RECORD in the looked Notre Dame's vaunted hitters like wooden men when they faced Kuhn's curves on College Field last Friday and a whirlwind finish won the game for the home camp by a 6 to 5 score. Both sides were guilty of glar ing errors field. M. A. C. wobbled under fly balls and bad throws accounted for much of the trouble the baseball players 'had in taking down the honors. However, "Bub" had the contest. He the whip hand in. the selec displayed complete tion of his victims, striking out fifteen bat ters and spreading this total over the entire lineup presented by the visitors. Four measly hits were registered against his delivery. At least one of them was extremely questionable and another would have been an out with good outfielders in his supporting cast. impartiality throughout Although the two runs scored in the ninth by the Green and White were unquestioned gifts a like number were handed the Irishmen early in the game. Kuhn was up first in the final session. He drew a base on balls and Beckley was sent in to run for him. Falvey on the mound for Notre Dame perpetrated a balk and Beckley went to second, Daley bunt ed on the second ball pitched and both men scored when the pitcher fielded the ball and threw into deep left. Falvey's heave over third base went all the way to the goal line at the north end of the field. Sepaneck contributed to the interest of the afternoon by driving out a double and triple, the both of which went all the way left bleachers in left center. McGivney, hander, weathered in through nings -with varied fortunes but quit when, with one out, Sepaneck tripled in the seventh. Fal vey was more effective but the game after his team mates had presented him with a lead in the eighth. threw away first six to a the M. A. C. Notre Dame.
