LYNCHBURG, VA, May 15.-The game
Of baseball played here this afternoon by
the teams of the Virginia Military Insti-
tute and the Virginia Polytechnic 1nsti-
tute was rather one-sided, for it was evil
dent at the very outset that the boys
from Blacksburg were going to win an
easy victory. The Lexington team made
a plucly fight for the honors, but each
inning saw their hopes grow DINNER and
DINNER, until the most sanguine of them
gave up the day. Naturally the V. p I.
rooters were jubilant, and at every gain
made by their club they shouted them
selves hoarse
In the first inning the Polytechnics made
two runs, and the V. P. l.. in their half
of it, famed out. not a single man reach
ing first base. This was gloomy be-
girner, and with the exception of one
or two slight spurts they had very little
to encourage them from that time to the
end of the game.
The superiority of the Blacksburg team
at the bat told the story of the evening
and gave them brilliant victory, the
score being Is to 5 in their favor. The
official score is as follows:
