College vs.. Petersburg.
PETERSBURG. VA. August Especial.
They came from the classic cloisters OF
Richmond College looking smiling and
confident and they went back looking
the same way. They defeated the Farm
ers, and they were proud of 1t, as Well
they might be. for it was a battle royal
from start to finish Both sides played
well. but luck was against the home team
Whenever the visitors were at the bat
the goddess Of chance was ever present,
but when our boys came in she went
over and hirted with the man that takes
the money at the grand-stand. At the
end Of the ninth inning the score stood
to O. and an extra inning was necessary
TO decide the contest. our boys failed 10
score in the tenth. and the Spiders came
I'm for their turn. Johnson hit safely and
O'Hara waltzed to the plate. After two
strikes and three balls had been called
ne knocked the ball over the left field
fence for a home run, thus winning the
x re.
II may be safely said that O'Hara won
the game for the College. for IN addition
10 making the winning run he covered
second base in splendid style, two Of his
stops. being Of the phenomenal kind.
Ouarles and Smith did the battery work
FOR the Petersburgs. and did 1t in fine
style.
Quarles pitched one Of the best games
of his life, only six hits being made by
the opposing side. and Smith caught him
with the steadiness Of a veteran Brodie
was a little ragged I'm the first part OF the
game. but he braced up and played
beautiful game stopping two red-hot
liners that meant hits. Ford had 9lisht
attack Of slow fever and did not pan out
well at third Keefer made pretty stop
of a liner. and Mccain played wen at
second. Stafford. the new centre fielder,
covered his position well and made a sood
impression Johnson, the ex-Noung Men IS
Christian Association pitcher twirled Tor
the visitors, and held the PetersDuiss
down TO five hits. Hodge caught In eN-
cellent stvle. not having an error charged
against him. Bahen at third and Fhillips
NJ short were not IN good trim, ana they
kept Scott busy handling their wiz
throws.
The College outfield played perfectly.
The game was ond Of the most exciting
nlaved here this season, and the cranks
cheered themselves hoarse.
