, Maude Burnam, Ann

the game to San Marcos on a tech-
nicality which we will not explain
here.
Upon returning home the team’s
fust game was with Academy on their
field. Just to show them that they
could play ball, the Bobcats cleaned
them fifteen to two.
Saturday, May 14, the Bobcats went
to Southwestern for a return game
and were defeated 10 to 3. The
game was a much better one than
the score indicates, Perkins in the
box kept the hits well scattered and
pitched a good game thruout. The
feature of the game was a two bagger
by fehands which scored two runs.
Jennings relieved Perkins in the
eighth and retired the side in order.
To wind up the season two games
were played with Academy. They
were both won easily by the Bobcats.
The first one on Academy field with
Cy in the box, was easy, he holding
Academy thruout the game. The
final score was 9 to 1. Jeff featur-
ed with a home run on the bluff
with nobody on. The second game
on Evans Field saw the Bobcats wind
up the season with a victory 10 to 1
with Perkins in the box. Perkins
had them on the hip thruout the
game and was never in danger.
In conclusion we wish to say that
tne team certainly does appreciate
the work of Mr. McWilliams and Mr.
Sheffield for putting out a winning
team.
