It seems to bo getting a habit tor the 35th Company baseball club to come out with the big end of the score. True to form It came home. tVith the bacon again Sunday, beating the 25th company for the third time. The game was one battle from start to finish, the 35th having to tight ev ery inch but as the game went on they took the usual lead and held it to the finish. Several bad errors were marked up on both sides. Cook, pitching for the 25th Company, pitch ed Al hall but his support was bad. Revillo, pitching for the 36th pitched air-tight ball all through the game. The features were allotted to the heavy hitters of the 35th Company. Berlin leading with fortr hits out of five times up. Arms, Emanuel, Quick Hewitt and Gimble all showed up in regular form. The fact that the 35th reaped sweet revenge from the 33rd was not published. However, the 33rd were forced to suffer ignominious defeat Sunday of last, week to the tune of 14 to 3. They were the only team who has beaten the 35th this season. I.leuts. Culbertson, Cushingham. and Cohn, C. C. C., our First Lieuts., have the hearty congratulations of all men in the 35th Company on their pro motions from second to first lieuten ants. EXTRA.

Horowitz has a' genuine love for cakes. Why he even talks in his sleep about them. Nish is conceded by Rosenbaum to be an important town, because its cap ture was printed jn black tpye in the newspapers. The question that is being debated by Fishman and Rosenbaum Is: "How many sheep are there in the L’nietd States?" As yet they have been un able to get statistics of any value, and until they are enlightened on this subject, both are in a troubled state of mind/ It is suggested that they inquire at the department of agricul ture, Washington, I). C., for answer. Since somebody opened the gate, and In-Fluenza, Scrub Sergeant Wuencnel has been quite busy with his pad and pencil. The "Hay" certainly has looked good to him these nights. The boys want to extend their sin cerest congratulations to Major Wes ton. and w/? all wish him the best of luck and success in his future work. Co. 20 Remarks of Interest A few of the men from Camp Grant have inquired at the Orderly room as io the nightingale. Speak up Cpl. Gluck, if some of us had that voice we’d be proud of it. Sgt. Meyers is not anxious to take part in the singing classes, he believes in avoiding during the quaran tine. Is that why he chews so many cigars and smokes so much tobacco. The boys of Tent 3 are still looking for the fellow who threw the basin in the company street at 3:00 a. m. If the boys from Cqmp Grant "can fight like, they can sing," then Good Night, Germany. Watch them boys from Illinois, Ami the things that they can do. And I know they’ll keep the good work up- rill the war and our work is through. Words and music by Cpl. Stolofsky.
