.- '1'HE BAYONh5'fi i9 THE: INSPECTION. p i' of military service, hospital, artillery, signal 'corps, engineering, etc., and they were all satisfactorily, if not ex- cellently, performed. After these drills was a short platoon, company and battalion drill, in both close and extended order. Dinner and a short rest followed this, and then we were ready for more. ' The afternoon was entirely occupied by military field problems, three in number, namely: Advance guard,' rear guard and outpost. All of the oiiicers taking part in this were thor- oughly, questioned concerning the work, and the way that most of the questions were answered was a credit to the cadetfand to'the'schdol. As it was necessary for Captain Hall to leave at 3:10 'p.V m., our drills were cut short, but every one went down town 'until' 5 'o'clock,.rejoicing that he had passed the test. ., At the request of the few surviving members of 'the Grand Army of the Republic stationed in Germantown, the cadet corps acted as escort in their annual Memorial Day services. The band, of course, went along and showed up well in comparison with the professional band present. The bat- talion wasin' command of 'Major Crane ' andithepvolley firingwhich 'was done as partiiof 'the services, was fine. i With practically no drill' at -all with blanks, the corps did very fwell and deserves to be complimented on its 1 egccellent showing.

o THE BAYONET 21 . A . ,. .,.. ..mu,L,,,m.H.ff .. .- V- 1 ' We played our second game with our boys to iield the ball in old-time Steele High School, of Dayton, and our boys tasted the bitter dregs of defeat for the first time this season. A very heavy rain fell in the morn- ing, and for some time we thought it would be impossible to play. But by 10 o'clock the sun beat down and at 3:30 the team was lined up for battle. Noterman opened the game for us and pitched a good game until the eighth, when he retired to give Reds Weston a chance. The Held was heavy around second, short and third, and this made it very hard for form. johnson was out the slab for Steele, and pitched a good game all the way through. Steele showed up better in the pitching department, but the hitting was about even. Steele's hits came when hits meant runs, and ours were the reverse. The game was very interesting and the count was 3-0 against us until the ninth, when, with the aid of two hits, an error and a sacrifice ily, Steele pushed four runs over the pan. There was no more scoring, for Steele had the game on ice. .. A .i -1gaQ.5fp,..,,,.,,,g H N? i 7 H'mv 'i f' 'm ' 'M TC ifiiiifiorihnt TEAM i Ml A f ar 4c:m,:.al.:', 1 V ,
