WELAUNDER AND DRY- CLEAN SPORTS CLOTHES IN A WAY THAT RE-

Against an older and more ex- perienced team, the Indians play- ed remarkably well. Their field, jing and catching were excellent

but their batting was excep- tionelly week. T'p to the seventh innings the Indians) bad the game well in hand. the score then being 10-12 in their favour, and would unques- tionably have won the match had!TAINS ALL THEIR aot darkness set in, which caused]] ORGINAL. them to make a series of errors in the eighth and faal innings, leaving the Japanese victors of a well contested game by 16:11 rane.

The Indians are in the hauds of Mr. Vicente E-pins, a once famous Filipino baseball star, and with a little more training and experience they will no doubt bo' able to rank themeel vee, with thei premier teams in the colony.

For the Japanese. Ishimatsu, the pitchar, and Nishida, the short stop, did exceptionally well.

The game was watched by a big! crowd of spectators and the follow- ing tied up for the Indians :-- Catcher, O. Ismail. Pitcher, U. M. Omar. 1st. Buse, S. Sephar. 2nd Base, J. S. Curreem. 3rd Base. J.
