Mortified players assumed the leading roles

gopher players started a procession which did
not end until the ninth inning. When Mime
sofa man failed to connect for hit he was
presented with score thru the weakness OF the
Carleton infelders, and it was almost impossible
to Judge of the ability Of the Minnesota men
at the bat.
In the, field the gophers showed fairly well.
Calweu at shortstop had day of. and he was
responsible for three Of the five Minnesota err
rors. Pidgeon, too, landed In the error column,
and his drop Of fly ball in the seventh with
three men on bases, responsible for the
lone tally accumulated by the Carleton aggrega'
ton.
For the Minnesota team Boyle did excellent
fielding, and Right Fielder Hurley distinguished
himself by pulling down some difficult fouls
Marshall, too, was in the game to good advan'
tage.

sofa pitchers used by Coach Anderson yesterday,
and both made good. Not hit was made of
Volstead in the five innings he twirled, ant
McGroarty only allowed his opponents one hit
during the remainder of the game. Frank Fisgc
