DOWNED YALE AGAIN.
Georgetown Beat Dark Blue, for Sec
ond Time, 8 to 6.

Georgetown University defeated Yale on
Georgetown field yesterday afternoon by a
score of to 6. 1t was the second victory
| OF the Blue and Gray over the sons of Eli
| The grand stand was again crowded with
| beautifully gowned women, and while many
carried the streamers of the boys from New
Haven, the majority were for GEORGETOWN
Yale seems woefully weak in the pitching
| department, and, in fact, there is something
radlcally wrong with the playing of the
| whole team. They have none Of the root
ing spirit. as displayed by the sons of Mas
sau- Erwin, who caught yesterday for the
| ELS during the earlier part of the game de-
! hberateiy threw to second base to catch a
| runner VINO was going from first when a
| man VINO was coming from third base was
| WITHIN ten feet of the home plate This wa
! play that could never be forgiven and
was IN such contrast to the playing of
Hart, who can be depended upon To never
| DO such thing, even In the most exciting
part of game Larry brennan pitched
| the game for Georgetown University, and
| II III nao been necessary for him to have
| won the game by his pitching the Rlue and
! Gray would have lost. Bell was in the box
| for Yale during the first four innings. and
| IN the fourth Howard Smith, the third base
| left field " W
| The Blue and Gray then began batting
streak and before they had stopped the ball
| mad been smashed all over the lot and
| oSoi SEWN University mad piled up five
| runs Then Pratt was substituted for Bell
| by Yale and during the remainder of the
game the Blue and Gray only hit his deliv-
cry safeIy twice, though this was In no
| way due to superior pitching on his part
| Tor Georgetown University found absolutely
| no trouble In connecting with his delivery
| but the ball seemed each time to go right
| into a helders hand In the eighth inning
II seemed for time that Yale would pull
| herself together and possibly tie the score
| OF the Blue and Gray, but after two men
| mad crossed the plate the sons of Eli could
| do no more. A long hit in both this inning
and the ninth might have tied the score and
prolonged the game to some extent but II
| was not forthcoming, for the GEORGETOWN
| held gathered in everything In sight which
| looked like hit. Hart had on his batting
| clothes yesterday and smashed the ball in
| Ills usual fashion. getting three hits Han
| retty got two, a home run and a three
| Dagger Howard Smith, the little third
| Ddseman, and McGettigan each got two
| Twice the ball went over the bank in right
and center field for home runs and the
| crowd cheered. Ralph Byram, the Prince
| ton pitcher, was spectator at the game
| he occupying seat with the representatives
| of the press. Byram was studying the Yale
| batsmen, but to many 1t hardly seemed
| necessary. for if he could keep the heavy
| hitters of the Blue and Gray so completely
at his mercy during two games as he
| showed he could do, he will certainly have
| no trouble in doing the same thing to the
| Ellis In the annual game. brennan Is a
| pitcher who must be watched all the time
! by the runner on the bases, for he has a.
quick throw to first from the box that one
rarely sees. He caught several runners yes
| terday. b. Smith, the Yale right fielder
| got three hits, one being a two-bagger and
| he together with Erwin, the big catcher
| got five of the nine hits made by the Ellis.
