yarsity's Stubborn Fight.


SpecaI-The Varsity lined up against
the Atlantic League team from Richmond
to-day The team went on the field
determined 10 give the Cherubs a hard
game. which they did. the final score
being s 10 s. in Richmond's favor.
A change was made in the varsity
line-up. Male was unable to play. owing
TO a bad knee. so Hin. whose finger was
too sore TO catch. took his place i'm right
field. Mallory was also given a chance
in right field. but had no opportunity 10
show what he could do.
Maagum took Hilrs place behind the
bat. but did not show up well. He had
two passed balls and two errors; his
throwing was weak. Stocksdale took
Lutenbergs place on first.
RICHMOND TEAM.
The Richmond team, with the excep-
ton of Dundon, played we'll Leahy, at
second. accepted all his chances. and
Klopf got everything that came his way.
His only error was on hard hit ground
er, and was entirely eXcusable.
Hargrove caught a pretty line drive
over second. Hess. behind the bat,
caught in splendid style His throwing
was hard and accurate Both Schmidt
and Chesbro did well in the box.
Kahn did the heaviest hitting for
home run and two singles.
Kiopf got home run and single. and
Hargrove did the same.
All three IF the Richmond home runs
we're made I'm the second inning. Had the
grounds been larger, two Of these would
have been easy outs. FOR both OF them
barely went over the fence.
'VARSITY'S GOOD INFIELD.
with the exception OF Mangum's work
behind the bat, Virginia put up the best
fielding game seen here for some time.
The whole infeld played snappy ball, and
all their errors were made on very hard
chances
Willis deserves some mention Cor his
all-arouud good work In the field. Steploe
and Martin stopped several hard ones
that looked like safe hits. units work on
first was brilliant
Mangum's poor work behind the bat Is
eXcusable. because he is not In condition.
VIRGINIA HIT WELL.
Virginia's hitting was good. Hunt led
the team with "A two-bagger and two
singles. Last year he was the weakest
hitter on the team. but now promises
10 develop into one of the safe men.
Collier hit n hard drive and took two
bases on II. The Varsity's base running
was poor. Had better judgment been
shown I'm this respect Virginia might
have had the professionals scalp dang
ling AT their belt.
Manager Jake Wells umpred the game
and gave universal satisfaction. Man
ager Peters is negotiating for another
game with the Cherubs tomorrow.
