Gallaudet, L.
As the score indicates, the game of base
ball played on Georgetown Field yesterday
afternoon by the Georgetown and Gallau-
det varsity teams was too one-sided TO be
even halfway interesting, and the
monotony of the even grind was only re-
lieved by the snappy aIl-round fielding
and batting of Georgetown.
The Gallaudets lack most woefulIy the
great essential Of the game, To make a sue
cessfuI effort on the field, and that is team
work. 1t seemed to be ding dong, hit aud
miss, and every man for himself, speaking
now mostly of the fnfield. When the
Georgetown hitters did put ball within
reach the basemen, OF whoever got
chance at il, picked it up, and threw
il somewhere.
Capt. McCarthy's men seemed to revel
in the weather, barehe6ded though they
were, and no hit seemed too hard for them
to handle and no throw too swift. Their
play was in striking contrast to that Of
the visitors, and the men took every OPP
portunity offered to make as much out of
the play as possible, although it was
scarcely fast enough even for practice, and
they played as hard at the end of the last
as at the beginning of the first inning.
They were fast on the base lines, and
daring too, and made their hits when
most needed and threw in some for good
measure.
Georgetown is To be congratulated upon
the strength of its team his year, strong
in every department. and in Walsh, Bach
and CLANCY it has Il trio of twirlers the

on account of the chilly weather the
attendance was only fairly large and what
there was of it, had little or no chance
TO enthuse and only remained to see the
result OF the excellent groundwork laid
out by Coach Joe Kelly.
There were two pla VS. which ina measure,
worked the spectators up TO applause
and these were the double plays, unas-
sisted. by Davis, OF Gallaudet, and by
Lamb to Dawson, Of Georgetown With
a runner on first, the next hitter lined a
high one over first. which landed near
the driveway off right field, but Lamb,
by a good sprint, got under il, and by a
rema rkahle throw to Dawson at first

Georgetown played nearly perfect field
ing game, having only one error, while the
visitors piled up nine yellow ones While
Georgetown piled up twenty-nine hits and
scored until the boys were tired running

Smilau and Erd alternatedih the pitchers

effective, and no one could expect them
to be with such support as they had be
