An All-Washington Eleven to Play
Baltimofeans.
PREPARING FOR CHRISTMAS GAME
=
Brooklyn Club Owners and the
League.
FUTURE OF BASE BALL

Preparations for Christmas day foot ball
game between the "All-Washington' and
'All-Baltimore' teams at National Park
are nearly complete. The grounds have
been carefully gone over and remeasured,
and everything possible has been done to
put them in the hest of condition for the
game.
Most of the out-of-town collegians who
viii play with the All IVA shngton' team
have arrived in town ard will commence
practicing with the team today. Cy. Cum
mirgs of this years Georgetown varsity
team, who has been elected captain of the
All Washington eleven, will line up his
men in practice for the first time today and
will keep them regularly at 1t until the day
of the game.
The directors OF the Y NJ c. A. have
placed that associations park and running
track at the disposal of the Washington
hcys. and there will be no lack of practice
or condition on Xmas day.
Manager Lambie came over from Balti-
more last night for consultation with Man
ager Nicholson, and states that his team
will be the very best ever turned out OF
Baltimore. He says he has enough of the
Poe family alone to beat any team from
this city. Three members of that famous
fa mily will participate in the game, Nelson
Poe, Arthur Poe and Gresham Poe all OF
whom are exPrinceton players. Arthur
Poe will be remembered as making the re-
markable drop kick from the field which
the game for his team this year
iale-Prnceton contest, and who ran eighty
yards for touch down through the whole
Yale team in the contest of 1899 between
the same elevens.
HiI.kle and South, the heavyweight backs
of the Baltimore Medical College, who made
such a reputation this year, will also be in
the game, to say nothing of Penton eX-
captain University of Virginia; Burlingame,
the wrestler, formerly of University of Flr
ginia and Whitaker, this years captain
and full back of University of Maryland.
1t has been determined to call the game
at 3 pm. SHARP, which will enable specta-
tors to see game of two full halves and
at the same time be home in time to enjoy
their Xmas dinner.

WON BY THE VISITORS.
Carroll Institute Defeated by Penn
syIvania Normal School.

syIvania Normal school.
In an exceptionally fast and fierce game
of basket ball last night at Carroll Hail.
the Institute team was unable to prevent
the Pennsylvania State Normal School team
of Bloomsbury, Pa, from carrying off a
victory before 200 wildly enthusiastic spec
tators. The local players struggled gamely.
but were overmatched by the weight and
physical strength of their opponents. who
seemed to grow stronger as the game pro-
crossed.
Both teams started out with rush and
played on nearly even terms during the
first half, the score al its finish being to
in favor of Bloomsbury The Pennsyl-
vanians tried to make the game a runaway
match with an open style of play, but were
superbly foiled in the first half by the fine
close-order work of Guista, Capt. Burbrick
and Lynch. However, the game grew so
swift at times that the CAROLS were re-
peatedly forced to substitute fresh players
into the game, thus materially decreasing
its team work
Through its superior stamina and lasting
speed Bloomsbury prevailed In Its open
methods in the second half and easily won
out with additional points through
beautiful passing tactics. Bloomsbury Sc
cured its points mostly through the fine
passing and accurate handling of the ball
by Capt. Ohinger, Lewis and lsaacs. Car
rolls scores are due mostly to the fine
throwing Of Burbrick and Pierson.
