Georgetown Universities crack aggre-
cation of baseballists yesterday defeated
Gailaudet by a score of i2 to 5. The man
ner in which the Blue and Grey nine has
| laid low it's opponents thus far in the sea-
son gives it championship earmarks. At
ter the fifth of ths eight innings played
| yesterday there was nothing to the con-
| test but Georgetowll. Up to that time
| the game was fairly even. Hanretty and
| Drake. two substitutes. were given a trial
for the first three innings. after which
they were replaced by Drill and Moran
| Cox, one of Georgetowns new pitchers
was on the rubber for all but the last in
ming. His showing was remarkable He
| struck out nine of the twenty Gallau-
| Diet batsmen who faced him and held them
| down to a tot:A of four hits. The support
| was. however, not what it should have
| been Seven errors were chalized up
| against the Blue and Grey players, who
| did not get into the game with the same
| ginger they displayed Friday in the con-
| test with Lafayette This was perhaps
due TO the fact that it was the fourth
game the team played since Wednesday.
The Mutes played Il ragged fielding
game. The same number of errors placed
against Georgetown married the record
of Gallaudet. Rosson was found for a
total of fourteen hits, including O'Hara's
home run in the eighth. Apperious, the new
Georgetown left fielder, seems to have
clinched his hold on that position. He did
creditable stick work yesterisy. and ham
died nicely all chances which came his
perfume moments. Andree Gallaudets
veteran catcher, did his usual good work.

wild to third in an endeavor to cut off

men faced Rosson. Walsh and o'Hara |
were too bold on the bases, and both were |
