Inability to Hit ConseCutiveIy and
Error Lost Game for GeorretoUn

Error Lost Game for Georgetown.
General inability had a great deal to
do with the defeat of Georgetown Var
sity baseball nine yesterday afternoon in
the score of TO 3. 1t was d general ina
bility to hit consecutively or to advan-
tage; a general inability to get together
at critical times This, with a general
lack of good coaching and two disastrous
errors by Moran tells the story of YES
terday's contest, and the loss of a game
which looked for all the world as if it
should have gone in with Georgetowns
string of victories II was as good a
pitchers battle as was Wednesdays
game with Lehigh. This time the visi-
tors had the best end of it and the spIen-
did fielding support which Feany had
helped win rhe game for Yale, whose
players had nine hits off Dowd, while
DOWd's men secured seven hits off Feanv
but these were 50 well scattered that they
hardly effected the score at all 1t will
be remembered that Yale beat George
town last year by the score of 8 to 8. and
for a time II looked as if the blue of
Yale would run up another such score.
Both teams blanked in the opening and
Yale started her scoring in the second by
landing one across the plate. George
town saw this and went il two better in
the third, and it looked as if the blue and
clay might win out, but she was unable

goose eggs to arrange in line for Easter.
Not so with Yale. Feany was improving
with each inning and the splendid support
he had In the field and at the bat won
him the game. The Sons of Eli pushed
two across the home plate in each the
fifth and sixth innings, and thereafter
BANKED.
Dowd, too, was in fine form and his
charge of pace and speed mixture would
have won any ordinary game, and with
good team support yesterday he would
have reached the goal Of his highest am
bition on the diamond, and that is to de-
feat Yale. In the eighth he struck out
Hazen and Camp.

WAS An INTERESTING GAME
Amolc Again Twiris Effective Ball

Visitors Fan the Air-Today the
MOntreaIs Play Here.

The weather ut National Park yester-
day faternoOn was quite chilly and a
goodly portion of fans shivered through
the game 1t was also chilly weather
for Mortons Rochester lads, as the Sen
the New York aggregation. The score
was u TO 4, and the game was interesting
from start to finish despite the large
score tailed by the Wagnerites and the
small one of the visitors.
Amole was in the box at the opening
and pitched superb ball for three innings,
only one hit being made off his delivery,
that being a twO-bagger by Walter.
Dineen went into the box in the fourth.
and held the visitors down to two hits
for three innings, and struck out five
men.
Donovan twirled the last part of the
game. and the Rochesters landed on
him for five hits. He was not well
supported in the field, and the two runs
scored should never have crossed the
plate.
Terkes and Angel were in the box for
Rochester, and the Senators managed to
size up their deliveries for eleven hits.
which, coupled with some loose playing
at times, netted the home team twelve
runs.
The visitors played a good game up to
the fifth inning, when the Senators took
fancy to batting out the curves of
Yerkes, and then the visitors got a slight
case of rattles. and the Senators piled
up five runs before Morton's band recov-
cred playing form
Another feast of batting on the part of
the locals and error-making by the Wis
itors in the sixth gave the Senators am
pie chance to add more talIies to their
side, which they were quick to take ad-
vantage of and piled up five more runs
before the lads from Rochester put out
three men.
The baron slipped his trolley and the
sailor lost his bearings in the eighth
inning. and the result was two more
runs for Rochester. But then, an oc-
casional error by two such players as Sell
bach and Wrigley are pardonabIe.
Bert Myers carried off the batting
honOrs OF the day. He faced the pitcher
five times and made four cracking sin
giles, and reached first on balls the last
time he toed the plate. His record for the
day was as fine as could be asked
Proctor, VINO played first base in Jack
Doyle's place. and gave satisfaction all
around. Kenny is a conner.
Snyder is one of the finest young play
erS that ever donned the wind pad and
heavy mitt. He gives evidence of being
team rather than a record player.
Gettman is another man who plays his
right field in u style that should annoy
! batters with propensity TO drop their
! hits in that particular territory In the
J near future Gettman may shine as a star
/ right fielder. He is also u good hitter and
/ fast base runner.
! Lester German played fair game at
| third base for the visitors. and his stop
in the fifth Of Leahys hot bounder and
quick throw 10 first putting the runner
out, elected the admiration of the audi
ence and players alike.
The game was, on the whole well worth
seeing, and the local boys are rounding
