They who went to Washburn field
last Saturday afternoon with visions Of
seeing Kansas university team with
such satellites as Moore, Tucker, Hall,
Parent, White. Boyle. ct al, play base
ball with Washburn, suffered a bitter
disappointment. Evidently either the
cliff dwellers down on Mount Dread at
Lawrence have badly deteriorated in
the art of baseball, or Washburn has
undergone a course of evolution under
Topeka's nose, and the city didn't know
it. The score was to 0. X. u. de-
served the goose egg which it received
1t about describes the merits of its
team. After the struggle was over the
manager apologized for the poor show
ing of his men by saying: Il think
the boys were up just little too late
Friday night" 1t would be necessary,
however, for the representatives of the
state university on the diamond this
year, to go to bed every night at 8
O'Clock for year, to even make a
showing against the present aggrega-
ton OF Missionaries.
Griggs was on the firing line for the
local collegians, and as usual when he
has great real to do, he does it all
WELL and minor jobs in proportion. He
gave just three hits and permitted not
solitary one to get to third base, hold
ing them absolutely at his mercy. Elev-
en- he famed, of which number, Henry
and Woodford both sawed three times.
At the bat, Griggs starred, making
homerun with men on first and second
IN the third inning, a two-bagger in
the first inning, and a single in the
sixth inning. In the third Washburn
counted four on Mehrs single, Griggs'
homerun and Anderson's two-bag ger.
In the sixth Mehl, Pulliam and Griggs,
the heavy hitting trio of the local col
legfans, raped out the ball for three
cir ole
more. In the fifth inning Anderson ana
DadiSman formed a partnership on the
hitting business and Anderson brought
in the dividends by making a score.
outside of the points, Anderson and
Dadisman played excellent games.
Mohler played better than ever before
on the home grounds. Pulliam is
learning not to pull away from the in
itial sack end but one error for that
action was charged against him Sat
urday
A young man by the name of Pyle.
who is the K U. blue ribbon pitcher
this year, was in6the box: The local
collegians seemed to hit him with ap-
parent ease. He has, however, six
strike-outs to his credit, but better
than that he did not let q single man
walk. This latter fact may be explain
ed by stating that none of the Wash
burn batters permitted four balls to
be thrown to MIN without hitting
about three of them foul. Pyle used
nUIle jump pal, anQ the WdSnDuInlCeS
would foul them off with amazing reg
ularity
Moore, the ex-Topeka Lacquer UNI
pired the game and gave absolute sat
isfaction. The visitors kicked on him
hard, but it was of no avail They'll
kick on anything" said Manager
Leach as he came off the diamond be-
tween innings from a conference with
the K. U. captain who wanted Moore
removed.
K. .. is nopeIessly out of the running
this year with Washburn. The team
defeated Iowa university twice by big
scores last week, and the wearers of
the crimson believed themselves pen
nant winners. But they didn't come up
to advance notices. The State Agricul-
tural college defeated them with COM
parative ease last Friday. This is the
second game which they have dropped
to Wasnburn this year. There are no
more on the schedule.
1t evidently looks as if Washburn
has the champion college baseball
team of this territory. Kansas defeat
ed Missouri and Iowa both, and Wash
burn simply Outclasses Kansas. Early
in the season the Emporia Normal de-
feated Washburn, and that is in rea1-
ty all that stands between the local
collegians and a clear record 1t IS
likely that Nit WHITES pets and
Washburn win get together shortly for
