I sens. and the result was that the team
played winning ball.
Jimmie Mcdowell. who did the receivins
tori the 'varsitys. played 4 clever game.
noted for his hunts. Mclean. who played
the third sack. put up "A good game. al
though he did not come up Ia his last years
s'anda:i in his batting average.
Bridget" Donohoc. tn crack shortstop
OF the blLe ard white team, put up an all
round good game. and leads all the local col
lego shcrtstops. both at the bat and in The
I iieid.
As 10 the feeders of the team. Gummers-
bach. in left. played about the best all
round game. although Mekeowm. in center.

urst :esr ost.
1sight field WAS changed about conS,dera-
bly,. and for several games this was the
weak spot of the team.
Schumacher. who was being tiled out as
Il pitcher On the team. was finally placed In
the rieht garden and played "a good game In
this position.
THE team loses this year by graduation
five Of its m~emhers-Burke. Mcdowell. Pen
nington. ,iummvTshach md Donohoe. and
these men will be hard To replace.
The only meets IF interest now are the
field day. To he held this afternoon by the
E.hernians at the Fair Grounds. and the
annual games held 10y the Scottish Clans at
Ramona Park. on July I. and the Irish Ma
ttonal!sts in the fall.
The meet tins afternoon will be Of much
interest To the lovers of the sport. as John
Flanagan. the champion hammer-thrower
Of the world. will give an exhibition.
The entries for the meet are the largest
~ sUy 50 far held. and all the crack ath-
lctos Of the city are entered In this after
Moons game. Mccarthy, the crack long-d!s-
lance runner, who failed TO enter the Triple
As meet yesterday afternoon. will run this
afternoon. and the light between him and
Harry kiener in the longer races should be
worth going miles IL see.
Steve Doherty, the crack hurdler at the
college. viii also compete in this after
Moons games. and VIII make things quite
interesting for the other contestants in the
race. as he is clearing the sticks in fine
form.
The failure Of Henry Jackson. G. b. C.'s
champion all-rourd athlete. To enter the ST.
Louis Amateur Athletic Associations meet
was a great disappointment. as it was
thought that he had a coed chance Of win
uinL the pole vault
jackson is one Of the most conscientious
workers In training OF any athlete in the
city. and. in fact. he oyerdoes his work.
An athlete who can make the records that
jackson made In the pole vault and the
broad jump and at the same time try to
play ball is very foolish. as he will I'M
douhte3ly do himself more injury than
good. Hans Wulf. the all-round mi
athlete of the 1nterscholastic League. is en-
tered in this afternoons meet. and. with
MS handicap In the pole vault. he should
put UP a stiff fight in this event with the
scratch men for first honors.
The feature OF this afternoons meet will
lie In the long-dis;ance runs, when Harry
kiener. who holds the championship Of
the city. will meet Mccarthy. the crack
long distance runner of the intercollegiate
meet. Both men will start from the scratch
mark. and the half and mile races should
be the best long-distance events that have
ever been seen in this city.
