ANOTHER GREAT GAME.
Princeton Defeated Georgetown for the
Second Time, l to O.

Again the husky young men representing
Georgetown University went down in de-
feat before the Princeton Tigers upon
Georgetown field yesterday afternoon. The
score was I to Q. Georgetown put up a
marvellous game of ball at all times, and
never did they let up until the sides had
been retired in the last inning Before the
game Georgetown had sworn revenge, and
the way they went after the Tigers in the
effort to defeat them will be long remem-
bered by those who viewed the game. But
their efforts were of no avail. The "Hoyas'
of the "Preps' did much to urge on George
town University. The crowd which was in
attendance was large, as the Tigers nave
big following in the capital city, and
the way they cheered yesterday showed
their allegiance to old Nassau is not to
be doubted, even though they may have
been out of college for some years. The
girls. beautifully gowned, crowded the
grand stand and waved the banners of
orange and black and the streamers of
Georgetown Uuiversity's blue and gray.
The alumni representation of Princeton was
lined up in the bleachers and they cheered
and cheered for victory to come to the
sons of their alma mater, who were play
ing such a wonderful game at that mo-
ment. The Georgetown rooters also show
ed some spirit. for throughout the game they
rang a coWbell that could be heard through
out the grounds and the cheering was in
cessant. Hughey Jennings was on the bench

some extent for the fine exhibitions which
they have given. Wells, the second base
man of the Princeton team, won the game
for his side by planting liner in right field
which got away from both Burns and White
and landed in the raVine back of the field,
he crossing the four sacks for the only run
of the game In the first inning of the game
things began to look squally as far as the
Blue and Gray were concerned. Forsythe.
the first batter up, sent a liner past Aver
to center field. Aver at this moment seemed
as though he did not know quite what to do
and allowed Helm to walk Two men were
then on bases Forsythe on third and Helm
on second This was enough to unnerve a
pitcher, Forsythe Is one of the fastest
sprinters on the Tiger team. Cooney, the
next man up, hit long fly to Keane, and
the moment it landed in the hands of the
left fielder Forsythe- started for home, but
Keane made wonderful throw and caught
him at the plate, retiring the side and re-
lieving the situation as far as the Blue
and Gray was concerned. Princeton, during
the first four innings, was represented upon
the slab by ID. Doyle, but while Georgetown
| University could make no inroads upon his
delivery, Coach Hildebrand did not know,
| but that they would hammer out victory
| at any moment and be substituted the in
vincible Byram, who so thoroughly impress
| ed those who saw the game on Saturday,
as being one of the most remarkable pitch
| ers who has ever pitched game on George
| town University field. Several signs were
| heard in the Georgetown section of the
| grand stand, and the girls who carried the
| blue and gray streamers seemed particular
| ly chagrined, some remarking 'it's all over. -
| Byram took his stand in the pitchers box
| and those lightning shoots which created
| so much havoc in the ranks Of the Blue and
| Gray on Saturday afternoon commenced
| again, and he seemed to have last none of
| the wonderful speed he displayed the other
| day. Doyle was evidently not striking out
| enough Georgetown batters to suit the
| coach, and he evidently thought that as the
score was SO close he would not trifle, but
put in the sure thing" Byram kept ur
| his record of last week and the heavy
| hitters of the heights did like they did last
| week, famed some more. They managed to
| get one hit and seven men struck out.
| Aver, for Georgetown. pitched the whole
| game for his team and kept well up with
| the work of Doyle for the Tigers, but In
| the matter of strikeouts neither could ap-
| proach Byram. Hart had on his batting
| clothes yesterday and proved that he could
| connect with the delivery of the invincble
| Byram, he getting two hits during the
| game. one off Byram. McGettigan played
| a better game than he has been playing
during the past week or so, having only one
| error to his credit. The whole Georgetown
| University team played a remarkable field.
