closed its season yesterday afternoon by
defeating Gallaudet College at the Y. M. c.
A. park by to 2. The contest was the de-
Gliding one of a series of three between the
two institutions. Gallaudet won the first
game. but fell an easy victim in the other
two. The men from Kendall Green were
scarcely in the game yesterday until the
seventh inning, when the Columbian lads
let down and allowed their opponents to
register a run. They played hard. but
seemed outclassed and would hardly have
scored but for loose playing on the part OF
the victors. Fulcher who was on the rub
Der for Columbian, again proved stumb-
ling block to GalIaudet Only three hits were
secured off his delivery, he gave but two
bases on balls and struck out five batsmen.
Meunier started in to off1ciate in the center
of the diamond for Gallaudet. but in the
fourth inning the opposing batsmen took so
kindly to his delivery that he was shifted
to third. Escherich, who succeeded him,
did better. striking out five men.
Gallaudet went first to bat and the side
was retired at the initial sack Service and
Winchester fell into fast double play, but
Fulcher's hit carried Bieleski across the
plate. Gallaudet went out in order next
turn. Columbian got men on bases, but
mutes in the third the university men
started in with a rush. filling the bases.
but quick double play cut down their as

pitchers helped considerably and Columbian
landed only one more man. In the seventh

good by drawing four bad ones. He went

third and dashed home, while Service was
yelling to Kennedy to field in the ball in
stead of trying to catch Richards. Escher-
ich brought In another run in the eighth.
The side was retired in the ninth inning
