George Washington Loses to
Georgetown.

The buff and blue went down in defeat.
George Washington University lost to
Georgetown University yesterday afternoon
upon Georgetown Field by a score of - to
3. The story of the game tells of another
batting streak of the blue and gray. George
Washington University played a valiant
game, but the heavy hitters of Georgetown,
who have made so many pitchers feel that
they wished they were out of the box, had
on their batting clothes and the game could
have but one ending
Many ladies We're in attendance, and the
remnants of the blue and gray and buff
and blue We're everywhere waved by the
fair sex after a play was made by the team
in which they were most interested.
Holland pitched for George Washington
University and with the exception of that
fatal eighth inning pitched a steady game.
After the onslaught of the Georgetown Uni
versity batters he was taken out of the box
and Thomas substituted. The crowd in at
tendance was large and the rOOterS for both
colleges were out in force. Capt. Morgan
of the blue and gray was on third for his
team, and though he has two errors to his
credit, he played a good game at all times.
The eighth inning saw one of the most
remarkable batting streaks that George
town University has ever INDUCED in. They
began hitting the ball at the start, and
before the last man was out they had
smashed the ball all over the lot and piled
up six runs to their credit. The game was
then beyond redemption, so far as the buff
and blue was concerned, judging from the
form that they had previously displayed
during the game. Larry brennan is a
good, steady pitcher, and Georgetown Uni
versity did right in keeping him in the box
after George Washington University had
scored three runs in the eighth inning. He
displayed good form throughout the con-
taSt ppI1r -i,1cr fla huff alt1n
hits during the game. Larkin and Hart
made home run hits, Scheller a threebag
ger, and Morgan two-bagger For George
Washington University, Bruce Belaski
played fine game, both in the field and at
the bat Asquith showed up well in the
batting, he getting two out of the three
hits made off Drennan's superb delivery.
Asquith is an old Church Lacquer and good
playing is always expected of him.
