BASEBALL. Vt n rr iWBKKKKMj RULY, ever since athletics was introduced into the band of philosphers at high school, all the base ball and foot ball scrubs and in fact everything pertaining to athletics, has been hobbyized and petrified by individuals, and the teams have not been, speaking honestly for once, high school teams. But this year, through the dying efforts of several of the boys, and also with the.aid of many of the bleacherite teachers, the Kansas City High School Athletic Association, U. S. A., was established for several purposes. These were to teach the school how to fight in elections, form a gym, where paper darts could be thrown and dummies killed, and to control and sustain baseball, football, and other bully teams. Through the efforts of this organized body of wooden men, the base ball and track teams were manufactured. As a result of this, both teams are strictly high school, in sentiment, as well as in personal (as evidenced on field day). John Moore, a prominent member of last year’s football team, was elected captain of the baseball bums. lie immediately commenced training and rubbing the boys, and as a consequence had a good team ready to compete against the Manual on field day. But we lost a very hotly contested game, owing to the fact that one of our most influential members was sick, and had been so for a week prior to the game. Anyone will admit, we think, however, that the nine did very well, considering that the captain was not able to participate in the struggle to death, and that the team had had practically no practice at tiddledy-winks for a week before field day. The team, however, is not soured by this defeat and is working hard for several other games which they intend to play this year and possibly to retrieve its honor by' another game with the Manual fat boys. For the Athletic Association has laid the stone, iron, and brick foundation on which Central in future may' contest and win in athletic games from any and every high school academy in this grand state of Mizzouree.
