rors Evenly Divided Between the
Two Teams-Mutes' Weak Finish.
cation of baseballlsts yesterday defeated
Gallaudet by Il score of IL 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 the eight innings played
| yesterday there was nothing to the con-
| test but Georgetown. Up to that time
| the game was fairly even. Hanretty and
| Drake two substitutes were given trial
! for the first three innings, after which
| they were replaced by Drill and Moran
| Cox, one of Georgetown's new pitchers
| was on the rubber for all but the last in
| ming. His showing was remarkable He
| struck out nine of the twenty-one GaIlau-
| Diet batsmen who faced him and held them
| down to total of four hits. The support
| was, however not what it should have
| been. Seven errors were chaliSed 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 q ragged fielding
game. The same number of erro-s placed
against Georgetown marred 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
creditabe stick work yesterday and han
died nicely all chances which came his
way. Connors made three singles at op-

veteran catcher, did his usual good work.
Georgetown was first TO bat. Hanretty
walked to first base and stole second.
Connors punched out two-bagger, scor-
ing Hanretty. Connors went TO third on
passed ball and came in on O'Hara s
single. after Walsh and Drake had gone
out. Devlin walked and Apperious was re-
tired with his side on an easy grounder.
When the Mutes went to bat Geilfuss lead
off with a single. Berham hit a hot one
to O'Hara. who missed it. Appertous threw
wild to third in an endeayor to cut off
Geilfuss, who, consequently, scored, while !
Barham went to second and was ad- |
Vanced TO third. and scored on a passed |
ball.
Dowling. for Georgetown. was pre-
sented with the initial bag at the open |
ing Of the second, and Immediately pur- |
lolned the second cushion. There he /
stayed while Cox and Hanretty famed. |
On Connor's hit he scored. and GalIaudet |
came in when Connors was cut off at !

balls. WOrley and Neesau hit easy ones
and were retired at first, and Haines
struck out before Muenier could get
home.
The Gecrgetowns drew their only goose
egg OF the game ~ the third. Only four
men faced ROsson. Walsh and O'Hara
were too bold on the bases, and both were
nipped ut second. a base on balls was
the way Gallaudet started off the third
IN which they scored three runs which
placed them two TO the good. GeiIfuss
received the gift, and aided by Cox's mis-
handling of Barhams grounder he went
TO second Hunter famed and placed |
AI< rec on first Rosson singled scoring
Gelifuss and Barham. and n moment Iafs
er another single Dy Alucnier scored An
dree. Cox then steadied down and coolly
proceeded to strike out WorIey and Mel
son, thus placing to his credit three
in the single inning
IN the fourth Georgetown made an ef-
tort to tie the score. but succeeded in
against one Of the best Rosson sent up
and when the fietders had stopped run

DoNilns flew out on high one to third |
aud after Cox went out at first. Moran
was sent TO bat in place of Hanretty. He |
walked to first and then Connors brought
Apperious IN with a single. Walsh made
the final out on a long fly to left
Drill replaced Drake at the catcher's
position and Cox continued his great work
in the next inning by striking out TWO of
the Autes. Another was retired at first
before the sue could score and George

score They managed to do it and in the
performance were materially assisted by
errors on the part of their opponents |
Not single hit was made off ROssOu in |
his inning, but the Gallaudet fielders be-
gan TO throw the bah around in reck-
eSs manner. ApperfOuS crossed the plate |
and the Georgetown Tooters, who had be-
'ome bit alarmed. now took heart in
