BUSY DAY AT BENNING.
Many Stables Arrived at the Track
Yesterday

From daylight to dark and throughout the
rain and snow of yesterday there were few
idle moments at the Benning race track
grounds for the attendants and employees
of the different stables. Special trains
backed on the siding at Benning at inter-
walls throughout the day, bringing in the
thoroughbreds from Pimlico and also from
the New York tracks. A large crowd of
onlookers journeyed to the track to see
the arrivals. and there would have been
thousands with clear weather. Little SYM
pathy was expressed for the stable at
taches, as they all appeared in good humor,
wading through the slush and mud. with
faces wreathed in smiles and whstling
popular tunes. =
OF the hundreds of horses taken from the
cars and made comfortable in the stables
at the Benning track, the following are the
most prominent:

BLUE AND aRAY's VICTORY.
Defeated Bucknell Boys in Brilliant
Game, 12 to O.

Notwithstanding the cool. clustering
weather of Saturday afternoon, nearly
three thousand foot ball enthusiasts gath
cred. on Georgetown field to witness the
battle between the Blue and Gray and
Bucknell The contest was hard-fought
one all the way, Georgetown coming off
victorious by the score of II to 0.
The Bucknell boys were not well known
In Washington. and for this reason 1t was
the general opinion that Georgetown would
have an exceptionally easy game. The
Blue and Gray players were fully advised
as to BucknelIs, prowess, and went into
the game knowing that they would have
to do their best to win. From start to
finish 1t was Georgetowns game but at
that only two goals scould be secured, one
In the first half and one In the second.
The TWO teams were very close together as
to weight, but when 1t came to carrying
the ball with interference. Blue and Gray
had speed to give away. The condition of
both teams was well nigh perfect, and as
a result there was very little time taken
out of the game on account of injuries.
With the exception of Hub Hart, all the
players put up a good game, this young
mans playing being head and shoulders
over everybody else, his work standing cut
like white chalk mark on blackboard
He seemed to go through, over the top or
around the ends at will, and 1t was only q
question Of handing him the ball when a
decided gain was needed. Hart scored both
of the touchdowns. and when he downed
Cockrell with a magnificent tackle he pre-
vented Bucknell from scoring on the Blue
and Gray.
The first touchdown was made In fifteen
minutes. Capt. Johnson kicked of for
Buckneli and the ball was caught by Larkin
and returned 20 yards. Larkin. Hart and
Capt Mahoney worked the oval to the CEN
ter of the field when 1t was lost on a FUN
Bile. Buclxneil gained only yards and
Johnson puEted to McGettisnn. who return
ed 10 yards. Larkin and Mahoney advanced

terferers. After he had gone forty-seven
yards Starr tackled him, and Just az he
was about TO be thrown Reed threw the
ball to the ground, and It bounded into
McManus arms. The latter had a clear
field and scored a touchdown, with no Har-
ward man within tw4pty yards OF him The
play covered about 8fnety-four yards
With the exception of this score, Holy
Cross was not dangerous. Reed got clear
three times. bt5&two Of the times he spoiled
his chances OF scoring in getting ahead OF
his interference IN trying to work the trick
that was finally successful. Had he kept
behind his tntFferers he would have had
more than an seven chance to score three
times. The gama vast fast throughout.
