On the heels of their first victory last Sunday, the Machine Gunners did it again by taking, the Forum to camp by the small margin of one run, 7 to 6. Porter's boys played B. Ing Sbr. a very good game, while Rapley in G. White c the outfield, shone with his brilliant au 25. fielding. This is the first game in Woo 1b the local League when a real Soft-Herb Quon p ball was used. The distance be G. G. Lee If
Delgado e tween bases were accordingly leng-E Bann zi thened, and the size of the Central British Association's ground helped in making this game the success that it was.
All the participants in this game were in favour of the faster action of the 12 inch ball and it is a cer- tainty that the official Softball ruling will be authorised by the League next
