MADE CARTER VERY TIRED
Georgetown Runs Away from Yale's
Crack Ball Team.
GOOD WORK BY PITCHER DOWD
Yale's Celebrated Twirler Had An or Day
/. in the Points and Proved An Easy Mark
for the Local Batsmen-G Georgetown Stu
dents We're Crazed with Delight

yiolets were worn in profusion by the root
ers for Yale yesterday afternoon at Capital
Park, but Georgetown won the game with
ridiculous ease and the violets were voted a
hoodoo 10y several young ladies and cast aside
at the close of the game. 1t was decidedly
cold, but the six hundred spectators were
constantly occupied in either stamping or yell
ing SO that some artificial warmth was gained.
A number of pretty girls displayed the blue
and gray of Georgetown, and they had plenty
of cause to smile, for it was Georgetown S
day, Yale being defeated IA to 3
Georgetown played much better game
than in either of the Princeton series, their
batting being much improved. Carter, the
crack college pitcher, was in the points for
Yale, and the latter expected an easy victory.
Carter's reputation was not added to by his
work yesterday. rs he was both wild and In
effective His fast ball was discounted by
his wildness but his drop ball retired seven
batsmen on strikes. The support he received
in the first few innings was calculated to
rattle anyone. and Carter went all to pieces
in the sixth inning, when he forced two men
in by wiidness, besides being touched up Tor
four singles and n homer.
After this inning Carter was glad to get out
of the game, and Toudeau pitched the re-
naming three innings and managed to get
through without hit being made of his de-
livery Quimby and Arbuthnot were, very
much off in their fielding. and as rule their
errors resulted in runs. Greenway handled
Carter's erratic delivery in good style, but the
wearers OF the dark blue did not work well
together and they were further handicapped
by inability to hit the ball.
To Eddie Dowd the credit of winning the
gamo is due. for his pitching was gilt-edged
and his batting a feature. So enthusiastic
were his fellow-students that they crowded
about him after the game and carried him on
their shoulders to the club house. After
ward they marched in a body up Pennsylvania
avenue. letting every one know that George
town had beaten Yale. Dowd's work in the
points was too greal an obstacle for Yale to
overcome. He struck out ten batters and but
six hits were made off him. Three OF these
were punched in the fifth, but by good Held
ing not a run was scored
In only the fourth inning did the visitors
secure any runs. and then they made couple
through an error OF Carlon. The latter made
up for this mistake by several brilliant stops,
while George Mahoney caught and threw to
bases like professional. Dowd's home run
in the sixth inning when the bases were filled
was the last straw that broke Carter's heart.
The hit was beauty over the left Held fence
and set the crowd wild
Georgetown commenced scoring in the
opening inning, when Harley and Carmody
came home on errors by Arbuthnot and Car
ter, a base. ON balls, and Sullivan's single.
In the second the good work was continued,
George Mahoney. McGrath and Harley scor-
ing on errors and two singles. More runs
were cut off by Murphy's catch of Carter's
line hit, the former making double play un-
assisted.
Yale broke the ice in the fourth, when Car
ter and Rediiugton Tailed on a couple of er,
rors by Harley and Carlon. In the next in-
ming Georgetown drew further away by add
ing brace of tallies TO their score on errors
of Quimby and Bigelow. and singles by Car
mody and G.. Mahoney. Hits by Harley. E.
Mahoney, Cotter, Dowd and Carbon. with
three bases on balls and hit by pitcher.
yielded six more in the sixth.
The final run was made by Ed Mahoney. in
the ninth, on Quimby's wild throw. a stolen
base and Carmody's out to left field. The
