TWAS A TWlRLERS' BATTLE
Fulcher and Drill Divide Box Honors
From Start to Finish and Both
Teams Play Fast Ball.

Georgetown's sturdy basebalists re-
ceived the scare of their careers yes
terday afternoon when they lined up
against and came within an ace of being
defeated by the stalwart sons CT old Co.
lumbar University. The doughty wear
ers of the Blue and Gray had moderated
the Orange and Blue lads. and the West
End collegians were greatly surprised
when they found that the best they
could do was to come out of the game
with the bare margin of one run. the
score standing to in favor of George
town.
1t was the last home game OF the Blue
and Gray team and Graduate Manager
Thompson and Manager Miller of the
baseball team thought 1t most appro-
PIRATE that game between the two
foremost local institutions should
bring the season to an end. The
Georgetowners had high hopes of
showing their opponents under by a
large score, but such idle hopes were
banished after an inning or two. for it
required just that long for them to re-
alize that they were up against a tough
proposition, and that Fulcher's delivery
was more of a Chinese puzzle than they
had calculated upon

numerous occasions.

night to take some action to prevent
waste of water. There are no water in
spectors to examine fixtures and require
repairs where leaks are found. It
Is not known how much waste may be
attributed to this source. but it appears
that in sprinkling lawns. gardens, and
streets during the continued dry wealth
er, there has been a prodigality that
lowers the supply beyond what the
council considers prudent.
st the meeting, Edward Mcfarland re-
signed as bailiff, not being able to de-
vote the necessary time to the duties
of the office Charles ". Barr was
elected in his stead. He was instructed
to give particular attention to waste
of water, and to enforce the ordinance
which allows sprinkling only between

Fulcher's Elusive Blenders.

FuIcher's Blenders were OF the most
elusive sort, and the Georgetowners tied
their spinal cords in knots when they
reached for the curves and missed
them. Little Fulcher is heady twirler.
and sizes up every batsman who faces
him. Throughout the game safeties
were as hard 10 find as hens teeth, and
Fulcher made them even harder to find
after he got into working harness. One
thing conmendable which he did was TO
make the Georgetown lads hit to the in
field. Twenty-Five batted balls remained
on the inside of the diamond. They
were divided up in this wise: Rymond.

and was easily the brightest star OF the
game, had eleven chances. He accepted
ten of these. all of which were difficult
and hard to handle. In the fifth a hot
bounder was waved to his territory by
Apperious. Morgan was on first at the
time, and In his anxiety TO make dou-
BILE play Rymond became muddIed and
made an error by failing TO accept the
chance. Bielaski, the captain OF the

Columbian's Stick Work.

At the bat Columbians sons proved that
they were just as good as their OPP
ponents. In the third inning Heine got
to second on Morgan's wild throw and
when Everett ripped off a warm single
to left garden Heine tailed, scoring
Columbian's initial run and tying the
score. Raymond got to first in the fourth
by tearing off a single, and the elongated
Kennedy moored him home with hit to
left pasture. Those were the only two
innings in which Columbian disturbed the
dust around the counting block. Fulcher
who is as good a batter as he is pitch
er, obtained two timely hits during the
performance. while the jocular Heine
also won applause for his safe bingle
before the final curtain fell. The batting
done by the Columbians all through the
game was timely and done when it was
most needed

Little Earnest at second had six

way Morgan accepted six chances, but
made a wild throw to first early in the
game. Apperious, who has been out of
the game for some time was behind the
hat, and acquitted himself admirably In
the first inning before Eulcher had got
ten warmed up, he fioated one over the
center OF the plate. and Georgetown's
doughty captain promptly lambasted il
10 the suburban territory meath the
shade of the sheltering palms, on the
eIDbankment at the end of the George
town field. On any other diamond in
Washington a runner could have made
only two bases on the hit, but as the
spheroid rolled over the embaukncnt
and could not be caDtured by The ont
posts, Apperious completed the four
bag circuit. After that Fulcher steadied
himself and there was no more long
distance swatting. and even singles were

Drills Fine Game.

Drill pitched a mastery game, but
the Columbians were on their mettle
and met his benders squarely on the
nose whenever he stuck them over the
plate. Fulcher also twirled an excellept
game and had the contest taken place
on any other field in Washington the
score would have been tied at the con-
clusion of the ninth inning. All in all
the batting and fielding honors were
even. Six hits were procured off of each
twirler. and four errors, none of which
allowed runs to be scored. were made
by both teams.

Bowling the Reliable.

Bowling accepted his eleven chances
ct first base in approved fashion, and
also got in timely hit and scored a
run for his team. McGettigan got mixed
up with grounder in left meadow and
was given an error. At the bat, how
ever, he made good. and besides getting
IL hit when it was badly needed, he
scored one Of his teams runs. Han

THE PENSION PLANK,

The following is the pension plank of
the Ohio Republican Platform:
"NearIy three thousand millions of dol
lars paid to pensioners since the Republi-
can party came into power, almost all of
it under legislation enacted without dis
senting Republican vote in Congress, but
always against Democratic opposition, at
test the contrast between the parties In
this respect, and yet further liberality was
evidenced by the pension legislation Of the
last Congress"
This plank would have been more SYM
rnetrical if it had included statement
that more than G, 900 millions had been paid
the bond-holders during the same time in
interest, premiums, ETC., on q loan which
was less than the donations to the coun-
try by the men who served it through the
differences between their pay and the
wages they would have received Mt home.
1t is entirely creditable to the Government
that they have dealt thus literally with
the men who lent it money, but it would
seem that equal liberaiity is demanded
for those who gave it something much
more precious than money.
