showed at this early stage Of the rame

ucle OF ball that the professionals were
compelled TO hustle 10 keep in line.
Az the outset. the Senators began 20
take most kindly TO Fay's benders and
horribly assaulted and maItreated his
pet curves before the first inning was
wen started That inning was a night
mare Tor Fay. and the other members
OF the Georgetown team Before tho
senators had become weary Of trottinr
around the sacks. there was a we'll
beaten track leading from bag TO bag
and i've big footprints were made IN

eight or nine hundred. sat on tbs
preachers while a number of persor-.
sat beneath the shade OF The sr.,d
stand a large number OF students from
the Blue and Gray institution trudeed
OUT TO see their confreres lick the Sen
aIorial tribe. but they were mistaken in
uneir surmise. and no one denied their

KIND OF a team Washington really has
this year. and II the material iustf-
nes the numerous press notices tho

there was a resounding smack as ir the 4
business end OF a Georgia mule was 4

The sphere was seen whizzing through /
space toward left field and when 1t /
reached mother earth IL was far be-
yond the left field fence. Ryan and |
Demont walked home. while Fatty
seIbach tried his luck as a pedestrian
and completed the circuit in two min
