With three runs across and the tying runs on third and second in the last of the eighth, Almeda, C.C.C. pitcher, regained his “stuff” with only one out and whiffed the next two Leathernecks to clip short the rally. Almeda was the individual star of the game, striking out fifteen men and allowing but five hits, all in the last two in- nings. A. Williams starred at the plate, getting a double and a single in four trips that drove in four tallies. His mates were not idle, however, as they nicked the Marine moundsmen for a total of seven hits and four walks. Kitchens, making his first ap- pearance on the hill for the serv- ice men, pitched a good game except for the second inning when the Campers got to him for five hits and three runs. Two more hits in the eighth were all that Kitchens gave up, but the inability of his teammates to solve Almeda’s offerings cost him the ball game. Goffe, a recent transfer from Quantico, Va., to the Key West Marine Barracks, looked like a “find” at second base. He han- dled five putouts and three as- sists and started the only double play of the game. Marines play the Blue Sox next Sunday at the Naval Station at 2 p. m.
